Description
Summary:Shell and Tube Heat Exchangers (STHE) are being widely used in chemical process industries. These exchangers can be deployed for the heating, cooling, condensation, boiling, decomposition and evaporation operations. The failure of these exchangers is frequently experienced in industries. Moreover, the loss of containment scenarios from these heat exchangers could potentially create a fire and explosion events. Lack of consideration in inherently safer design and inadequate safety analysis are considered as the noticeable issues in the failure of these heat exchangers. The frequency of credible events from the various leak scenarios of these heat exchangers can be effectively reduced by applying inherently safer design (ISD) strategies.
