Thermostructural Analysis of Plate-Type Heat Exchanger Prototypes Considering Weld Properties

The mechanical properties in a weld zone are different from those in the parent material owing to their different microstructures and residual weld stresses. Welded plate-type heat exchanger prototypes made of Hastelloy-X alloy were manufactured, and performance tests on the prototypes were performe...
