摘要
The paper is concerned with a numerical simulation of fuel cloud behaviour which follows releases of a liquid fuel. The main aim of the work is to develop further a mathematical model to simulate such releases into the atmosphere. The model is validated by a comparison with experimental results. The influence of boundary conditions for turbulent kinetic energy k and its dissipation rate ε on the solution is investigated. It is concluded that the solution depends mainly on the combination of k and ε in the form k3/2/ε rather than each of these values separately. A way to define the boundary conditions for k and ε is suggested. The KIVA-II code has been used as the base of the code used. The original code has been modified to simulate low Mach number atmospheric flows, radiation, soot formation and turbulent combustion.
