Consequence Modeler Skill

Purpose

The Consequence Modeler Skill performs consequence analysis for hazardous material releases including dispersion modeling, fire and explosion effects, and determination of effect zones.

Capabilities

• Source term modeling
• Atmospheric dispersion (Gaussian, dense gas)
• Pool fire modeling
• Jet fire modeling
• Vapor cloud explosion (VCE) analysis
• BLEVE modeling
• Toxic effect assessment
• Effect zone mapping

Usage Guidelines

When to Use

• Quantifying release consequences
• Establishing effect zones
• Supporting siting studies
• Emergency planning

Prerequisites

• Release scenarios defined
• Material properties available
• Site meteorological data
• Receptor locations identified

Best Practices

• Use appropriate dispersion models
• Consider atmospheric stability
• Account for terrain effects
• Document modeling assumptions
