文摘The structure of parabolic condensers makes them susceptible to wind load because of their thin and large windward mirrors.In this paper,the wind pressure on a model of a condenser mirror(1:35)on multistorey flat roofs is analysed via pressure measurement in a wind tunnel.The mean wind-pressure distribution law of flat-roof condenser mirrors(including the change law with working conditions and the maximum distribution characteristics)and the distribution law of fluctuating and extreme wind pressure are obtained.Furthermore,by comparison with the ground-based condenser distribution law,similarities and differences between the two are obtained.Research results show that the wind-pressure distribution law of flat-roof parabolic condenser mirrors is the same as those on the ground,but the mean wind-pressure coefficient(absolute value)is generally~30%smaller.Furthermore,the maximum effect is generally located at the windward mirror edge and the mirror is more susceptible to wind pressure in wind directions of 30°and 135°-150°.The results of this study can provide a theoretical reference for wind-resistant structure design and multistorey flat-roof condenser-related research.
