Equally applicable to the design of fl are systems for offshore platforms, gas plants, refi neries and chemical plants.

Data may be entered and reported in the users choice of units and may be converted at any time.

Correlations for modelling a range of fl are tips including sonic tips, pipefl are tips and steam or air assisted tips. For assisted fl ares the quantity of steam or air required for smokeless operation can be calculated.

Multiple correlations to predict the emissivity of a wide range of hydrocarbon fl uids with different fl are tips.

Liquid fl aring systems can be handled.

Wide range of algorithms for calculation of thermal radiation. Includes integrated multipoint methods and the Hajek/Ludwig and Brzustowski/Sommer methods described in the API guidelines for fl are system design.

Full 3D fl ame shape analysis with complete fl exibility in specifi cation of the location and orientation of multiple stacks.

Range of options for analysing the noise spectrum generated by fl are systems including user defi ned noise spectra.

Features

Multiple environmental scenarios allowing rapid evaluation of fl are systems under different wind speeds and directions.

Unlimited combinations of stacks, booms and fl are tips.

Calculation of radiation, noise spectrum and surface temperatures at multiple receptor points.

Ability to defi ne multiple receptor grids in multiple planes for calculation of radiation, noise or surface temperatures.

Plotting of grid radiation, noise and surface temperature results as isopleth contours for sterile area defi nition.

Receptor point characteristics for calculating surface temperatures include mass, absorbtivity, emissivity, area, specifi c heat, orientation and initial temperature.

Sizing of stack or boom length to meet radiation, noise or surface temperature limits at defi ned receptor points.

Import of fi les from DOS version of Flaresim.

Flexible reports including Quality Assurance options.
