Selected issues of aerodynamics of steel chimneys

Abstract

This paper presents general principles of managing the reliability of steel chimneys according to Eurocodes EN 1990 and EN 1993-3-2. It discusses the basis for static calculations and dimensioning and compares Eurocode guidelines to the requirements of old Polish Standards. The use of standard procedures is illustrated by an example of static calculations and dimensioning of a steel chimney shell.
