8 Would you see the same effect on fires? It does not calculate
a "dynamic" flame length reducing faster than without
blowdown? Only the jet fire total duration would be affected?
Jet fires will see an effect if the time over which they are averaged is such that the blowdown has a
significant effect on accidental release rate.
9 Does Phast 8.1 allow for dispersion modelling for upwind and
cross wind conditions?
No
37 You mentioned that Phast considers the first 20s for jet fire
modelling. Is there a way to specify a longer duration to
identify the impact on say a firewall, so that we can
demonstrate the advantage of having blowdown?
Yes - 20 secs are the default but the average time for jets can be increased by users (it is a
parameter).
47 For jet fires, are you not able to specify a particular time of
interest...for escalation purposes...i.e. to characterize the
behavior of the jet fire at the specified time of interest?
Yes, you can specify a time of interest.
