NOVOTECH, by subcontract of the GRIE.C.AM Company, has performed these main different activities:
a) Statistical analysis of historical wind data recorded by the wind measurement station;
b) Definition of FE Model of the very high chimney (~91 meters) of the Garigliano Power Plant, followed by Static and Dynamic analysis via MSC NASTRAN/PATRAN;
c) Wind Tunnel Test Campaign to measure and analyse the aerodynamic forces of two different system of demolition.
Finally, NOVOTECH has provided assistance with the monitoring of vibrations during the phase of demolition of the chimney.
