Wind distributed load on a stack

Wind distributed load on a stack

(OP)
Hi,

I have modelled a cylindrical stack with shell181 elements. Now I need to introduced a distributed load along the heigth of the strucuture and I need this load to te along one of the global axes. The function I'm trying to use (SFE) only allow me to use pressure forces in the direction of the rotation axes (local axes).
Is there any way I can introduce the distributed load along one of the global axes?

Thank you in advance!
