Subsea Releases CFD
Subsea releases are a complex fluid modelling case in which gas and condensate among other components are released at high pressure at the seabed. The release including the gas which is composed of bubbles that tend to break up while being transported upwards under the influence of buoyancy and transported laterally by the currents which has varying speeds and differing directions at various depths below the surface.
​
The gas then is released from a typically wide area at the sea surface, mixing with the air and forming a flammable and/or toxic cloud.
​
Other outputs include the forces on the capping stack as it is lowered to the sea bed. These include drag and lift as well as torsion. The forces are important and calculated for operators as guidance for the lowering of the capping stack.
