1 Martin, MatthewComparison of empirically based calculation methods for pipe flares to computational fluid dynamics2007As available computational resources increase and the use of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) becomes more widely accepted wider classes of industrial scale combustion systems are being simulated and optimized using these resources. A largebody of empirically based work has already been assembled ...
2 Duck, BrianComputational fluid dynamic modeling of a ground flare2007A major ethylene plant underconstruction in Al-Jubail, Saudi Arabia found itself under pressure from neighboring facilities and regulatory agencies to reduce flare emissions, flame visibility, and noise. Plant personnel contacted a company that had pioneered and commercialized a grade mounted, multi...
3 Smith, Scot K.; Modi, Jay B.; McDonald, J. M.; Little, C.; Smith, Joseph D.; Berg, L. M.Environmental testing of an advanced flare tip for a low-profile flare burning ethylene2007
4 Smith, Joseph D.; Suo-Anttila, Ahti; Smith, Scot K.; Modi, Jay B.Evaluation of the air-demand, flame height, and radiation from low-profile flare tips using ISIS-3D2007Low-profile flare fields pose significant design challenges including elongated flames, adequate air supply to burner tips located on inner rows and high radiation flux from the flame to the surrounding wind fence. Recent work completed by engineers at Alion Science and Technology for Zeeco, Inc. ha...
5 Shore, DavidImproving flare design a transition from art-form to engineering science2007Many of the day-to-day activities surrounding Flaring, at both the project design and operational stages, are vague and apparently outside the control of the Flare Engineer. Design specifications usually only cover a single case out of a multitude of possible compositions and flows. In service, flow...
6 Hong, J.; Baukal, C.; Bastianen, M.; Bellovich, J.; Leary, K.Innovative steam-assisted flare technology2007A new steam-assisted flare has been developed which reduces or eliminates some of the potential limitations of conventional steam-assisted flares. The improved performance includes significantly reduced steam requirements (>30% reduction), elimination of two of the three steam supply lines, simplifi...
7 Smith, Philip J.; Thurston, C.; Chambers, Allan K.LES analysis of sour gas flare emissions under variable wind conditions2007
8 Varner, Vance; Fox, Scott; Schwartz, Robert; Wozniak, RussellPressure-assisted flare emissions testing2007Due to increased concern regarding air emissions of highly-reactive volatile organic compounds (HRVOC) in the Greater Houston area, emissions from various sources in the area are now subject to much more scrutiny by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. One potential source of emissions is ...

10 Dahm, Werner J.A.Scaling relations for flare interactions, flame lengths, and crosslighting requirements in large flare fields2007Flare fields typically consist of many closely-spaced flares arranged in parallel rows. Each flare in the field produces an axisymmetric buoyant jet flame that for a limited vertical distance develops essentially independent of the other flames in the field. However, at a distance above the flare ti...
