A Numerical Study on Oil Leakage and Damaged Stability of Oil Carrier

The objective of the present paper is to carry out a study on coupled transient process of the oil leakage and the damaged stability of a crude oil carrier. For this purpose, numerical simulations based on MPS (Moving particle Semi-Implicit) method are carried out considering a two dimensional small scaled model and the oil-water multiphase flow with free surface. The results are compared with that obtained by the stability analysis software SSTAB, which provides the final list angle in case of the damage, and show good agreement.© 2010 ASME
