I'm working on a project that is looking to use TEG as a heating medium to produce <50 psig steam from indirect heating of boiler feed water in a "package" type boiler (initial thoughts are tube-in-shell units). I've found plenty of information about glycol reboilers used in the gas dehydration...
I'm relatively inept at vibration analysis and frequency response, but I'm trying to predict vibration problems with tube and shell heat exchanger designs. I've followed J.M Chenoweth's guidelines in the Heat Exchanger Design Handbook and have come up with all the forcing frequencies (turbulent...
I've been charged with finding the pressure drop across a two pass shell side TEMA F heat exchanger with process vapor as the shell side fluid. Each pass is individually baffled with double segmental baffles. I've been trying to use Kern's equations for the pressure drop calculations but I...
