Riser in a tubesheet
Riser in a tubesheet
(OP)
Dear Engineers.
I am required to design a tubesheet for bending, which has to carry 10 Risers on it. Each riser weights 300 kg.
The tubesheet is completely seal welded to the inside of the vessel.
Can anyone advise me, how to go about it.
Please see the attached sketch for reference.

78692Ali, are you sure that you are not being asked to work outside of your depth without a safety net?

Will the assembled vessel be shipped with its axis horizontal?
Chances are it will. Estimate the CG height of each riser.
That gives you localized bending around each riser's base.
