Flow Engineering provides the construction and the installation of Tuned Liquid Dampers and various other dampening systems. These experts provide project oversight for on-site construction or at a desired local manufacturer to steer clear of transportation costs. In addition to that, Flow Engineering works with preferred providers of heavy lifting facilities and these specialists perform the routine maintenance for the dampening solutions that they have supplied, if that is necessary. They also check, evaluate and repair third party dampening solutions, if desired. What is a Tuned Liquid Damper?A Tuned Liquid Damper is a less common option, compared to the Tuned Mass Damper, when it comes to decreasing vibrations of slender constructions. A Tuned Liquid Damper is a container that is partly loaded with a mixture of glycol and water. The damper does not have any moving parts, since the dampening is supplied by the splattering of the water and glycol mixture in the damper. The Tuned Liquid Damper contains a mass that is able to alter either horizontally or vertically. Therefore, it will fluctuate in the opposite direction of the crosswind loads or waves. The usages of this high-end damperUsing a Tuned Liquid Damper is an outstanding way to reduce the vibration of slender constructions. These specialists have over 20 years of experience in analyzing, constructing and fixing Tuned Liquid Dampers and Tuned Mass Dampers all around the world. Their high-end systems are applicable to flagpoles, chimneys and many other slim structures. However, their first-class dampers can not only be used for the decrease of vibrations: they also prevent fatigue damage.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Tuned Liquid Damper and how does it work?▼
A Tuned Liquid Damper is a container filled with a glycol and water mixture that reduces vibrations in slender structures. It has no moving parts; instead, the liquid's movement inside the container provides dampening, allowing it to oscillate opposite to wind or wave loads.
What structures can benefit from a Tuned Liquid Damper?▼
Tuned Liquid Dampers are ideal for flagpoles, chimneys, and other slim structures. They effectively reduce vibrations and prevent fatigue damage in high-end construction applications across various industries.
What is the difference between a Tuned Liquid Damper and a Tuned Mass Damper?▼
While both reduce vibrations in slender constructions, a Tuned Liquid Damper uses fluid movement for dampening with no moving parts, whereas a Tuned Mass Damper uses mechanical mass movement. The Tuned Liquid Damper is a less common but equally effective alternative.
Does Flow Engineering handle installation and maintenance of damping systems?▼
Yes, Flow Engineering provides complete services including construction, installation, and ongoing maintenance of Tuned Liquid Dampers. They offer project oversight and can perform repairs on both their own and third-party dampening solutions.
Can Flow Engineering build dampers at a local manufacturer instead of at my site?▼
Yes, Flow Engineering can arrange on-site construction or work with a local manufacturer of your choice to avoid transportation costs. They coordinate with preferred heavy lifting providers to ensure proper installation.
