Class SeparatorFireExposure

java.lang.Object

neqsim.process.util.fire.SeparatorFireExposure

public final class SeparatorFireExposure
extends Object

Convenience wrapper that wires separator geometry and process conditions into the fire calculators so they can be used directly from NeqSim process simulations.

Method Details

evaluate

public static SeparatorFireExposure.FireExposureResult evaluate(Separator separator,
 SeparatorFireExposure.FireScenarioConfig config)

Aggregates fire heat-load, wall-temperature, and rupture calculations for a separator timestep using only the separator and a simple configuration object.

Parameters:

separator - separator instance that already reflects the current level/pressure/temperature

config - fire scenario configuration; defaults match typical API 521 pool fire settings

Returns:

populated SeparatorFireExposure.FireExposureResult

evaluate

public static SeparatorFireExposure.FireExposureResult evaluate(Separator separator,
 SeparatorFireExposure.FireScenarioConfig config,
 Flare flare,
 double flareGroundDistanceM)

Aggregates fire heat-load, wall-temperature, and rupture calculations including optional flare radiation based on the actual flaring heat duty.

Parameters:

separator - separator instance that already reflects the current level/pressure/temperature

config - fire scenario configuration; defaults match typical API 521 pool fire settings

flare - flare instance supplying real-time heat duty and radiation parameters; may be null

flareGroundDistanceM - horizontal distance from flare base to separator [m]

Returns:

populated SeparatorFireExposure.FireExposureResult

applyFireHeating

public static double applyFireHeating(Separator separator,
 SeparatorFireExposure.FireExposureResult fireState,
 double timeStepSeconds)

Applies the calculated fire heat by setting the separator duty. The temperature change is then handled by Separator.runTransient(double, java.util.UUID), which consumes the heat input when performing the energy balance.

Parameters:

separator - separator to update

fireState - fire heat-load bundle produced by evaluate(Separator, FireScenarioConfig)

timeStepSeconds - timestep duration in seconds (retained for backward compatibility)

Returns:

heat duty applied to the separator in watts
