ABSTRACT
However, for offshore applications, long exchangers, especially with removable bundles, are often very difficult to install and maintain economically because of space limitations [7]. In this case, shorter and larger shells are preferred despite their higher price per unit heat-transfer surface. Standard lengths as per TEMA standard RCB-2.1 are 96, 120, 144, 196, and 240 in. Other lengths may be used.
