Popis: | The wind-generated pressure coefficients likely to be encountered in a free standing cylindrical grain storage with a conical roof are presented as measured from model experiments in a wind tunnel. These take into account the turbulent flow and vertical wind velocity profile likely to be found around such structures. The influence of pulsating wind flows is discussed theoretically and the practical consequences of wind-generated gas losses are detailed for fumigation or controlled atmosphere storage of grain. |
