Organic Fluid Vaporizers

[joshua1]

Does anyone have experience in using Part PVG of the ASME B&PV Code which contains additional requirements for Organic Fluid Vaporizers? What type of equipment fits this catergory?

An example would be a heater, which changes the phase of a liquid such a heat transfer oil. Usually the liquid is condensed as a part of the process it is supply heat to and consequently re evaporated through the heater again. As this evaporation usually has to take place above atmospheric pressure the ASME requirements have to be met.

Hope this helps
