Abstract:

An in-house second order accurate finite-volume code “Chem3D” is used for simulation. The domain of interest is a rectangular box representing the ocean body with an oil-plume discharge at the bottom. A Large-eddy simulation (LES) technique has been used to model the turbulence; this approach directly simulates the large energy carrying flow structures and models the smaller dissipative scales. The numerical implementation has been validated and verified for a large number of cases involving turbulence. The data set provides the geometry coordinates used for modeling, time-averaged velocity field, temperature field and pressure field. Figure 1 shows the non-dimensional time averaged velocity contour on the symmetry plane of the domain. Figure 2 shows the validation of the center line jet trajectory with experiments.
