5203 |a"Experiments were conducted to determine the conditions for no containment of oil by a boom, the oil-water interfacial friction coefficient and the maximum angle which a boom can be angled to the flow to deflect an oil slick. The criterion that the densimetric Froude number has to be smaller than about 5 for containment was verified. In addition, a new criterion was discovered which specifies a minimum boom draught. The local value of the interfacial friction coefficient was evaluated along the slick; using measured slick profiles, and was found to decrease along the length of a slick. The friction coefficient also increased with increasing oil viscosity. Based on the experimental results, an empirical relationship was derived for the maximum angle at which a barrier could be angled to the flow to completely divert an oil slick"--Abstract.
