Modelling the heat transfer, lading response, and pressure relief of crude oil rail tank cars in a fire / prepared for: Transport Canada ; prepared by: Allan Runstedtler, Robert Symonds, Patrick Boisvert. : T44-3/26-2021E-PDF
"This report describes combined heat/mass transfer and crude oil property/reaction modeling of rail car tanks exposed to fire. The work was commissioned by Transport Canada and was carried out over several years by Natural Resources Canada/CanmetENERGY-Ottawa labs. The intent is to explore key aspects that affect heating rate, thermal response of the lading, and release of the lading through the pressure release valve (PRV), and to present case studies of fire scenarios. The cases simulated considered typical fill levels of a range of crude oils, a dilbit, and a condensate in a fully engulfing fire. The important phenomena are examined and model validation is described. Conclusions are drawn regarding which variables were found to be important for improving safety in accidents"--Abstract, page 3.
