Technical Note:Wind Forces

PublishTime：2022-08-08

■The effects of wind are very important in selecting the right load cell capacity and determining the correct mount to use in outdoor applications. In analysis, it must be assumed that the wind can (and does) blow from any horizontal direction.
■The Figure shows the effects of wind force on a vertical tank. Note that not only is there force distribution against the tan on the windward side, but also a“suction”distribution on the leeward side.
■These forces tend to be additive and can tip the vessel over in the direction of the wind.
■On the sides of the tank the forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, resulting in no effect on the overall stability of the vessel.
