Discuss the relationship between the design height and thickness of distillation towers and wind load

2020-02-11View Original

Thread Content

1. Regional wind load: N=10/400, N=50/650. 2. The diameter of the distillation tower is 1000 mm, and its height is 45,000 mm. 3. The distillation tower is located inside a building; the height of this building is 23.5 meters. The tower itself is 22 meters high, so it is a distillation tower that is partly indoor and partly outdoor. The factory building is a steel structure built using H600 and H500 grade steel. 4. Design thickness of the distillation tower: if a wind pressure of 400 is applied, the thickness of the distillation tower **decreases to 16/14; in outdoor installations, a partial framework is used to prevent excessive swinging of the distillation tower. 5. Design thickness of the distillation tower: assuming a wind pressure of 650, the thickness of the distillation tower is 24/18. The question is whether this semi-indoor distillation column can use the first design

Since NB/T47041 applies to self-supporting towers, it is recommended that the tower and the frame be disconnected and installed separately, with a design based on a wind pressure of 650. Otherwise, there are no calculation results to support the design.
