Significance and Use3.1 This guide will enable design of oil spill dispersantapplica
7、tion equipment using boom and nozzle systems andensure a desired dosage and uniformity across the swath width.3.2 This guide provides information for designing andspecifying dispersant spray application equipment to obtainoptimal application rates. These include specifications forminimum equipment p
8、erformance, equations for estimatingoperational parameters, material considerations, and a list ofinformation to be provided to the equipment purchaser.4. Equipment Description4.1 GeneralOil spill dispersant spray systems include oneor more booms with nozzles to form droplets, a pumping orpressure s
9、ystem to deliver dispersants to the boom, andassociated piping and valving. All systems shall include adispersant flow meter and a pressure gauge. All systems shallbe equipped with provision for cleaning and drainage.4.2 Ship/BoatEach boom holding nozzles shall be de-signed to be mounted near the bo
10、w of the vessel so that thespray is uniformly deposited on the slick surface. Spray unitscan be portable or fixed. Flow correction or straightenerdevices, to ensure laminar flow, shall precede the nozzles.System components should be designed to give a uniformdroplet spray as described in this guide.
11、 The spray patternshould be flat and strike the water in a line perpendicular to thevessels line of travel. The nozzle spray angle should be suchthat spray from adjacent nozzles overlap just above the water.4.3 AirplanesMounting of spray booms on aircraft issubject to federal regulation. Each instal
12、lation or modificationrequires approval.4.3.1 Nozzles may not be necessary on aircraft flying atspeeds greater than 220 km/h (120 knots or 135 mph) becausethe wind shear alone can produce the required droplet sizes.Pressure-activated check valves must be used to eliminatedrainage during nonspraying
13、transits. In order to minimize theeffects of wind shear, nozzles should be oriented aft (180 fromthe direction of flight).4.4 HelicoptersSystems may consist of spray booms withnozzles and pump/tank assemblies directly attached to thehelicopter or a bucket system slung below the helicopter.4.4.1 The
14、bucket system consists of a tank and pumpassembly to which spray booms with nozzles are attached. Theassembly is supported from the helicopter by a cable systemand is remotely-controlled from the helicopter cabin.

Minimum Equipment Performance Specifications5.1 Target DosageOil spill dispersant spray equipmentshall provide a dispersant dosage of between 20 to 100 L perhectare (2 to 10 U
18、.S. gal per acre).5.2 Droplet Size DistributionThe droplet size distributionof the dispersant reaching the target shall have a VolumeMedian Diameter (VMD) of 300 to 500 m. The volumemedian diameter is a means of expressing droplet size in termsof the volume of liquid sprayed. The median volume diame
19、terdroplet size, when measured in terms of volume, is a valuewhere 50 % of the total volume of liquid sprayed is made up ofdroplets with diameters larger than the median value and 50 %smaller than the median value. Droplets having diameterslesser than approximately 300 m have a lower probability ofh
20、itting the target because of excessive wind drift. Particles withdiameters greater than 500 m have a high probability ofpenetrating through the oil slick to the water surface. Dropletsize distribution may be measured using Test Method F 1738.5.3 Maximum Delivery Variation Over Swath WidthTheequipmen
21、t shall be capable of delivering dispersant with amaximum delivery variance of 10 % over the swath width. Theswath width is defined as the length between the points atwhich the delivery drops below 90 % of the design.6. Equipment Design6.1 Dispersant Injection RateThe dispersant injection rate(for u
22、ndiluted or neat application, the dispersant injection rateis equal to the pump rate) must be sufficient to produce therequired dosage.6.1.1 Dispersant injection rate (DIR) should be verifiedusing the following Eqs:DIR 5 1.67 3 1023SWD (1)where:DIR = dispersant injection rate in L/min,S = speed of t
23、he delivery vehicle in km/h,W = swath width in m, andD = dosage in L/ha.Or equivalently in U.S. units:DIR 5 2.33 3 1023SWD (2)where:DIR = dispersant injection rate in U.S. gal/min (USGPM),S = speed of the delivery vehicle in knots (if speed is inmiles per hour multiply by 0.87),W = swath width in ft
24、, andD = dosage in U.S. gal per acre (USGPA).6.2 Droplet SizeShear is the controlling factor in deter-mining droplet size. High shear rates result in small dropletsizes. For dispersant application, a small droplet size is notdesirable, because the dispersant can drift away from the oilslicks. Large
25、droplet sizes are also undesirable because largedroplets can penetrate the oil slick. Experience has shown thata droplet size between 300 to 700 m VMD is most effective.Shear has two components, nozzle shear rate and air shear. Airshear is only important for aircraft flying at speeds greater than150
26、 km/h (80 knots or 100 mph).6.2.1 Nozzle Shear RateIn order to achieve the desireddroplet size, nozzle shear rate should not exceed 10 000reciprocal seconds (s1) for aircraft systems and 2000 recipro-cal seconds for ship or boat systems. Nozzle shear can becalculated using the following Eqs:SR 5 16.
27、7FN/d3(3)where:SR = shear rate in reciprocal seconds (s1),FN = average flow rate per nozzle in L/min (calculatedfrom total flow (dispersant and water) divided by thenumber of nozzles), andd = the diameter of the nozzle orifice in cm.Or equivalently in U.S. units:SR 5 3.85FN/d3(4)where:SR = shear rat
28、e in reciprocal seconds (s1),FN = average flow rate per nozzle in gal/min (USGPM)(calculated from total flow (dispersant and water)divided by the number of nozzles), andd = the diameter of the nozzle orifice in inches (in.).6.2.2 Air ShearIn addition to the nozzle shear rate calcu-lations shown, air
29、craft dispersant application systems shouldbe designed to optimize droplet size distribution by minimizingthe differential between the speed of the aircraft and thedispersant exit speed. Differential speed should be less than 60m/s (200 ft/s) in order to ensure close to 100 % depositionwithin the sw
30、ath width.6.2.2.1 Differential speed shall be verified using the follow-ing Eqs:SD 5 SA 2 0.212FN/d2! (5)where:SD = the differential speed in m/s,SA = the aircraft speed in m/s (for speed in km/h multiplyby 0.28),FN = the average flow rate per nozzle in L/min, andd = the nozzle orifice diameter in c
31、m.Or equivalently in U.S. units:SD 5 SA 2 0.409FN/d2! (6)where:SD = the differential speed in ft/s,SA = the aircraft speed in ft/s (multiply knots by 1.69 toget ft/s),FN = the average flow rate per nozzle in gal/min (US-GPM), andd = the nozzle orifice diameter in inches (in.).7. Material Characteris
32、tics7.1 Corrosion ResistanceMaterials on ship or boat sys-tems should be corrosion-resistant to salt water. All materialsthat come into contact with dispersants should be compatiblewith that dispersant. Special attention should be given to pumpcomponents. Consultation with the dispersant manufacture
