Who Should Attend? & Training Objetives

This course is intended for graduates (or soon to be), designers, freelancers, technicians and engineers involved in: calculation, design, selection, manufacturing, safety, quality and maintenance of systems and equipment in industrial processes.

Previous knowledge of this subject is not required to attend to the course.

The main objective of this course is to transfer to participants the theoretical and practical skills required in projects, obtained from experience and sound engineering practices.

What to Expect?

Course participants will gain the knowledge for design of safe and economical Shell & Tube Heat Exchangers used in industrial applications.

At the end of the course, participants will be able to design the main parts of a Shell & Tube Heat Exchanger under all types of possible loadings, stored product, internal / external pressure, wind and earthquake among others. At the end of the course participants will:

  • Know the code organization and will acquire the vocabulary and fundamentals.
  • Learn to design and calculate the main parts of a S&T Heat Exchanger.
  • Benefit from Lessons Learned and Best Practices from different international projects.
  • Define the wind profile and seismic loading.
  • Design and calculate stiffener rings due to vacuum.
  • Learn to perform the S&T Heat Exchangers stability verification and to define the anchoring requirement due to seismic and wind.
  • Design and calculate the shell due to internal and external pressure.
  • Design and calculate different types of nozzles.
  • Learn to design and calculate non-standard flanges (Body Flanges).
  • Master the joint efficiency concept.
  • Design the Tube Bundle and calculate the Tubesheet thickness.
  • Determine the heat transfer Tubes thickness.
  • Learn to Select Materials for heat exchangers.
