an exchanger with a split-ring floating head is shown in Fig. 7.14. the actual layout is for a 13x1/4 in. ID shell with 1 in. OD tubes on 1x1/4 in. Triangular pitch arranged for six tube passes. The partition arrangement is also shown for the channel and floating-head cover along with the orientation of the passes. Tubes are not usually laid out symmetrically in the tube sheet. Extra entry space is usually allowed in the shell by omitting tubes directly under the inlet nozzle so as to minimize the contraction effect of the fluid entering the shell. When tubes are laid out with minimum space allowances between partitions and adjoining tubes and within a diameter free of obstruction called the outer tube limit, the number of tubes in the layout is the tube count. It is not always possible to have an equal number of tubes in each pass, although in large exchanger the unbalance should not be more than about 5 per cent. In Appendix Table 9 the tube counts for and 1 in. OD tubes are given for one pass shells and one, two, six, and eight tube pass arrangements. These tube counts include a free entrance path below the inlet nozzle equal to the cross-sectional area of the nozzles shown in Table 7.1. when a large inlet nozzle is used, extra entry space can be obtained by flaring the inlet nozzle at its base or removing the tubes which ordinarily lie close to the inlet nozzle.
