Abstract:
The oil and gas field deals with various processes such as refining, chemical mixings and blending, liquefaction, purification, storage of fluids and chemicals under stipulated pressure and temperature requires boilers, tubes and pipes, heat exchanger pressure vessels, etc. These have been a very important part of technical and technological systems such as chemical and reactive processes in Oil and gas field. This project work deals with a detailed DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF BEM TYPE HEAT EXCHANGER taken as a problem definition from client Al Hammra – U.A.E. A detailed design of various parts of vessels like shell, closure, 55 support, flanges, nozzles etc. Design is carried according to rules of ASME code section VIII; Division I. The ASME is an American Society of Mechanical Engineers that regulates the design and construction of boilers and pressure vessels. The BPVC is a standard that provides rules for the design, fabrication and inspection of boilers and pressure vessels. Code provides rules that permit the use of materials and alternative methods of construction that are not covered by existing BPVC rules. The analytical design as per client Al Hammra – U.A.E design data and general notes have been analyzed and validated using Software tools such as PV-elite, Compress or ANSYS, and detailed modelling using Auto- CAD tool. It also deals with the study of various parts like flanges, support etc. Various methods of fabrication and testing such as LPT, RT, and Hydro Test are also included.
