ACHE Tube Sheet PDF

The document analyzes the membrane and bending stresses in different parts of an air cooled heat exchanger at various design temperatures. It provides the actual stress, allowed stress, and stress ratio for the tube sheet and plug sheet of stationary and floating heads. All stress ratios are below 1, indicating the stresses are within acceptable limits based on the material allowable stress at the given design temperatures.
