Pool evaporation - experimental data collection and modelling
When handling flammable or toxic liquids or liquefied gases, the occurrence of a leakage and formation of a liquid pool is a scenario to be considered for risk assessment. Several models are available for the estimation of the evaporating mass flow, but only a very reduced number of experimental data is available for Validation purposes. In the last years, the Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) in Berlin, Germany, carried out pool Evaporation experiments with different substances in basins with a Diameter ranging from 0,50 m to 1 m mainly on open air test sites with a built up (inner city) and a non-built-up (flat terrain) topography, but also in an enclosed space. The resulting experimental data sets cover a range of vapor pressures from 0,1 bar to 0,94 bar. The aim of this work is to make the füll data set publicly available and to provide a description of the experimental boundary conditions. Based on these data, a Validation of existing pool Evaporation models has been carried out and eventually led to a new formulation of an evaporation model, which is also presented here, covering the whole ränge from low wind speeds up to high vapor pressures.
