Hi everybody,
I would like to ask a simple question, regarding a heat exchanger U stamp under Asme viii div 1.
Considering that are two differents codes, Is the heat exchanger required to fulfill all the requirements of TEMA (i.e. minimal thickness, baffles, etc...), it relays directly in...

The steels tensile and yield strength, thus the allowable stresses, drops when diameter increases due to fabrication process. When the thickness increases the material cooling slows and the grain structure is larger. If the material is thin, the cooling of the material during...
