18、uch as ease of repair and deployment,required operator training, operator fatigue, and transportabil-ity also affect performance in an actual spill but are notmeasured in this guide. These variables should be consideredalong with the test data when making comparisons or evalua-tions of containment b
19、ooms.5. Summary of Guide5.1 This guide provides standardized procedures for evalu-ating any boom system and provides an evaluation of aparticular booms attributes in different environmental condi-tions and the ability to compare test results of a particular boomtype with others having undergone thes
20、e standard tests.5.2 The maximum wave and tow speeds at which any boomcan effectively gather and contain oil are known as boundaryconditions. Booms that cannot maintain their design draft,freeboard, profile, and buoyancy at these conditions may beless effective. The boundary conditions depend on the
21、 charac-teristics of oil viscosity, oil/water interfacial tension andoil/water density gradient.6. Test Facilities6.1 Several types of test facilities can be used to conduct thetests outlined in this guide:6.1.1 Wave/Tow TankA wave/tow tank has a movablebridge or other mechanism for towing the test
22、device throughwater for the length of the facility. A wave generator may beinstalled on one end, or on the side of the facility, or both.6.1.2 Current TankA current tank is a water-filled tankequipped with a pump or other propulsion system for movingthe water through a test section where the test de
23、vice ismounted.Awave generator may be installed on this type of testfacility.6.1.3 Other facilities, such as private ponds or flumes, mayalso be used, provided the test parameters can be suitablycontrolled.6.2 Ancillary systems for facilities include, but are notlimited to a distribution system for
24、accurately delivering testfluids to the water surface, skimming systems to assist incleaning the facility between tests, and adequate tankage forstoring the test fluids.7. Test Configuration and Instrumentation7.1 The boom should be rigged in a catenary configuration,with the gap equal to 33 % of th
25、e length; or boom gap-to-length ratio of 1:3. Towing bridles are generally provided bythe manufacturer for both ends of the boom which provideattachment points for towing (Fig. 1).At each end of the boom,the towing apparatus shall be joined to the tow bridle or towlead by a single point only. Boom t
26、owing force should bemeasured with in-line load cells positioned between the boomtowing bridles and tow points.7.2 Preload oil should be pumped directly into the boomapex.7.3 Data obtained during each test should include electroni-cally collected data and manually collected data. Oil and waterproper
27、ty data should be based on fluid samples obtained duringthe test period. Recommended data to be collected duringtesting, along with the method of collection, is listed in Table1.8. Test Fluids8.1 Test fluids may be crude, refined, or simulated, butshould be stable and have properties that do not var
28、y during atest run. Test oils for use with this guide should be selected tofall within the range of typical oil properties as defined inAppendix X2 of this guide.8.2 Test fluids should be discharged at ambient watertemperatures to reduce variation in fluid properties through atest run.9. Safety Prec
29、autions9.1 Test operation shall conform to established safety (andregulatory) requirements for both test facility operations andoil handling. Particular caution must be exercised when han-dling flammable or toxic test fluids.FIG. 1 Typical Boom Test Setup in TankF 2084 01 (2007)e1210. Test Variables
30、10.1 At the onset of the test the independent or controlledtest parameters should be selected. The test evaluator shouldinclude a discussion of the procedures that were used toestablish calibration and standardization. These procedurestypically include initial calibrations, pre-test and post-testche
31、cks, sampling requirements and documentation of signifi-cant occurrences/variations, and data precision and accuracy.10.2 Data should be expressed with an indication of vari-ability. Table 2 contains a list of typical measurements showingattainable precision and accuracy values.10.3 Varying surface
32、conditions should be employed duringtesting. Conditions should be measurable and repeatable.Examples of achievable surface conditions in controlled testenvironments are:10.3.1 CalmNo waves generated.10.3.2 Wave #1sinusoidal wave with an H13 of .30 metres(12.0 inches), wavelength of 4.27 metres (14.0
33、 feet), and anaverage period of t=1.7 seconds. (Wave dampening beaches areemployed during the generation of this wave condition).10.3.3 Wave #2Sinusoidal wave with an H13 of .42 metres(16.5 inches), wavelength of 12.8 metres (42.0 feet), and anaverage period of t=2.9 seconds. (Wave dampening beaches
34、 areemployed during the generation of this wave condition).10.3.4 Wave #3A harbor chop condition with an averageH13 of .38 metres (15.0 inches). This is also defined as aconfused sea condition where reflective waves are allowed todevelop. No wavelength is calculated for this condition.where:H13 = si
35、gnificant wave height = the average of the highest13of measured waves,L = wavelength = the distance on a sine wave from troughto trough (or peak to peak), andT = wave period = the time it takes to travel one wave-length.11.
