Mithapur,

You most certainly CAN. The question is SHOULD YOU. Assuming anyone wants to take on the responsibility for designing a heat exchanger of non-standard parts and materials, you provide virtually no information. This includes, inlet and outlet temps, velocities, all the dimensions, pressures, analysis of fluids on both sides, ..........

Dear All,

This question is not purely related to piping, but let me allow to ask......

We have 16mm Tk Titanium plates in stock. Now, We have to fabricate one heat exchanger for our use.
As per calculation, required thickness of the Tube sheet is 30mm. The type of Heat Exchanger is rectangle and tube sheet size is 1600 mm X 1225 mm Tk.
As titanium is a very costly material and 16mm Tk. Is already available with us, CAN WE USE 2 x 16 mm plates instead of one 30 mm Tk tube sheet? Please advice....
The application is to cool CO2 Gas...
Your prompt reply anticipated.

Regards
