Dear All,
Could you please advise if we could use HTRI to design SRU Waste Heat Boiler (WHB) using HTRI? If yes, please advise how to do it. Thx

I hope others know what your abbreviations mean, but next time use the full words and not abbreviations and add as much detail as you can about your particular query

RE: WHB Thermal Design
Thank you for your response. I am asking for thermal design not mechanical. I agree with you, we could use ASME for mechanical parts. Any clue about thermal design? Thx

You can use HTRI to design SRU (Sulfur Recovery Unit) WHB. However, as you mentioned, you must use it with caution. Typically with SRU WHB there are other parameters, such as the velocity range of the sulfur gas which must be considered. Most of the design criteria considered in SRU WHB are proprietary to the SRU licensors as are most SRU equipment (condensers, reheaters, reflux condensers). If you've been commissioned to design a SRU WHB and have never done one before, I would recommend consulting with an engineer/company that has experience in these type of exchangers. They are very complex and can be problematic if designed incorrectly.
