Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Floating Head Type for Tail Gas Heater ASME U STAMP

YUHONG Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger – Floating Head Type, designed and fabricated in compliance with ASME Section VIII Div. 1 and certified with the ASME U Stamp. The floating head design allows for easy disassembly, cleaning, and maintenance, making it ideal for handling tail gas heating in demanding industrial applications.

Advantages of Fixed Heat Exchangers

While this product is a floating head type, it is worth noting the advantages of fixed tube sheet heat exchangers, which are often suitable for less complex applications:

• Cost-Effective: Fixed tube sheet designs are simpler to fabricate and more economical compared to floating head types.
• Compact Design: They require less space, making them ideal for installations with limited room.
• Durability: With no moving parts, fixed tube sheet exchangers are robust and offer long service life in low to moderate temperature applications.
• Leak-Free Operation: Welded tube bundles eliminate external leakage risks.

Production Process

The production of the Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Floating Head Type involves the following key steps:

Tube Arrangement and Tolerances

The tube arrangement and center distance tolerances are critical to the heat exchanger's performance.

Heat Exchanger Functions

The Shell and Tube Heat Exchanger Floating Head Type for Tail Gas Heater is designed to:

• Transfer Heat: Efficiently exchanges heat between two fluids (e.g., tail gas and heating medium) without mixing them.
• Handle Thermal Expansion: The floating head design accommodates thermal expansion of the tube bundle, preventing thermal stress.
• Facilitate Maintenance: The floating head allows for easy removal of the tube bundle for cleaning and inspection, ensuring long-term efficiency.
• Operate in High Stress Conditions: Designed to withstand high pressures and temperatures, making it suitable for tail gas heating in refineries and chemical plants.
