2、Design load

安龙

安龙Load includes structural self weight, wind turbine constant load, live load, snow load, wind load, etc. The structural calculation adopts the ultimate stress method, therefore, the load value is larger than usual. The surface load is calculated based on the distribution coefficient and applied to the platform according to the line load. The wind load is calculated based on the wind vibration coefficient, body shape coefficient, and basic wind pressure to calculate the wind pressure values on four surfaces, which are then converted into line loads and applied to the columns. Auxiliary components such as stair handrails are applied to the stairs according to uniformly distributed loads.

1. Constant load

安龙

The self weight of the steel structure is automatically calculated by the program, and the node weight is considered based on the self weight of the structure multiplied by 1.3. The weight and fluid load of the radiator are applied by external forces.

Platform constant load: 0.50kN/m2

安龙

2. Live load

安龙

Live load of the platform for loading: 2.5kN/m2

安龙

安龙3. Snow load

安龙According to relevant design data, the snow pressure can be basically calculated as 0.4N/m2.

安龙

安龙4. Wind load

安龙

Calculate according to the maximum value.

安龙Basic wind pressure: 0.35kN/m2, height variation coefficient of 1.8, wind vibration coefficient: 1.5, ground roughness category: Class A

安龙Class.

安龙

安龙Is the standard value of wind load, is the wind vibration coefficient at height Z, is the shape coefficient of wind load, and is the coefficient of wind pressure height variation.

安龙

When the standard value of wind load is less than 0.75kpa, calculate based on 0.75 kPa and multiply by 1.4 times the safety factor. Namely

5. Temperature load

安龙

安龙The temperature difference is relatively small. The structural form is single, and the linear expansion of steel has a relatively small impact on the overall performance of the structure, which can be ignored.

6 Earthquake loads

安龙

According to the seismic analysis design method: small earthquakes do not damage, medium earthquakes are repairable, and large earthquakes do not collapse. Small earthquake analysis can be divided into: bottom shear force method, response spectrum analysis, and elastic time history analysis. Medium earthquake analysis is calculated by multiplying small earthquake analysis by amplification factor.

安龙Seismic fortification intensity: 8 degrees

安龙Design basic seismic acceleration peak value: 0.3g

Damping ratio: 0.05

安龙

This structure adopts MIADS software for overall modeling and analysis. During modeling, beam elements are mainly used for each structure. In order to facilitate loading, plate elements are established at the structural platform. Consolidation is used as the boundary condition at the bottom of each column, and constraints are applied at the connection between the column and the original structure according to the actual situation. The structure includes upright column, cross brace, slant support and upper and lower platform steel structure.

安龙1. Material parameters

安龙Aluminum alloy adopts 6005-T1, with tensile strength and yield strength equivalent to 6063-T5, tensile strength ≥ 150Mpa, yield stress ≥ 110 Mpa. According to the performance table of aluminum alloy, it is found that 6063-T5 has a tensile strength of 185Mpa, yield stress of 145 Mpa, and fatigue strength of 90MPa.

安龙2. Working condition analysis

安龙

安龙The calculation of radiators can be divided into 1. lifting ondition,

3. operating condition (operating condition is divided into

安龙

安龙4.support and lifting point participate in force simultaneously.

安龙

5.support bears gravity, while lifting point bears horizontal force.

安龙6.support does not bear any force, that is, when the overall structure is subjected to uneven settlement, there is a suspension at the bottom)

安龙

安龙To ensure its stability, it is recommended that the foundation treatment should be pre compressed and settlement assessment should be carried out during the overall installation.

安龙

2.1 Hoisting conditions

安龙At this point, the radiator is only considered for its own weight due to the lack of fluid injection, and is lifted and installed through a side lifting point. Because no other accessories were installed during modeling, in order to estimate the weight more accurately, its self weight coefficient was defined as 1.3.

The radiator structure consists of 1, frame 2, support beam 3, heat exchange tube 4, tube plate, and other ancillary structures. As the heat exchange tube and support beam are fixed together through a corrugated plate, it can be considered that the heat exchange tube participates in the structural stress, which leads to strain and stress generation.

Through calculation, it can be seen that horizontal lifting has little effect on the heat dissipation fins, and its deformation and stress are far less than the standard requirements.
