Re-purposing A Heat exchanger to a Higher Temp Lower Pressure
Re-purposing A Heat exchanger to a Higher Temp Lower Pressure
(OP)
Hello all,
I am wanting to slight alter the operation of one of out heat exchangers.
316L Shell and tube heat exchanger
Existing rating 400F @ 180PSI
Proposed conditions maximum temp/pressure 550F @70PSI
My assumption is the temperature increase will have little effect on the pressure rating.
Is there anything required by code to operate under these conditions?
