Details AutoPIPE Vessel Heat Exchanger

Technical Capabilities AutoPIPE Vessel Heat Exchanger

Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers:

• Designed to TEMA, CODAP, AD 2000, PD 5500, EN 13445, GOST, Chinese GB 151, and ASME standards.
• Full weld details of nozzles and reinforcement provided, including location of all component welds.
• Detailed component and General Assembly Drawings available.
• Design includes flanges, baffles, tubesheets, tube bundles, tie-rods, sealing strips, sliding rails, and support plates.
• Metal bellows expansion joints designed to ASME, EJMA, CODAP, EN, and AD standards.
• Design Flanged and Flued expansion joints based on TEMA 8th and 9th (Finite Element Method).
• Final drawing of the flattening of the shell profile with all nozzles, saddles, reinforcement, packing support, and more.
• Modeling interface and editing tools provided to optimize and configure the tube and baffle layout.
• Design for floating head single and multipass; U-bend; fixed tubesheet types; all shell types (E, F, G, H, J, K, X); all TEMA front and rear end types (i.e. channel types A, B, C, D, N and rear end types L, M, N, S, T, U, W), excluding P type.

Additional Features:

• Comprehensive design and modeling of equipment and structural components, including stiffening rings, platforms, saddles, skirts, legs, brackets, lifting lugs and trunnions, internal lining, and insulation.
• Export to 3D CAD formats including PDS, MicroStation, BricsCAD, AutoCAD, AutoPLANT, and SolidWorks.
• Supports U.S. customary and SI units (input also in kgf/cm2).
• Smart import of nozzle local load (sustained, thermal, and occasional) from Bentley’s AutoPIPE.
• QA formatted Microsoft Word reports for all designed components and full vessel loading cases, including bending moment diagrams, weld, nozzle, and flange sketches and full design code references.
• Governing load case (operating, installation, hydrotest, wind, blast, shutdown, motion or seismic) reported for calculation.
• Local load analysis to PD 5500 Annex G or G.2.8 Alt. rules, WRC 107, 297, 537, EN 13445, GOST, Roark.
• Saddle design with Zick analysis to ASME VIII Div 2, PD 5500, CODAP, EN 13445, AD, GOST, and Chinese NB/T 47042 standard.
• Comprehensive material databases for ASME, DIN, EN, GB-150, BS, GOST, ASTM, and NF (French) materials.
• Customizable company standards for saddle supports and nozzle loading.
• Occasional loading including wind, vortex shedding, seismic, motion, and blast loading.

Optimized Design:

• Evaluates erected, lifting, operating, test, blast, and shutdown loading conditions, and 5 additional user-defined load cases.
• Includes nozzle reinforcement, flange design, support design, and vessel deflection and rotation.
• Provides automatic detailed cost estimations (fully customizable in Excel).
• Wind, seismic (for most major global design codes), motion, blast, and vortex shedding loads evaluated, with fatigue calculations performed for weld joints.

Automatic Drawing Production:

• Automated detailed drawings generated in seconds.
• Creates 2D drawings in MicroStation, BricsCAD, and AutoCAD, and 3D models in MicroStation, AutoCAD, and Solidworks with a click of a button.
• Fully dimensioned engineering and manufacturing drawings provided.
• White space management and configurable drawing sheet layout.
• Customizable data and connection details to meet manufacturer standards.
• Bill of materials provided to meet company standard.
