Structural Design of Power House - pelon2040 - 01-19-2014
Hi CivilEA friends,
I would like to know if anybody has information or guidance in order to stablish the structural design of Power house.
What effect has the turbines (Pelton or Francis) in the structural design? Vibrations? Displacements?
I suppose the best way to design this is through FEM. Must I load the turbine area with some harmonic load simulating the turbine's vibration?
What software do you recommend?
Last thing, some guidance how to design the mobil crane and the rails in the power house in order to lift the turbines?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
I appreciate either comments, books, articles, papers, analysis files or other source.
