5. INTERMEDIATE WIND GIRDERS, Para 5.9.7

The maximum height of the unstiffened shell shall be calculated as follows, (Para 5.9.7.1)
H1 = 9.47 t ((t/D)^3)^0.5 x (190/V)^2
= 574,13 m
= 574.134,44 mm
Where, H1 Vertical distance between the intermediate windgirder & top angle of the shell, in m
t Addopted thickness, unless otherwise specified, of the thinnest shell course (mm) 6,00 mm
D Nominal tank diameter, in m 8,30 m
V Design wind velocity, in km/h 46,86 km/h
The Height of the transformed shell shall be calculated as follows, (Para 5.9.7.2)
Wtr = W [(tuniform/tactual)^5]^0.5 WE = Σ Wtr
where,
Wtr Transposed width of each shell course, in mm
W Actual width of each shell course, in mm
WE Total of transposed of shell, in mm
tuniform Addopted thickness, unless otherwise specified, of the thinnest shell course (mm) 6,00 mm
tactual Ordered thickness of the shell course for which the transposed width is being calculated, in mm
(SI)
No. W (mm) tact (mm) tuniform Wtr (mm)
#1 1.800 8,00 6,00 876,85
#2 1.800 6,00 6,00 1.800,00
#3 1.800 6,00 7,00 1.800,00
#4 1.800 6,00 6,00 1.800,00
#5 300 6,00 6,00 300,01
WE, 6.576,87
Result :
NO NEED INTERMEDIATE WIND GIRDER!
