Abstract
Pressure vessels require flanged joints to permit their disassembly, in-spection and cleaning. Bolted joints are also utilized to alleviate stresses at sections where sharp temperature changes occur, such as the joint between tubeside and shellside chambers in a heat exchanger (Fig. 3.1.1). From a conceptual standpoint, flanged joints may be subdivided into two major categories.
