Heat exhanger FE

Heat exchangers are subjected to very high temperatures and to extreme temperature gradients. This potentially causes very high stresses. 

Bright Engineering regularly makes plate models of heat exchangers to determine. These models are used to calculate the stresses due to the steady state temperatures of the steel. Where necessary, we propose changes to the construction. On top of the temperatures, the constructions are loaded by their self weight as well as wind and earthquake loads.
