    Appendix 2 Figure 2-4(11) integral

    "2-4(11) refers to Figure UW-13.2 sketches (m)": NO See sketch (n)

    Appendix 2 Figure 2-4(11) integral

    Yes, Its design is full penetration, integral flange.

    Double rail GMGC - PCC-1&WRC538

    A drawing is better.

    External Pressure Stiffner Ring

    Be careful (OP) only refers to external pressure. E=1 without RT. 100% RT does not guarantee the absence of leaks. 100% RT does not replace leak testing.

    Shell forming method with low out of roundness for thin shell

    How do you plan to make a cylindrical shell that fits perfectly with the head if you don't have the head yet?

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    The blind threaded stud hole is essential for thick walls. The stud is shorter and only has one nut. My experience: Reactor PV (nuclear): 76 M 220 studs, L = 2500 mm, 850 kg each.

    Fatigue - Nozzle Inside Corner Radius

    "...a generous radius on the inside corner of the nozzle..." This is very important in the manhole, in all situations. ALWAYS! Obviously!

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    This equipment requires rigorous detailed manufacturing analysis by an experienced team. Using the internet is not recommended at this time. I have never used popular calculation programs; I use my own. Be careful. Example: Avoid welding lifting lugs.

    External Pressure Stiffner Ring

    RT 100% the butt weld and 100% PT the fillet weld. More information is required to confirm the above: general dimensions, service, material, design pressure / temperature.

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    1) TEMA is a standard, not a code. 2) The 2 3/8" stud bolt is included in ASME B1.1, no problem. 3) The stud bolt (blind threaded hole), or whatever you prefer to call it, is clearly defined in ASME VIII. Please read it. 4) Do you think diaphragm seal is suitable for FV design?

    Overtightening a bolt beyond its recommended bolt load.

    Why not control the bolt elongation?

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    Tapped hole for stud: install the studs and avoid removing them.

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    Trestala said ".....a fixed tubesheet design would be preferable" How did you plan to perform PWHT with fixed tubesheet?

    TEMA DEU/CEU Heat Exchanger - Connection Challenges & Analysis

    What about of PWHT?. How did you plan to perform pressure test of shell side?.

    Can Service Pressure Exceed Design Pressure?

    See the calculated pressure in UG-99(c) with corrosion zero.

    Shell forming method with low out of roundness for thin shell

    No problem. First the heads must be at the manufacturer prior to rolling the shell.

    nozzle-head PWHT

    OK. I'm waiting for the drawing.
