Hi All,
A scenario that has come up where we purchase evaporator coils from suppliers for refrigeration purposes.
However, none of the coil designers or suppliers ever seem to supply nozzle loads.
Effectively this would mean we should design the piping and supports in such a way that there is little to no nozzle force or moment on the nozzle, e.g 50 Newtons.
Is there a better/common approach to this situation?
Should we be assessing the coil design, e.g tube size and material, and how it is supported in itself then determine the allowable nozzle load?
I am at a Technician level so would appreciate some advice to expand my knowledge.
Cheers.
