Analysis of Self-Supported Steel Chimney with the Effects of Geometrical Parameters

Abstract

Steel stacks are smoke releasing slender and tall structures constructed for various power plant or oil and gas industries. Steel chimney are subjected to static and dynamic loadings. Static analysis is carried out by static wind loading and dynamic analysis is carried out by considering both seismic loading as well as dynamic wind loadings. Geometry of a steel chimney plays an important role in behavior of structure under lateral loading. This is because geometry is the important for the stiffness parameters of the chimney. However, the basic geometrical parameters of the steel chimney (e.g, height of chimney, diameter at top, etc.) are associated with the corresponding site conditions. Present study deals with investigate the effect of height to base diameter ratio and top to base diameter ratio on behavior of self-supported steel chimney. A total of 49 number of steel chimney configured with seven different heights and top diameter of chimney are selected and analyzed for wind loadings and seismic loadings as per Indian standards (IS: 6533 part2) and IS 1893(part 4). The effect of geometric parameters on self-supported steel chimney is found out using STAAD Pro Vi8 and MS-Excel.
