The Inlet header box is fixed: and the outlet header box Is floating in type. 2) Even pass In this type of arrangement the inlet and the outlet nozzles are located on the same header box, Guidelines for modeling of odd pass ACHE 44 General Points ‘+ Air Cooler shall be modeled as rigid. + Inodd pass header box configuration, tube bundle shall be modeled for analysis of nozzle on floating header. ‘+ Average of the inlet and the outlet temperatures shall be used while modelling the tube bundle. '» Total weight of the tube bundle given in ACHE GA drawing shall be distributed among Individual tube bundle modeled. + Header shall be modeled as a weightless rigid element «Header box shali be simply supported and guides and axial stops shall be provided to ensure the movement parallel and perpendicular to the header. * Gaps shall be provided as per the GA of ACHE. = Aircooler is rested on Teflon pads.
