A-TEAM: Advanced Training System for Emergency Management WP 02: Simulation Exercises Dr. Kostas Karatzas Department of Mechanical Engineering Laboratory of Heat Transfer and Enviromental Engineering Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Greece

Objectives • To develop a rich and comprehensive set and case library of emergency simulations for typical emergency cases; • To build a set of example cases for the case-based reasoning tools of the training system; • To select, configure in terms of their specific parameter sets, and simulate case examples to represent typical situations, frequently encountered that are also characterised by their didactic value; • To prepare the underlying simulation models for their direct integration into the Emergency Management Trainer (EMT) through a modular client-server architecture.

Description of work • • Definition of the example cases: done Preparation of the data sets for each case: in progress Simulation of the emergency cases: in progress Post-processing the results for use with the case-based reasoning, for inclusion as explanatory examples, and for direct integration in the EMT and interactive simulation: in progress

On-line Models • • • SPILL: dynamic release model TIMES: dynamic 3 -D Eulerian code DYNPUFF: dynamic multi-puff model GSTM: Gaussian short-term model BLAST explosion models FIRE: steady-state 2 -D fire model SOILGW: stochastic 1 -D soil/groundwater infiltration model MS: Metodo Speditivo DRSM: dynamic river spill model UDM: Unified Dispersion Model

Off-line Models • MIMO/CFX Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models: Numerical analysis of fluid flow, heat transfer, and Related phenomena • SLAB Simulates the atmospheric dispersion of denser-than-air releases • ISC 2 Steady-state Gaussian plume model
