HTRI Tube layout
HTRI Tube layout
(OP)
Dear all,
I'm trying to rate existing HE with the data as below :
Shell Type : BEU
ID shell : 37 inch
No. of shells in paralel / series : 1/1
tube OD : 0.75 inch
wall thickness : 0.083 inch
Tube pitch : 0.9375
Tube pitch ratio : 1.25
Tube layout angle : 90
tubepass : 2
length :12 ft
Tubes to remove for tie rods : 8
However with this data i cannot get 38 tubes in the first line of tube (see attached pict).
event if i modified the tube pitch, tubes number always odd cannot be even number.
Thank you for any help,
Andi

RE: HTRI Tube layout
In the input section, go to tube layout and set "offset tube" to yes or no. Play around with that toggle.
RE: HTRI Tube layout
and no toggle to be adjust in bundle layout option.
RE: HTRI Tube layout
1- Go to the input
2- Open up the geometry subsection
3- Click on tube layout
4- The drop down menu that you should be altering is "Staggered Layout Shifted"
Side note, this is based on HTRI v7. I don't know if previous versions are different.
