Cl. 7.2.3 A Self-Supporting Chimney of Height 40m and Above 7.2.4 (A) Minimum Height of Flare Be Equal To One-Third

The document provides steps to design the dimensions and analyze the wind load of a chimney that is over 40 meters high. It specifies that for chimneys over 40m, a flare must be provided at the base according to IS 6533 standards. The height and diameters of the flare and cylindrical portions are calculated based on the total chimney height. Wind load analysis is then performed according to IS 875 standards to calculate the design wind pressure at different chimney heights using factors for terrain, topography, and basic wind speed.

Step 1: (basic dimensions)

height of chimney, H =
if , H > 40m ,
as per IS 6533 ( Part 2 ) : 1969 , Cl. 7.2.3 A self-supporting chimney of height 40m and above
shall be provided with a flare at the base to achieve better stability.
as per IS 6533 ( Part 2 ) : 1969 , Cl. 7.2.4 (a) Minimum height of flare be equal to one-third
the height of the chimney.

height of flare, Hf =

H
3

height of cylindrical portion, Hc =H- Hf


as per IS 6533 ( Part 2 ) : 1969 , Cl. 7.2.4 (b) Minimum outside diameter of unlined chimney
shell at top be equal to one-twentieth of the height of cylindrical portion of chimney and for
lined chimney it shall be one-twentyfifth of the height of the cylindrical portion.

minimum outside diameter of cylindrical portion at top, Dc =

Hc
25

as per IS 6533 ( Part 2 ) : 1969 , Cl. 7.2.4 (c) Minimum outside diameter of flared chimney shell
at base be equal to 1.6 times the outside diameter of chimney shell at top.
minimum outside diameter of flared portion at base , Df = 1.6(Dc)

step 2 : (wind load analysis)


as per IS : 875 ( Part 3 ) 1987 ,

Pz 0.6 (Vz ) 2

design wind pressure ,


where,
Pz = design wind pressure in N/m2 at height Z , and
Vz = design wind velocity in m/s at height Z.
as per IS : 875 ( Part 3 ) 1987 ,

as per IS : 875 ( Part 3 ) 1987 ,

K1 =
