Assessment Models in Support of the Hazard Assessment Handbook

Abstract

Analytical models are derived to describe the hazards caused by the accidental release of chemicals into the atmosphere or spills onto water. The models encompass a variety of physical phenomena that can occur such as dispersion of vapor in the atmosphere, dispersion of liquid in water, spreading on water, burning of a liquid pool, radiation from flame, etc. Analyses include the modeling of the phenomenon, solution to the governing equations, and detailed workings of specific examples.
