Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Vapor Dispersion Modeling with Computational Fluid Dynamics Codes
(2012-10-19)
Federal regulation 49 CFR 193 and standard NFPA 59A require the use of validated consequence models to determine the vapor cloud dispersion exclusion zones for accidental liquefied natural gas (LNG) releases. For modeling ...
Application of Computational Fluid Dynamics in the Forced Dispersion Modeling of LNG Vapor Clouds
(2013-05-31)
The safety and security of liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities has prompted the need for continued study of LNG mitigation systems. Water spray systems are widely recognized as an effective measure for dispersing LNG ...
Application of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to Study Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Pool Fires
(2016-12-07)
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) pool fires pose a major risk to LNG facilities. The radiant energy from a LNG pool fire can be sufficiently high to threaten the structural integrity of the facility, plant personnel, fire ...
A Computational Fluid Dynamic Evaluation of Unconfined Hydrogen Explosions in High Pressure Applications
(2017-12-06)
Over the last few decades, the demand for hydrogen has significantly grown. Its high energy content and relatively small environmental effect make it an ideal energy source and chemical feedstock. However, the perceived ...
Application of Computational Fluid Dynamics for Liquefied Natural Gas Pool Spreading and Vaporization on Water
(2016-04-22)
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a cryogenic liquid consisting predominantly of methane compressed to 1/600th of its gaseous volume for transportation. A release of LNG on water during marine operations can occur due to ...
Study of the Effects of Obstacles in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) Vapor Dispersion using CFD Modeling
(2012-10-19)
The evaluation of the potential hazards related with the operation of an LNG terminal includes possible release scenarios with the consequent flammable vapor dispersion within the facility; therefore, it is important to ...
