“…To assess the extent of the potential dispersion from an LNG spill, we used VULCAN, a validated CFD model [Tieszen, et al 1996]. The VULCAN fire field model under development at Sandia National Laboratories was derived from the KAMELEON Fire model in collaboration with SINTEF and Computational Industry Technologies, AS (Norway).…”

“…In this scenario, there could be extensive volumes of LNG that can be spilled either onto the ship or onto the water surface without and ignition source. These type of approaches have been considered and used and are very sensitive to environmental and meteorological conditions [Tieszen 1991]. Therefore, the potential for this type of event exists, but actually getting an explosion can be difficult.…”

“…The code is based on a Reynolds averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) formulation employing a standard k -E for turbulence model [l], the eddy dissipation concept (EDC) combustion model [2], soot model [3], and a radiation [4] model for participating media. Previous studies using VULCAN have ranged from large outdoor open fires [6] to smaller enclosed dry bay fires [7]. The focus of this work is to incorpcrate a spray modeling capability into VULCAN to account for the dispersal of fuel spray or liquid fire suppressants.…”

“…The continued development of the technology to provide validated fire physics models will eventually lead to an ability to predict the threat posed by fires, the response of objects in fires, and confidence in those predictions. The focus of the Well-Characterized Open Pool fire series described in this paper and other previous SNL fire experiments [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] is to provide archival experimental data of sufficient quality for CFD fire code development and validation purposes. Four fire experiments were conducted with two different wind conditions.…”
