Abstract

The development of the numerical simulation technology of oil containment by boom is introduced here and the vital role of oil boom on clearing up the spilled oil is elaborated. Based on the numerical wave tank using the momentum source method, oil containment by boom in waves and currents is numerically analyzed here utilizing the commercial CFD software FLUENT. Finally, the relationship between wave parameters and loss rate is investigated.
