Abstract

ERIES-POLISHED studies the influence of sea-like atmospheric boundary layers (ABL) wind conditions on the pollutant dispersion on deck of a service operation vessel. Moreover, the influence of ship-ship interaction on pollutant dispersion on deck of service operation vessels is assessed and compared to the reference case. Also, an investigation is performed on the influence on pollutant dispersion on deck of the service operation vessel close to typical harbour structures to identify differences to the previous cases. The investigations of the above-mentioned configurations were tested in the closed-circuit Atmospheric Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel (ABLWT) at Eindhoven University of Technology. The results of the wind tunnel measurements are used to validate CFD models of ReFRESCO, OpenFOAM and Star-CCM + flow solvers both at model and full-scale conditions, by research groups in Portugal, the Netherlands and Denmark. This paper presents the early results of objective 1 of the ERIES-POLISHED project, where the ongoing activities for the validation studies of Industry 4.0 methods is being performed.
