What is the wake frequency?

TEMPSENS WAKE FREQUENCY CALCULATOR is easy to use and it also ensures that thermowell is designed within the dimensional limits of PTC19.3, 2010. This calculator establishes the practical design considerations for Thermowell installations in power and process piping, which also incorporates the latest theory in the areas of natural frequency, Strouhal frequency, in-line resonance and stress evaluation.

If the application is fulfilling all limits of the ASMT PTC 19.3, it means the Thermowell met 5 criteria:

• Operating temperature
• Wake frequency calculation (resonance limits)
• Fatigue stress
• Bending strengths
• Operating pressure
