Annotation: When designing buildings and structures one of the main existing loads is the wind. A particularly large impact it has for vertical cylindrical tanks (VCT) in the calculation of its members on sustainability. This article examines the comparative analysis of aerodynamic characteristics of the model VCT, and forecasting on the basis of the received results of aerodynamic characteristics for group VCT method of numerical modeling in complex software Solid Works Flow Simulations, also suggests a methodological approach which ensures the correct display of physical processes of the flow of the wind flow vessel wall. For the group of 4 tanks on the basis of numerical simulation, the specified values of aerodynamic coefficients of wind pressure for each group of tanks providing further refined assessment of stress-mode of construction of the wall in comparison with regulated in the present approach, DBN and Euro codes have been carried out.

Keywords: vertical cylindrical tank, numerical simulation, wind pressure, aerodynamic coefficient.
