Checks for wind induced vibration on vertical vessel with platforms
Checks for wind induced vibration on vertical vessel with platforms
(OP)
Dear Pals
We have a 200ft vertical pressure vessel with a roughly mean diameter of 9ft at the base 5ft towards the top
But at least 4 platforms are attached to this vessel, roughly at 50f spacing vertically
Would you rely on roughness of the platforms against vortex induced vibrations?

50' platform spacing? That's a long climb in between platforms! What country will this vessel be installed in?

I sure hope the ladders are caged and not like a smoke stack.
This column is awfully skinny too. It must have some anchoring system to handle any wind loads.
