3 3 of 9 Introduction This appendix describes the CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics)-approach named Method 3 in section 5.4 Hot air flow in the NORSOK Standard C-004 Helicopter deck on offshore installations, Edition 2, May The methodology is developed in close corporation with the offshore helicopter company operators and has been subject for discussion within relevant fluid flow and operational communities. The aim of the method is to analyze the temperature gradient levels in the airspace above the helideck with predefined measures reflecting different risk levels. Figure 1 in section 5.4 Hot air flow is derived by utilizing this method. Background One of the risks of helicopter flight operations on offshore installations is related to turbulence and thermals effects from hot exhaust gas emission from gas turbines and other types of machinery, cold and warm flaring and safe locations from process blow down. These risks can be controlled by either proper design or operational measures leading to restrictions influencing flight regularity. Hot air flow, combined with a sudden change in air temperature, may have the following two major effects on the helicopter performance: Possible stalling of helicopter engines due to sudden air density changes through the turbine compressors; Significantly reduced helicopter lift capacity. The risk of compressor stalling varies with helicopter type. In most cases it increases significantly with a momentary temperature increase. Sudden temperature increase will likely be induced from turbulence. The level of temperature increase and temperature rise time will depend on the temperature of the exhaust gas and the turbulent characteristics and motions in the flight zone. Turbulent characteristics may be defined by a variety of turbulent length scales and turbulent velocities (size and eddy velocities). CFD is believed to be one of the best available industrial tools today to be able to manage the risk related to hot air plumes. A CFD-tool gives a fairly good macro representation of the main fluid flow across a platform but the main challenge is to quantify the sudden increase in temperature in a turbulent environment; i.e. the turbulent temperature fluctuations as a function of time. CFD, turbulent temperature fluctuations and TGM The relations between turbulent fluctuating temperatures and CFD are illustrated in figure 1.
4 4 of 9 Figure 1. Schematic illustration showing the relation between the real temperature fluctuations (u), the averaged value (û) and the fluctuating values (u ). CFD with standard turbulence equation are by definition time- and space-averaged solutions and the variety of scale turbulence (not resolved turbulence) is treated with mixing models in order to predict an averaged dispersed/mixed solution (k-e, RANS and more). Hence a CFD with standard turbulence models can only provide the average temperature (û); also shown as the solid blue line in the hot air plume in figure 1. The fluctuating values (u ) are not explicitly resolved but are converted into a mass, species and heat - mixer ; named artificial viscosity. When it comes to utilization of CFD results, the present method proposes to analyze the vertical temperature gradient profile. The mass and heat exchange carried out by the turbulent eddies (which we know takes place in both the horizontal and vertical plane and results in turbulent temperature fluctuations) can be accounted for by analyzing the vertical temperature gradient. It is proposed to extract the vertical temperature profiles into a Temperature Gradient Matrix (TGM). The TGM is shown in figure 2.
5 5 of 9 Figure 2. The TGM and illustration of the tabulation from a hot air plume exposing the air space volume above the helideck. The columns in the TGM represent the temperature rise above ambient temperature (in o C) and the rows represent the height in the air space volume above the helideck. The air space volume is discretized in 5 meters (below 30 m) and 10 meters (above 30 m) intervals, hence <15 (33) means the vertical volume between 10 and 15 meters. Each simulation will have a unique tabulation in the TGM. Operational risk assessment and tolerance criteria The risk assessment of flight operation and possible exposure of the helicopter engine to sudden temperature rise from hot air plumes has been performed by the offshore helicopter operator companies involved in this study. Several aspects have been considered when analyzing the risk with a hot air plume in the air space volume, hereby take-off and landing approaches (Takeoff Decision Point (TDP) and Landing Committal Point). The assessments reflect the effect of wind directions, obstructions and other typical installations in the areas. The risk levels are categorized into different levels with their associated mitigating measures in order to have an acceptable operation. The levels are shown in figure 3 with the colors green, yellow and red. Figure 3. TGM with risk controlling measures.
6 6 of 9 The restriction levels in the TGM are not subject for local adjustment and should be applied as shown in figure 3*. For any turbine configuration exposing the air space volume above the helideck the following applies: No operation: Unacceptable risk level for flight operation. Caution: Acceptable risk level for flight operation but information about hot air plume shall be available to pilots. Normal operation: Acceptable risk level for flight operation. *) The coloring and the absolute values (tolerance criterion) in the TGM may be subject to an evaluation at a later stage based on experience and/or new information. The tolerance criterion is owned by the offshore helicopter company operators. Methodology (step by step) This section describes in detail the following steps that need to be assessed when utilizing the TGM-method. Figure 4. TGM-methodology. The method is illustrated in figure 4 and consists of 4 steps: 1. Perform CFD hot exhaust plume dispersion for different wind speeds and wind directions for a given turbine configuration
7 7 of 9 2. Examine temperature profiles in the airspace volume and extract maximum temperature at different heights above helideck for all wind speeds 3. Apply the fixed Tolerance Criteria (TC) and determine restriction levels 4. Operational information to pilots Each of the four steps can be described as follows: 1) Perform CFD hot exhaust plume dispersion for different wind speeds and wind directions for a given turbine configuration a) Based on a given turbine power configuration, extract the following dimensioning parameters: Exhaust composition and molar mass (g/mole) Exhaust rate (kg/s) Exhaust temperature at stack outlet ( o C)* Height of exhaust stack outlet (m) Exhaust stack outlet direction and diameter (m) *) The method can take into account the effect of a WHRU (Waste Heat Recovery Unit). A WHRU will lower the exhaust outlet temperature and is considered as beneficial in this perspective. NB! If a WHRU is to be considered in a design base case, robust control systems must be demonstrated to ensure that the exhaust temperature at stack outlet does not exceed the dimensioning temperature. b) CFD simulation parameters: A 3D representation of the platform geometry must be present and available. Model the exhaust outlet parameters in accordance with the existing guidelines for the CFD-code. Align the wind direction in the simulation so the dispersed hot air plume is centrally located over the helideck platform. For the given wind direction, simulations should be run with different wind speeds. Typical wind speeds could be: 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48 and 52 knots Increased wind speed will force the hot air plume down closer to the helideck and dilute the hot air plume. 2) Examine temperature profiles in the airspace volume and extract maximum temperature at different heights above helideck for all wind speeds. a) Discretization of the air space volume: The air space volume is defined as a virtual cylindrical volume with a diameter of 20 meters centrally located above the center of the helideck. Use the vertical discretization intervals as described in the TGM (5 and 10 meters) from 0 to 50 meters above the helideck. NB! Ensure that the hot air plume is centrally located in the air space volume. The air space volume must be exposed to the maximum temperatures in the hot air plume. In case of smaller deviation, i.e. non-alignment with the center of the helideck, smaller offset position of the air space volume (max ± 10 o ) can be accepted. However, the distance from center helideck to exhaust stack outlet must always be the same. b) Examination of the volumes:
8 8 of 9 For each simulation, examine and extract the maximum temperature in the vertical discretized control volumes of the air space volume; 0-5 meter above helideck, 5 to 10 meter above helideck, and so on. The maximum temperature in each of the vertical volumes is then transferred into the TGM. 3) Apply the fixed Tolerance Criteria (TC) and determine restriction levels (wind speed and sector). When the extracted temperatures are tabulated for each of the different wind speed simulations you will be able to identify the location of the hot air plume. You will also be able to determine the actual wind speed the plume enters the restriction zones; i.e. No operation and Caution (defined as the limiting wind speed). A refinement study between the two initial wind speed intervals may be necessary in order find the limiting wind speed with 1 knot accuracy (often wanted). The limiting wind speed is found from the simulations performed with the worst case wind direction as described above. The limiting wind sector shall then be determined by performing simulations with the limiting wind speed with different wind directions. The outer boundaries of the sector is found when the temperature representing the restriction zones* in the TGM is aligned with the outer perimeter line of the helideck; i.e. the projected hot air plume is not touching inside the perimeter line. *) For restrictions type No operation this refers to the 30 o C or 40 o C isotherm depending on height above helideck and for simplicity it is recommended to use 30 o C. The same approach is applicable when determining the outer boundaries of the Caution sector using the 2 o C * isotherm. If several wind speeds enters the No operation restriction zone, the lowest wind speed shall be used as the limiting wind speed. For cases when you have entered the No operation restriction at the limiting wind speed (lowest) and leave the zone by a higher wind speed (due to increased hot air dispersion, and hence lower temperatures), the limiting wind speed may be referred to as an limiting wind speed interval. This special conditions needs to be discussed in more details with the operators. Hence both limiting wind speed and wind sector is found. 4) Operationalize information to crew A new design case should not result in operational restrictions of type No operation. In such case, changes in design or layout should be performed and a new iteration should be carried out (back to step 1). The restriction levels must be submitted for operational assessment and should be documented with the updated TGM.
9 9 of 9 and the following text: Platform B* -No operations: Wind speed > 25 kts in sector Caution: sector *) If WHRU is included in the base case, that should be stated. Note that for Caution only the wind sector shall be reported. The Jeppesen charts, or similar, will be updated by the helicopter operator companies.
