Finite Element Analysis of the Pressure Vessel Skirt Support

Ko, I-Feng 23 January 2009 (has links)
This research investigates the stress anslysis of a tower skirt support respectively by the earthquake and the wind pressure loading. The researcher used the computer-aided design software Solidworks to set up the tower model and he used finite element software ANSYS to analyze the structure. This study aims to analyze the safety of a tower support for different models. By the finite element analysis, this study found the largest displacement of tower, the von Mises stresses, and the safety factor for the skirt support. Among them, the butted-flared skirt support has the smallest displacement. According to the analysis result, the empty crate type design of skirt support revealed the safety factor of stress greater than two, which ensure that the equipment safety and material-savings. It is expected the study findings can provide a reference for designing or repairing a tower skirt support.
