Preface
Excessive flow‐induced vibration causing failures by fatigue or fretting wear must be avoided in process and nuclear components. That is the purpose of this handbook. In this book, the term process components is used generally to describe nuclear reactor internals, nuclear fuels, piping systems, and all shell‐and‐tube heat exchangers, including nuclear steam generators, power plant condensers, boilers and coolers.
There are already a number of good books on flow‐induced vibration. So, why another one? This handbook is to help engineers to design, operate, and diagnose heat transfer equipment. The emphasis in this handbook is on two‐phase flow‐induced vibration. Despite the fact that roughly half of all heat exchanger equipment operates in two‐phase flow, previous flow‐induced vibration texts have provided limited guidance regarding vibration induced by two‐phase flow. The prediction of fretting‐wear damage is another important priority. The state of the art is presented in the design guidelines, figures and tables. The use of these design guidelines is illustrated with example calculations. To assist students and new design engineers, the calculations are supplemented and presented with more explanation in an appendix.
Largely, this handbook is the outcome of some 40 years of research and development at the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories. The emphasis of this book is the presentation of design guidelines based on extensive analysis of the literature and, in particular, on experimental data obtained in the field and at the Canadian Nuclear Laboratories in Chalk River.
We believe that this book will be useful to engineering design firms in the nuclear, petrochemical and aerospace industries, graduate schools in mechanical engineering and technical support groups in operating nuclear and petrochemical plants. This handbook is not a textbook, although it could be used as a resource in a graduate course. We also hope that this book will help to stimulate further research in the area of two‐phase flow‐induced vibration.
