PERFORATED SHEET
FACADES

Abstract
Studies on thermal and radiation/heat flux or acoustic properties
have shown that these perforated facades apart from the pleasant
appearance should be used in order to maintain a balance between
adequate levels of development and use of available resources.
This study starts with the presumption that the advantages from
other studies (the ones mentioned above) are well-known , and
therefore structural resistance and behavior come into questioning,
and this where the project starts.

Wind speed= 37,321= 134.36 km/h
We can observe that this wind speed overpasses the number 12 on Beaufort
scale which means that the perforated plates were tested for strong winds.
The other conversions from wind pressure to wind velocity:
450 Pa = 95.004 km/h
1350 Pa = 164.55 km/h
1800 Pa = 190.01 km/h
The material that was used for these simulation is Steel DX 51D with the
following properties:
Youngs Modulus: 210 GPa
Tensile Yield Strength: 140 MPa
Tensile Ultimate Strength: 270 MPa
Data acquisition :
we can see the differences between plates with the same dimensions (length and width)
but of different thicknesses 1,5 ; 2; 2,5 millimeters.
Conclusions
The increase in size of the bended parts improves the decrease of deformation
Using double bended sides could be a plus referring to the decreasing of
CFD Tests
In order to obtain data of wind behavior , turbulences that
occur between the metal perforated faade and the wall ,
pressure upon the plate for a given wind velocity , several
simulations were made in Ansys Fluent .
The solver used for these simulations is a pressure-based solver.
The pressure-based solver employs an algorithm which belongs to a
general class of methods called the projection methodIn the
projection method, wherein the constraint of mass conservation
(continuity) of the velocity field is achieved by solving a pressure (or
pressure correction) equation. The pressure equation is derived from
the continuity and the momentum equations in such a way that the
velocity field, corrected by the pressure, satisfies the continuity.
Since the governing equations are nonlinear and coupled to one
another, the solution process involves iterations wherein the entire
set of governing equations is solved repeatedly until the solution
a acquisition :
Conclusions
All the simulations
made have similar
behavior for air velocity,
pressure upon plate and
walls and turbulence
because all them were
modeled with
approximately the same
open area (which derives
from holes size) around
35 %.

Conclusions
The two metal perforated facades have almost the same deflection for 7 sheets (equivalent of 284,173Pa) steel - and for 2 sheets (equivalent of 81,644
Pa) aluminum which means that the Youngs modulus plays a big part for material properties:
- 210 GPa for standard Steel
- 70 GPa for standard Aluminum
Also the fact that the plates dont have bended parts along their width increases the deflection as seen in the pictures above
Simulation Model
A quarter of the full size of the plate
was made in Autodesk Inventor with
the same specifications , 5 mm
diameter holes with 8 mm triangular
pitch and double bended sides along
their length 30 x 15 mm.
To combine these two simulations , a linear buckling module had to be used along with other
modules
But within the given time such simulation was possible because of computational reasons.
Another test was attemped , this time with a full imperforated plate , but the studies that have
been made for making an equivalent between imperforated and perforated plates- taking into
account the volume flow rate of the air are inexactly.
From other studies that I have searched , to get an equivalent between the two plates , the
material properties need to be changed along with changes of the applied pressure taking into
account the flow rate and pressure drop upon the given plates.
Apart from every chapters conclusion some overall statements need to be made.
When thinking of using as a facade metal perforated plates the following need to be taken into
consideration:
Properties of the material
Size of the metal perforated plates
Although adding a bit more material by using bended side for the metal perforated plates , the
behavior of these plates changes a lot giving less deformation , less stress along with less strain .
A bigger support area along with right positioning of the support also contribute to less
deformation , but more to the stress control upon the plate, by decreasing it.
