Abstract: Results from initial experiments to study the effectiveness of water spray curtains in dispersing LNG vapors are presented. The program consisted of outdoor tests with spills of LNG into a 3 m X 3 m diked area surrounded by water spray nozzles, as well as reduced-scale, model experiments in a wind tunnel simulating massive spills of LNG into a 60 m X 60 m diked area with spray-curtain protection. The outdoor tests indicated good dispersion performance of both vertical downward and vertical upward sprays. The model experiments of the large, 60 m X 60 m spills indicated good dilution performance for certain spray conditions using vertical upward sprays downward sprays had to be inclined toward the dike wall to be effective.
