M_w = P_lw*(h₁/2)+P_uw*(h₁+(h₂/2))
This formula uses 5 Variables

Variables Used

Maximum Wind Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Maximum Wind Moment is calculated based on a number of factors, including the wind speed and direction, the size and shape of the building or structure, the materials used in construction.
Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel - (Measured in Newton) - Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel refers to the forces and stresses that are generated by wind acting on the surface area of the vessel below its center of gravity.
Height of Lower Part of Vessel - (Measured in Millimeter) - Height of Lower Part of Vessel refers to the vertical distance between the vessel's bottom and a point where the diameter of the vessel changes.
Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel - (Measured in Newton) - Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel refers to the external force exerted by wind on the exposed surface area of the vessel above a certain height.
Height of Upper Part of Vessel - (Measured in Millimeter) - Height of Upper Part of Vessel is typically defined as the distance from the bottom of the vessel to a certain point above the liquid level.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wind Load acting on Lower Part of Vessel: 67 Newton --> 67 Newton No Conversion Required
Height of Lower Part of Vessel: 2.1 Meter --> 2100 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
Wind Load acting on Upper Part of Vessel: 119 Newton --> 119 Newton No Conversion Required
Height of Upper Part of Vessel: 1.81 Meter --> 1810 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

M_w = P_lw*(h₁/2)+P_uw*(h₁+(h₂/2)) --> 67*(2100/2)+119*(2100+(1810/2))

Evaluating ... ...

M_w = 427945

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

427945 Newton Meter -->427945000 Newton Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

427945000 ≈ 4.3E+8 Newton Millimeter <-- Maximum Wind Moment

What is Design Height?

Design height refers to the effective height of a structural member or column that has been designed to resist compressive loads. In structural engineering, the effective height is defined as the length of a column or member between its points of zero bending moment, or the length at which the column or member buckles under compressive loads. The design height is an important consideration in the design of structural members, as it affects their ability to resist buckling and collapse under compressive loads. Structural engineers and designers use a range of analytical methods and computer simulations to determine the appropriate design height for different types of structural members, depending on the material properties, loading conditions, and other factors that may affect their performance.
