This paper describes a method for calculating stresses and deflections in perforated plates with a triangular penetration pattern. The method is based partly on theory and partly on experiment. Average ligament stresses are obtained from purely theoretical considerations but effective elastic constants and peak stresses are derived from strain measurements and photoelastic tests. Acceptable limits for pressure stresses and thermal stresses in heat exchanger tube sheets are also proposed.

Abstract In an earlier paper it was indicated that perforated plates of triangular layout, with narrow ligaments, as they occur, for instance, in heat-exchanger tube sheets, can be treated in plane-stress calculations as solid sheets of suitable elastic moduli, provided that the stress distribution does not vary appreciably from hole to hole. This paper completes that study by providing suitable curves (Figs. 4, 8), from which deformations and stresses can be read off in terms of the values calculated for solid sheets, for mechanical, thermal, and gravitational loads.

Exchanger Tube

Thermoacoustic instabilities, caused by the feedback between unsteady heat release and acoustic pressure perturbations, are characterised by large-amplitude pressure oscillations. These oscillations, if uncontrolled, pose a threat to the integrity of combustion systems. One strategy to mitigate them is by installing cavity-backed perforated plates with bias flow into the combustion chamber. In this study, we consider a generic combustor configuration: a one-dimentional tube (with open and/or closed ends) containing a compact heat source and a heat exchanger tube row. The idea is to use the heat exchanger tube row as a device (analogously to a cavity-backed perforated plate) to manipulate the downstream end condition. We simulate the row of heat exchanger tubes by a slit-plate with bias flow. We derive the characteristic equation for the complex eigenfrequencies of this set-up. From the growth rates (imaginary parts of the eigenfrequencies), we construct stability maps for various system parameter combinations. The results, obtained for the first two modes of the system, show that by varying the cavity length or the bias flow velocity through the slits, we can stabilise a previously unstable combustion system.

This paper introduces the development of the current model Moisture Separator Reheater (MSR) for nuclear power plant (NPP) turbines, commercially placed in service in the period 1984–1997, focusing on the mist separation performance of the MSR along with drainage from heat exchanger tubes. A method of predicting the mist separation performance was devised first based on the observation of mist separation behaviors under an air-water test, then developed for the application to predict under the steam conditions, followed by the verification in comparison with the actual results of a steam condition test. The instability of tube drainage associated with both sub-cooling and temperature oscillation, which may adversely affect the seal welding of tubes to tube sheet owing to thermal fatigue, was measured on an existing unit both to clarify the behaviors and to develop a method to suppress them. Both methods were applied to current model MSR and the effectiveness of the methods was demonstrated. A new concept MSR for 1,700 MW class APWR units is put in perspective based on the technologies, alongside a multidisciplinary optimum design evaluating the heat exchanger tube bundle.
