Abstract (en)

Provided is a ground flare in which a low-frequency vibration generated from a ground flare tower, such as a chimney, is properly adjusted to suppress it below a fixture-vibration generation limit, thereby preventing surrounding objects from resonating and vibrating. In a ground flare (10) that burns a flammable exhaust gas with a burner (11) at the lower end of a chimney, in which the lower end of the chimney (20) and the periphery of the burner (11) are surrounded by a windbreak (40), the low-frequency-noise sound pressure level of a ground flare tower composed of the chimney (20) and the windbreak (40) is reduced by selecting at least one of changing a natural frequency generated from the ground flare tower, using multiple ground flare towers, and installing a low-frequency-vibration absorber in the ground flare tower.
