    The document defines the natural frequency of a structural element as the square root of stiffness over mass times area moment of inertia. It then provides the equations and values used to calculate the natural frequency of 15.85 Hz for a pipe branch with a rigid element, determining that the branch connection is stable.

    Frequency Assessment

    The natural frequency of a structural element is defined as,

    Where;
    Stiffness k,

    Area moment of inertia I,

    l: 0.9740 m, Total length of cantilever


    M: 425.00 kg, Weight of the rigid element

    Input :
    Pipe Branch
    E: 2.043 1011N/m2, Modulus of Elasticity
    D: 114.3 mm, Pipe Outside Diameter
    t: 17.1 mm, Pipe Thickness
    Header

    Length (l) Weight (M)


    Item mm kg
    1 Pipe Branch 254 -
    2 Rigid Element 720 425.0

    Calculation: Rigid Element

    d: 80.1 mm, Pipe Internal Diameter


    4
    I: 0.0000063576 m
    k: 4217014.71 N/m

    ωN : 15.85 Hz

    Conclusion: The Branch connection is Stable
