Ian Wyatt - Atkins
JIP on Bursting Disks for Shell & Tube Exchangers – 2nd Stakeholders Meeting
Heat Exchanger Design - Essential
•
HE 1. Establish design criteria and engineering analysis
requirements to assess if guillotine fracture is credible based on
the following:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The mechanical properties of the materials of construction used in heat
exchanger tubes, baffles, etc.
Degradation of the materials through corrosion or erosion.
Minimum tube thickness specification required to prevent guillotine
fracture.
Vibration analysis to ensure that the likelihood of guillotine fracture is
minimised.
Sensitivity analysis of process variations which should be carried out as
part of the engineering analysis to ensure that the design is robust, e.g.
flow, pressure, temperature etc.
Gathering industry heat exchanger data.
Heat Exchanger Design - Essential
•
HE 2. Establish design criteria that determine when transient
effects need to be considered for overpressure protection of
STHEs:
•
•
•
Determine if differential pressure limits can be established below which
transient effects from a tube rupture can be ignored.
Determine the maximum allowable transient overpressures (peak pressure
and duration) in the shell, under tube rupture conditions, below which fast
acting pressure relief is not required. Extend the University of Sheffield
work on heat exchanger stress distribution.
HE 3. Determine the impact of transient loads on the piping
systems if bursting disks are not applied for overpressure and
develop appropriate design guidelines to ensure that the piping
design is robust but not overly conservative.
Relief Device Selection - Essential
•
RD 1. Conduct shock tube tests at the same scale as typical relief
device sizes encountered in real applications to establish the
response times under a range of overpressures (150-400%).
•
RD 2. Establish mechanical integrity criteria for relief valves for
use in tube rupture service.
•
RD 3. Establish the range of process conditions for which
conventional relief valves could be utilised to protect against
tube rupture and those for which bursting disks are required.
This needs to consider aspects such as differential design
pressure between low and high pressure side of exchanger, relief
device speed of response etc. Alternate relief valve types and
manufacturers’ products will be taken into account.
Design Guidelines - Essential
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
DG 1. A design decision flowchart that takes designers through
the engineering analysis required to develop the overpressure
protection design for a shell and tube heat exchanger.
DG 2. Relief device selection criteria for tube rupture.
DG 3. Relief device set-point selection criteria.
DG 4. Design criteria for overpressure protection of piping
connected to heat exchangers.
DG 5. Design criteria for the interface between the relief devices
and the relief disposal (flare) system.
DG 6. Lessons learned from operating experience of STHEs.
DG 7. Instrumentation requirements for detection of tube rupture
and bursting disk rupture.
