ASME UHX - TUBESHEET THICKNESS DECIDE
ASME UHX - TUBESHEET THICKNESS DECIDE
(OP)
Dear Expert,
Refer attached the U type tubesheet sketch.
My questions is what the tubesheet thickness should I use for comparison to calculation.
Effective tubesheet thickness = "T - Hg" or "T - Hg - H2"
Which is correct ?

RE: ASME UHX - TUBESHEET THICKNESS DECIDE
You don't show a thickness dimension for the rim at the bolt circle, but if bolt loads are transferred thru it, it is subject to the rules of UHX 9. If bolt loads are not transferred then dimension "T-2*H2" is subject to the same.
