Abstract
Of the many liquefied natural gas (LNG) spill experiments in the 1980 Burro and 1981 Coyote series at the Naval Weapons Center (NWC), China Lake, California, only one was observed to affect the mean flow and turbulence in the near-surface atmospheric boundary layer. This experiment, Burro 8, was conducted under atmospheric conditions that permitted the gravity flow of the cold, dense gas to be almost independent of the atmospheric boundary layer. The mean flow kinetic energy was damped proportionately more than the turbulent kinetic energy. These effects of the Burro 8 LNG spill were observed at only one instrument station.
