Chimney:- Chimney , as we know, is used to reject the flue gases to the atmosphere, coming from the Steam Boiler during operation. Also, it is a megastructure in Steam Boiler assembly and any discrepancy in its structural and foundation work can cause extremely serious damages, may even lead to casualties or plant shut off till its re-erection. The designer must consider all the factors while designing chimneys and one of the major factors amongst them is the wind factor. Blowing wind tries to overcome its static inertia but fails, if spirals are provided on the surface of the chimney. BUT THE QUESTION IS HOW????? Consider a chimneys (without spiral wings) , when the blowing wind comes in contact with its upstream surface, stagnation point (zero velocity) is achieved at that point i.e. pressure generated is high at that point and at the downstream end a vacuum is created as the wind coming in contact with the chimneys , gets deflected and meets after some point (wake regio...
I wanted to leave a quick thank you to RNA Heating for their great service. My boiler broke down suddenly and I was in urgent need of a boiler repair in Kidderminster. They booked me in quickly and sorted the problem with no fuss. The technician was clean, polite and really knew his stuff. I’d happily recommend RNA Heating to anyone having boiler trouble in Kidderminster or nearby towns.
