Hallo guys,

i observed that a smaller expanded length leads to an increased tubesheet thickness.

This is not fully plausible to me...

Now my question is where do i find this in UHX 12 of ASME VIII division 1

Im looking for that equation but i couldnd find something in this chapter

Can anyone help me out where i exactly i find this?

Thank you BR Stefan
