Natural frequency in tube bundles is the basis of vibration analysis in the heat exchanger. The calculation methods of the natural frequency are summarized in four type of tube bundles: straight tube, U-bend tube, finned tube and tube-fin. The influence of structure, temperature and fluid on the natural frequency are analyzed. Some anti-vibration measures are also put forward. The research direction of vibration analysis in tube bundles of heat exchanger in the future has good prospects.
