TEMA Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers

Figure B.l shows the American TEMA (Tubular Exchanger Manufacture Association) standards that are largely accepted. The codification makes use of three letters that indicate the type of stationary head, shell and rear head, respectively. One of the most common types is AES or AEL that designate removable channel and cover (A), one-pass shell (E) and fixed tube sheet (L) or floating-rear (S). A similar...

TEMA Numbering and Type Designation Recommended practice for the designation of TEMA-style shell-and-tube heat exchangers by numbers and letters has been established by the Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Association (TEMA). This information from the sixth edition of the TEMA Standards is reproduced in the following paragraphs.

The Tubular Exchanger Manufacturers Assn, has established heat exchanger standards and nomenclature. Every shell-and-tube device has a three-letter designation the letters refer to the specific type of stationary head at the front end, the shell type, and the rear-end head type, respectively (a fully illustrated description can be found in the TEMA standards). Common TEMA designations are listed with specific configurations described below.

The various components which make up a shell and tube heat exchanger are shown in Figures 9.63 and 9.64 and these are now considered. Many different mechanical arrangements are used and it is convenient to use a basis tor classification. The standard published by the Tubular Exchanger Manufacturer s Association (TEMA 97 ) is outlined here. It should be added that noting that Saunders 98 has presented a detailed discussion of design codes and problems in fabrication.
