Gaskets And Gasketed Joints Second Edition

Gaskets and Gasketed Joints, Second Edition is an extensive revision of a book that brought together decades of research findings into a single, coherent source. Beginning with a review of the various types of gaskets, including industrial and chemical, it then moves to evaluating and testing them. These tests range from searching for high cycle vibrating service to the ones responsible for shell and tube heat exchange. The results allow for the selected, specified, and qualified gaskets to be discussed in detail, including an analysis of their behavior. The newest technology behind assembling, operating, and repairing vessel joints concludes the revision.
