Application of FEA to Seismic Design of UHV Converter Valve Tower Structure
Anti-seismic characteristics of pendant tower must be considered in the reliability design of the converter valve tower. In this paper
a finite element model of converter valve tower is established with the software Ansys Workbench to conduct the static analysis
modal analysis
and seismic response spectrum analysis. Through strength check of the valve tower components
it is concluded that the strength of the valve tower obtained from the analyses meets the requirement of seismic design. This study may provide a solution to seismic design of UHV converter valve tower structure.
