For years now, Dinak has been one of the European companies in the sector offering the widest range of solutions for ventilation, conduction of gases, and the removal of products from combustion. The company designs, calculates and installs chimneys and flues throughout Europe for the residential, industrial and tertiary sectors: buildings for housing; shopping centres; hospitals; airports; public administration headquarters; and industry, to name but a few.
Dinak’s leading position has been achieved as a result of the company’s firm commitment to quality and technological innovation from the moment it was founded, in 1983. This has permitted the continuous improvement in quality of its products and the development of new solutions which adapt to market requirements and current regulations.
For this reason DINAK actively participates in the elaboration of both Spanish and international regulations, via the European Sub-committee for the Standardisation of Metallic Chimneys (CEN/TC166/SC2) and the Technical Committee for the Standardisation of Chimneys (AEN/CTN123) in Spain.
Over the years Dinak has consolidated its position as an international company operating in both EU markets and non-member markets alike, with a network of branch offices, distributors and collaborators.
The basic principle used by Dinak for its operations is to adapt its products and modus operandi to the specific requirements of each country. This approach has allowed the company to grow and develop its extensive network of branch offices and distributors. Indeed, these continue to grow year after year.

2 INITIAL STUDY
Once all of the initial data for the project has been recompiled, the next step is to perform the initial study, which consists of the following sections:
2.1. CALCULATION OF DIAMETER
The calculation of the diameter of self-supporting chimneys is made by following the considerations outlined by the EN 13084-1 standard. This standard establishes that for heights less than 20m, the calculation method included in the EN 13384-1 standard may be used.
For heights equal to or greater than 20m, the calculation of the diameter has to be performed in accordance with the terms established under Annex A of the EN 13084-1 standard. This annex introduces an additional check for the requirements included in the EN 13384-1 standard, which are described below:
- The velocity of the fumes at the chimney outlet has to be greater than a minimum value which is a function of its diameter. This check is designed to ensure the suitability of the formulas used in the calculation, thus avoiding the possible effects of coatings on the chimney’s outlet. The minim velocities per diameter are shown in the following table:
Where, Di is the inner diameter of the flue in mm, and Wmin is the velocity of the fumes at the chimney outlet, in m/s.
The EN 13384-1 European standard specifies the methods used for the calculation of the section of chimneys used for a single generator. It applies to chimneys with positive pressure (P,H) or negative pressure (N), in wet (W) or dry (D) operating conditions, and with any type of fuel, provided that the characteristics of the fumes required for the calculation are known.The standard establishes the pressure and temperature requirements needed to verify the correct functioning of the installation.
Pressure requirements for installations with negative pressure (natural draught).

First pressure requirement:The draught at the base of the chimney (PZ) ) has to be greater than or equal to the draught required at the end of the horizontal connection section (PZe):
PZ ≥ PZe
Second pressure requirement:The draught at the base of the chimney (PZ) ) has to be greater than or equal to the loss of pressure due to the combustion air supply from the outside of the building to the room where the generator is installed (PB):
PZ ≥ PB
Required draught:The draught required at the end of the horizontal section (PZe) ) is equal to the loss of load due to the movement of the fumes in said section (PFV) plus the loss of pressure due to the combustion air supply (PB) plus the minimum draught of the device (PW):
Available draught:The available draught at the base of the chimney is equal to the difference between the theoretical draught produced by the effective height of the chimney (PH) minus the loss of load due to resistance to the movement of the fumes (PR) and minus the pressure exerted on the chimney due to the action of the wind (PL):
PZ = PH - PR - PL
PZe = PFV + PB + PW
Dinak offers its customers a programme for the calculation of chimney diameters as per the requirements of the EN-13384-1 standard. This programme is called DINAKALC CE III, and allows you to determine the optimum operational diameter for all kinds of uses.
DINAKALC CE III is certified by ECA (European Chimneys Association) and by ESCHFOE (European Federation of Chimney-sweeps) and passed all of the required calculation tests in the Munich TUV.
The temperature of the inner wall of the chimney outlet (Tiob) has to be greater than or equal to the maximum temperature (Tg):
Pressure requirements for installations with positive pressure (overpressure)
The maximum temperature for chimneys operating in dry conditions (D) is equal to the condensation temperature for the fumes.The maximum temperature for chimneys operating in wet conditions (W) is equal to 0ºC to avoid the formation of ice at the chimney outlet.

Second pressure requirement:The overpressure at the base of the chimney (PZO) ) has to be less than or equal to the maximum permitted overpressure for the chimney (PZexcess):
First pressure requirement:The overpressure at the base of the chimney (PZO) has to be less than or equal to the maximum available overpressure at the end of the horizontal connection section (PZOe):
PZO ≤PZOe
Available overpressure: The maximum overpressure available at the end of the horizontal connection section (PZOe) ) is equal to the difference between the maximum permitted overpressure at the generator outlet (PWO), minus the sum of the loss of effective load in said section and the loss of pressure due to the combustion air supply (PFV + PB):
Existing overpressure: The overpressure at the base of the chimney (PZO) is equal to the difference between the sum of the loss of pressure due to resistance to the movement of the fumes and the wind pressure (PR + PL), minus the theoretical draught (PH):
Third pressure requirement:The overpressure at the outlet from the generator (PZO + PFV) ) has to less than or equal to the maximum permitted overpressure for the horizontal connection section (PZVexcess)
The values of PZexcess and PZVexcess may be obtained from tables 1 and 2 for self-supporting and modular chimneys, respectively
PZO ≤ PZexcess
PZO + PFV ≤ PZVexcess
PZO = (PR + PL) - PH

2.2. STRUCTURAL CALCULATION

2.2.1. DETERMINING ACTIONS
The first step in the structural calculation consists in determining the actions on the chimney or structure, plus the combination of said actions which cause maximum deformations and the most unfavourable effects on the resistant elements of the assembly.
a. PERMANENT ACTIONSThose actions which present constant values during the lifetime of the structure. These actions have to consider the estimated weight of all of the permanent structures and elements.The weight of the chimney itself has to be determined using the EN 1991-1-1 standard.

b.1. Operating loadsDefined as the characteristic value of 2 kN/m² for the design of the access and rest platforms, unless the specific conditions of the project require higher loads to be considered.
b.2. Actions of the windFor most projects the action of the wind is that which causes the greatest stress on resistant sections and the maximum deformation of the assembly.
EN 1991-1-4
b.2.1. Wind reference speed This is a nationally determined parameter, as per the Eurocodes. Its value established for each country using the national annexes.
EN 1991-1-4 ENV 1991-1-4
c. ACCIDENTAL ACTIONSThose actions which may occasionally occur in a manner which cannot be anticipated.
EN 13084-1
c.1. Seismic actionsAccording to section 5.2.4.1. of the EN 13084-1 standard, generally speaking, seismic actions are not significant for steel chimneys.
EN 13084-1 5.2.4.1
c.2. Explosions and implosionsDepressions caused by implosions, due to the sudden interruption of the flow of fumes, have to be determined as per section A.7.7 of the EN 13084-1 standard.When a risk of explosion exists, due to the accumulation of soot or combustible gases, a specific study has to be performed to determine the resistance required for the flues. Alternatively a device can be used to reduce explosions, especially when modular flues are used.
EN 13084-1 5.2.4.2EN 13084-1 A.7.7
EN 1993-3-1EN 1993-3-2
c.3. ImpactsWhen a significant risk of impact exists for the chimney or the structure, this must be taken into account in the calculation. EN 13084-1 5.2.4.3
b. VARIABLE ACTIONSThose actions which present significant variations with respect to their average vales during the lifetime of the structure.
2.2.2. CALCULATING REACTIONS Once the actions have been determined, the reactions caused in the anchoring points of the self-supporting solution under study have to be calculated. This information is used in an advanced phase of the project to calculate and/or check the foundations at the corresponding anchoring points.
2.2.3 CALCULATING RESISTANT ELEMENTSAfter the determination of the actions we perform the calculation of the resistant elements or sections of the self-supporting solution. In this calculation we verify both that the resistant sections are apt and that the deformations caused by the combination of the actions considered in the calculation are reversible (both in the case of resistant elements and non-resistant elements).

3.5. FASTENING ELEMENTS AND SUPPORTS3.5.1 BASE FASTENING ELEMENTS
We now show the two most common type of fastening elements used in the base of the chimney or structure:
3.5.1.1 Use of concrete anchoring assembly
This fastening system consists of an anchoring assembly provided by Dinak. It is formed by two flanges spaced using screws, which also permit the correct levelling of the assembly.
The anchoring assembly is concreted in place during the execution of the foundation by following the procedure indicated below:
3.5.1.2 Fastening to existing foundation or slab
The structure will be fixed in place using the chimney’s anchoring flange, and using specific screws depending on the base material and the resulting forces.
15
Perform the excavation and formwork for the foundation.
1.Check that the concrete slab/foundation is suitable for the self-supporting anchorage, both in terms of resistance and general dimensions
3.Drill holes in the concrete and install the special screws in accordance with manufacturer’s instructions.
2.Position the self-supporting structure over the foundation/slab, orientating it suitably. Check the levelling of the assembly.
Phase 2. Main concreting. The upper flange will not be concreted to permit the levelling of the chimney.
Phase 3. Install the chimney/structure. Check the levelling and perform the final concreting of the foundation.
Phase 1. Initial concreting. Situate the anchoring assembly in place, turning it to the mark “A”. Check the level of the upper flange.

3.5.2 INTERMEDIATE SUPPORTS AND FASTENING ELEMENTS
In general, the use of intermediate supports in the works allows the resistant sections of the chimney or structure to be optimised, and permits the simplification of the civil works. Thus, they should be used whenever possible.
The different types of supports are classified as follows. The supports may be used individually or in combination:
3.5.2.1 Roof supports
The chimney or structure is stabilised thanks to the use of a support anchored to a resistant slab.
ELABORATING A PROJECT
3.5.2.2 Wall supports
In this case, one or several intermediate levels of the structure or chimney are anchored in place using side anchorage to a resistant wall.
3.5.2.3 Winds
In this case stability is achieved by the use of one or several wind levels fixed to resistant elements.

3 CONSTRUCTIVE SOLUTIONS
3.6. ACCESSORIES3.6.1 PLATFORMS
Platforms are used to facilitate access to the measuring and sampling points in the chimney or structure and to facilitate the maintenance of elements such as the lightening conductors or beacons/signalling.
The materials which are normally used for the construction of our platforms are:
Floor: AISI 304 (14301) non-slip stainless steel metalHandrails: AISI 304 (14301) tubular stainless steel sectionsStructure: AISI 304 (14301) stainless steel sections or S235 painted, laminated carbon steel
The angle of the platform’s cover may vary depending on requirements (though it is normally 150º to 360º).
3.6.2 STAIRS
The stairs allow for easy access to the platforms, and start at the reference level for the installation. The maximum distance between the start level and the upper level reached must not be greater than 9 m, as per current legislation (specified on page 4).
For distances greater than 9m an intermediate rest and safety levels have to be used. This may be achieved via two different configurations:
Intermediate platforms:
Similar characteristics to the main platforms, as described above, but smaller in size.
Relocation of axis: The stair axis is relocated towards another element, thus creating an intermediate security level.
17
3.6.3 LIGHTENING CONDUCTORS
As per the terms established under the UNE_EN 13084-1 European Standard, our self-supporting chimneys may be considered to be metallic structures with continuous electrical conductivity. For this reason they do not require specific protection against lightening or electrical discharges.
Nevertheless, the chimney may include a lightening conductor in order to protect buildings or equipment adjacent to the chimney from receiving electrical discharges.
The system normally used consists of a Franklin point installed on a stainless steel mast (the theoretical protection against lightening is shown in the following diagram).
Any other protection design may also be used, as per customer indications.

3.6.4 BEACONING
The characteristics of the beaconing must be defined in the project report, and based on the geographical coordinates of the installation. Generally speaking, the configuration used for beaconing consists of the following elements:
Night beacons:Red lights, 16 cd each, long lasting ( > 100,000 h), low consumption thanks to the use of LEDs.
Day signalling:Alternating red and white coloured strips in the upper section of the chimney (normally between 1/3 and ½ of the total height).

4 SELECTION OF FLUES
4.1 CHOOSING FROM THE MODULAR RANGE OF CHIMNEYS
For multiple flue chimneys and self-supporting structures which use modular chimneys as flues, we establish selection criteria for the chimney range suitable for each particular type of use.
You can consult more detailed information about all of our modular chimney ranges in the specific documentation for each chimney available on our website.
- Product recommended for this use, under normal conditions- Product which should be used when there are special installation requisites that require better performance for one or several of the chimney’s characteristics: temperature, water-tightness or flame resistance. Consult Dinak for the best option.- Product not recommended for this use.

4.2 CHOOSING MATERIALS FOR NON-MODULAR FLUES
In the following table the UNE-EN 13084-7 European Standard specifies the selection criteria for the different types of steel, depending on the corrosive properties of the fumes and the working conditions of the installation, and also the overpressure due to corrosion which has to be considered, expressed in mm:
ELABORATING A PROJECT
EXAMPLE: AISI 316L (14404) material is valid for use in wet conditions (W), and the overpressure due to corrosion which has to be considered for medium etching (M) is 0.25 mm for the first ten years, and a further 0.25 mm for each additional decade in operation.
20
The UNE-EN 13084-1 Standard establishes general guidelines to determine the type of etching for the installation, depending on the composition of the gases and the estimated useful lifetime of the chimney. The etchings are defined in different grades, as follows:
Low grade (L) Medium grade (M)High grade (H) Extremely high grade (V)
