Silencer Analysis

This document provides input data for the analysis and design of a silencer including its dimensions, material properties, weights, and design loads. Key points: 1. The silencer is 8800mm wide, 3000mm tall with 11 perforated steel splitters that are 8400mm long to reduce noise. 2. Each splitter weighs approximately 1009kg and the total weight of the silencer system to be supported is 910,000kg. 3. The design considers internal pressure of 4kPa, wind loads, and the dead weight of the structure to calculate ultimate design loads. 4. Preliminary checks of the splitter support beam show it is adequately sized to resist bending, shear

Splitter Support Beam Design
For plates in Compression,
Max. Unsupported Section in compression l1=560.T1/Fy0.5 285.8 mm
Max. Unsupported Section in Tension L1'=60.T1 300.0 mm
Max. Unsupported section provided is 400 mm. Therefore , OK.

Consider the Support Beam in Bending


Weight per unit Length w 1.18 kN/m

Maximum Bending Moment (At Center) Mmax=w.b/2(a+b/4) 10.40 kNm
Maximum Bending Stress Fb=Mmax/Zx 39.06 Mpa
Maximum Allowable Bending Stress Fall=0.6*Fy 57.60 MPa
Since, The allowable Stresses are morethan the required. Design is OK in Bending.

Check Shear Stress:


Shear Force Fs=w.b/2 4.95 kN
Required Shear Stress fs=Fs/As 2.47 Mpa
Max. Allowable Shear Stress Fall-s=0.45.Fy 43.2 Mpa
Splitter Support Beam is OK under Shear Stress.
