摘要:

氯气剧毒且泄漏后常沿地面扩散,非均匀湍流涡团结构常导致扩散预测不准、相关避险措施设置不合理、引发人员中毒等事故。为指导现场快速风险评估、安全标志布置、应急处置及救援,有必要精准预知大尺度密集场景下氯气非均匀扩散规律。采用单相欧拉和组分输运方程,建立了基于能量最小多尺度(EMMS)湍流模型的高危氯气非均匀湍流扩散模拟预测方法。以美国陆军Jack Rabbit液氯泄放实验为对象,验证模拟准确性并考察了不同风速、风向、泄漏量条件下氯气非均匀扩散特性。结果表明:提出的模拟方法能较好地预测大尺度密集场景氯气非均匀扩散,误差在8%以内;风速增大会加速开阔区域氯气扩散,但对集装箱密集区浓度分布影响有限;风向偏离建筑对称轴引发“狭管效应”,会使局部浓度瞬间上升;泄漏量增大后,高浓度区域扩大形成“屏障效应”,氯气体积分数为0.045以上的面积占比增加36.6%。

Abstract:

Chlorine gas is highly toxic and tends to diffuse along the ground after leakage. The non-uniform turbulent vortex structures often lead to inaccurate diffusion predictions, causing improperly designed safety measures and accidents such as personnel poisoning. In order to guide on-site rapid risk assessment, safety sign layout, emergency response and rescue, it is necessary to accurately predict the law of non-uniform diffusion of chlorine in large-scale dense scenes. This paper adopts the single-phase Eulerian and species transport equations, establishing a simulation and prediction method for non-uniform turbulent dispersion of high-risk chlorine gas based on the energy minimization multi-scale (EMMS) turbulence model. Taking the liquid chlorine release experiment of Jack Rabbit as the object, the simulation accuracy was verified and the non-uniform diffusion characteristics of chlorine gas under varying wind speeds, wind directions and leakage rates were investigated. The results show that the proposed simulation method effectively predict the non-uniform diffusion of chlorine gas in large-scale and high-density scenarios, with errors within 8%. Increased wind speed accelerates the diffusion of chlorine gas in open areas but has limited effect on the concentration distribution in the container-intensive areas. The wind direction deviating from the symmetry axis of the building causes the narrow tube effect, causing the local concentration to rise instantaneously. After the leakage increases, the high concentration area expands to form a barrier effect, and the area with a chlorine volume fraction of more than 0.045 increases by 36.6 %.
