Design and Fabrication Shell-and-Tube Heat Exchangers in Accordance to Asme and Tema Codes Course
Introduction:
This course is designed around the guidelines outlined in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section VIII, Division 1, and TEMA for the design and fabrication of heat exchangers. It aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the Code's requirements, covering aspects such as design, materials, fabrication, inspection, and testing.
The course will highlight the importance of effectively utilizing the Code to meet design and construction requirements. It will include in-depth discussions and demonstrations of design calculations for various heat exchanger components, including the shell side, tube side, saddles, lifting lugs, and more.
Additionally, the course will review the ASME Code requirements for obtaining a certificate of authorization with the "U" stamp. Participants will also learn about computer-aided engineering programs used in pressure vessel design and how to utilize spreadsheet software such as Excel for pressure vessel design purposes.
By the end of the course, participants will have a thorough understanding of the ASME Code requirements for heat exchanger design and fabrication. They will be equipped with the knowledge and skills to effectively apply the Code's guidelines in their professional practice, ensure compliance, and design heat exchangers that meet industry standards and regulations.
Course Objectives:
This course aims at improving the capability of the participating engineers to design and fabricate and test of heat exchangers.
Who Should Attend?
This course is designed to meet the needs of engineering and manufacturing organizations and users of Code that have to comply with TEMA and ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel requirements. The course is a “must” for new employees who have been given the responsibility for heat exchangers or for any persons who need initial or increased familiarity with Code applies to the design and construction of heat exchangers will benefit by attending this course.
