Where:

fo = Ovalling Natural Frequency in cycles per second

vco = Critical Wind Velocity for Ovalling mile/hr

Ss = Minimum Ring Section Modulus for Ovalling in.

Note, per 4.4.7 and 5.2.2(b):

If stiffeners are present, check the actual spacing against the table

values shown above.

Compute the Critical mean hourly Wind Speed in Imperial Units [Vzcr]:

= b(Zcr/33)alpha * 22/15 * VR * sqrt(I) * 0.6818 (eqn 5.3, w/mph conv)

= 0.65 ( 96.250/33)0.154 * 22/15 * 156.0 * 1.072 * 0.6818

= 128.202 mile/hr

Compute the Critical Wind Speed for Vortex Shedding [Vc]:

= n1(D/S) * 0.6818 (eqn 5.4, w/mph conv)

= 0.912 ( 4.501/0.2 ) * 0.6818

= 13.988 mile/hr

Since Vc is less than Vzcr, Vortex Shedding should be investigated.

Please be sure the Vortex Shedding Option is checked in the program

and then review the Vortex Shedding loads, deflection and fatigue analyis

after the analysis is re-run.
