U tubes

7.7.2 U – tubes shall meet following requirements:

A. All tubes shall be seamless and Normalized.

B. Tubes shall be cold bent (see also para.8.10.5).

C.Unroundness of the bent section shall not exceed +6% of tube nominal diameter.

E. The bending radius shall not be less than1.5 times the tube nominal diameter.

F. Each U – tube shall be formed from a single length. The length specified shall

be the straight length measured from end to return bend tangent.

G. If temperature differential of over 110°C. occurs between legs of any U–tube,

stress analysis is required to keep stresses within permitted limits.

H. Minimum wall thickness in the bent portion before bending shall be in

accordance with TEMA.Also, refer to RCB-2.323, IPS-G-ME-220.

Material of tube baffles, spacers, and tie rods, shall be compatible with tube

material. For example carbon steel baffles should not be used with nonferrous or

stainless steel tubes. Any exceptions shall be specified on the Process Data

Sheet.

All carbon steel “U” bends shall be stress relieved after bending including a

minimum of 600mm from tangent point in accordance with ASME Code. As a

minimum the requirements for spot radiography shall be met.
