Tubesheet analysis according standards and FEM
Horniak, Patrik ; Vincour, Dušan (referee) ; Pernica, Marek (advisor)
The focus of this master’s thesis is strength design of tube sheet, which is part of shell and tube heat exchanger, with fixed tube sheets. This tube sheet is integrated with both shell and channel of the heat exchanger. First part of the thesis is focused on literature review of shell and tube heat exchangers, tube sheets and calculation standards, which are used for their strength design. The strength design of tube sheet is presented in second part of the thesis, according to the standards: ČSN EN 13445, ASME BPVC VIII and TEMA, along with comparison of these standards. Last section of the thesis deals with the implementation of FEM analysis and its comparison to the analytic approach of strength design, used in accordance to the standards mentioned above.

Software comparison for design and control of pressure vessels
Staňková, Lucie ; Pernica, Marek (referee) ; Lošák, Pavel (advisor)
The main goal of this thesis is to compare different software for pressure vessels design and control. This comparison is done by designing a given pressure vessel, specifically a heat exchanger. The heat exchanger is designed in software Sant’Ambrogio, Visual Vessel Design and PV Elite. Advantages and disadvantages of used software are discussed. Thesis evaluates various aspects of design, particularly graphic interfaces, user-friendliness, clarity and calculated results. The results for the cylindrical shell and the torispherical end of each software are analysed and compared to own calculations based on ČSN EN 13445 design code. Differences among results are explained. Thesis also contains the literature search report of pressure vessels design.

Deformation and damage of tube bundle bends due to temperature
Michálková, Anežka ; Pernica, Marek (referee) ; Létal, Tomáš (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with the problem of determining the thermal load of cross-flow tube bundle bends in steam superheater. Firstly, the theoretical basis of computational fluid dynamics and finite element method is introduced, and the possible methods of creep damage evaluation are presented as it was assumed that creep damage would be the most significant damage mechanism. The next part of this thesis describes simulations in ANSYS Fluent to determine values of heat transfer coefficients and ANSYS Mechanical to obtain temperature field and stresses. Based on the determined temperature field and stresses, a creep lifetime calculation according to ČSN EN 12952-4 is performed. Then creep design check for operating time 200 000 hours was carried out according to ČSN EN 13445-3. It was determined that in this case the tube bends are not the critical spot in comparison with the straight sections of tubes.

Design of a two-phase separator
Brančan, Peter ; Pernica, Marek (referee) ; Létal, Tomáš (advisor)
Design of a two-phase separator according to the model assignment for separation of natural gas and crude oil. Material selection and checkup for functionality on this process equipment. Emphasis is on selection of dimensions according to mathematical model of mixture sepation. Design is also considering safety of the vessel. Dimensions of separator are optimalized to the lowest possible price of a vessel, while maintaining functionality and required safety of a pressure vessel. Separator is designed according to the standart ČSN EN 13445. Iteretion programs in computational software MATLAB were created to make calculations easier. Programs were created for calculations of separator’s dimensions, nozzles and their reinforcing pads, checking calculations of the vessel and its nozzles and calculations of flanges.

Cost-efficient design of high pressure gas pipeline
Šrámková, Veronika ; Pernica, Marek (referee) ; Létal, Tomáš (advisor)
The aim of this thesis was the cost-efficient design of high pressure gas pipeline with a maximum capacity 40 mil.Nm3/day and a length of the pipeline 100 km. The economic design consisted of analyzing and comparing expenses for three different pipelines over a 20-year period. The thesis includes the design of pipe dimensions with proposed thickness of pipe walls according to STN EN 1594: 2014 and ISO 4200: 2010. Software Simone was used in order to determine the pressure loss and the number of compressor stations. Software calculated the necessary power of compressor stations and fuel gas consumption as well. Based on the necessary power, the most economically advantageous gas turbine compressors were chosen for each compressor station. The capital expenditures consisted of the price for compressor stations together with gas pipelines. The operating expenditures for 20 years were added to these costs. In conclusion of the thesis, a comparison of expenditures for all 3 variants was conducted. Based on the results, it can be stated that the most economically advantageous variant of the construction is a gas pipeline with a diameter DN1000.

Development of Methodology for Evaluating the Necessity of Shell Compensators fo Tubular Condensers
Pernica, Marek ; Reppich, Marcus (referee) ; Vincour, Dušan (referee) ; Jegla, Zdeněk (advisor)
This dissertation deals with strength analysis of shell and tube condenser with fixed tube sheet, which is equipped with shell expansion joint. The main aim of this thesis is to develop a methodology for determining of necessity of uses the expansion joint on the shell and tube condenser, while maintaining the safety and reliability of the equipment during operation, based on thermal-hydraulic and strength analyses. Industrial condenser is used as a safety equipment during the operation, therefore special attention is paid to the start-up process. The condenser start-up process is investigated by a number of transient strength and transient thermal analyses, which was solved by specialized software and with analytical calculations. The strength calculation of shell, tube and tube-sheet of shell and tube condenser is developed in detail according the ČSN EN 13445 standard with special attention to shell and tube process media thermal impact on condenser construction. Based on the performed calculations, the methodology for evaluating the necessity of shell expansion joints of tubular condensers was developed.

Structural design of heat exchanger pair
Pernica, Marek ; Buzík, Jiří (referee) ; Naď, Martin (advisor)
This master’s thesis deals with structural design of twin heat exchanger with vertically stacked horizontal vessels according to CSN EN 13 445 standard. Brief introduction and basic characteristics of shell and tube heat exchangers is performed in the beginning part of the thesis. Design of the heat exchanger was initially performed using design by formula (DBF), which was verified by specialized software Sant´Ambrogio. Since this approach does not include methods for assessment of the nonstandard connection between the vessels, simulations of significant load states were performed using FEM analyses followed by result evaluation using stress categories.
