Abstract
Predictions of the downwind travel of LNG vapor—air mixtures based on mathematical modelling by several groups have shown wide variations. A review and assessment of these predictions is summarized in this paper. Its objectives were to provide a detailed description of the models, and using them to estimate maximum downwind travel for a standard scenario, to enable valid comparisons to be made; to identify the reasons for differences found; to define the present “state-of-the-art”; and recommend further work. Models produced by seven groups and the predictions which they give, are described and compared. The results of this comparison and the wide variations are discussed. The objectives of further work now in progress are given.
