Summary

This report describes a systematic study aimed at establishing the capabilities of evacuation systems, namely freefall, installed on offshore structures as a function of installation conditions, and load capacity of the life craft.

Using the U.S. Department of Commerce, National Technical Information Service Lifeboat Analysis System (LAS), it was possible to predict the behaviour of a freefall lifeboat deployed from a freefall ramp evacuation system located on a fixed platform into calm weather conditions.

The simulations involved the investigation of the behaviour of a freefall lifeboat from when the lifeboat is released to the time it enters the water. Weather conditions were not a factor, so seas remained at Beaufort 0 (calm). Particular attention was focused on the effects of survival craft longitudinal centre of gravity (LCG) conditions (either forward or aft), ramp offset, and ramp angle.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This report covers a series of systematic computer simulations based on a freefall evacuation system deployed from a fixed offshore installation.

The simulations are aimed at evaluating lifeboat evacuation capabilities as a function of ramp conditions and longitudinal centre of gravity (LCG) position. This will be further used to supplement the results of freefall physical model scale experiments.

A specific group of performance measures was found to have practical use for evaluating evacuation capabilities from earlier research phases. This provided guidance for the initial conditions used during the simulations.

The program that was used to evaluate the behaviour of a freefall lifeboat during deployment was the Lifeboat Analysis System (LAS), developed by the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), U.S. Department of Commerce.

The launch prediction model evaluates the freefall lifeboat launch by dividing it into four phases; the ramp phase, rotation phase, freefall phase, and water-entry phase. “The lifeboat is idealized as a three-dimensional rigid body. The shape of the lifeboat, its weight and inertial characteristics, and the free-fall height and launch angle are defined by the analyst. The launch prediction model can be used to compute the trajectory, acceleration, and velocity of the lifeboat from the time that it is released until after it has entered the water.” (Nelson 1991)

The simulation work dealt only with the evacuation phase of the Escape-Evacuation-Rescue process. The launch process is of interest, starting with the release, and ending with splash down.

2.0 STUDY OBJECTIVES

The main objective of this work is to evaluate the performance of a totally enclosed motor propelled survival craft (TEMPSC) launched from a stationary platform. The effects of changing the system’s configuration or arrangement are quantified in this report. Three different configuration parameters were varied:

(12)

LCG position (either forward or aft location with respect to the original LCG), ramp angle, ramp offset (length in front of the lifeboat’s guide rail to the end of the launch ramp). Height above the calm water and hull-rail clearance of the TEMPSC were constant throughout all tests.

The simulation data was used to supplement the physical model scale experiments that were conducted at the Institute for Ocean Technology (IOT), Offshore Engineering Basin (OEB) during the months of January and February 2003.

3.0 SIMULATION SETUP

The NTIS Lifeboat Analysis System is a developed numerical model that predicts the launch behaviour of freefall lifeboats. “The lifeboat is idealized as a three dimensional assemblage of triangular plates. The trajectory and orientation of the lifeboat during launch are predicted in two-dimensional space. The complete launch is divided into four distinct phases: the ramp phase, the rotational phase, the free-fall phase, and the water entry phase.” (Nelson 1991) The analyst has to define the characteristics of the freefall lifeboat such as hull and canopy shape, weight, and inertial parameters. The initial launch conditions are also specified by the analyst such as freefall height, launch angle, and ramp offset.

3.1 Simulated Models

3.1.1 Totally Enclosed Motor Propelled Survival Craft (TEMPSC)

During the physical freefall model testing, a 1:13 model of the freefall lifeboat was constructed. Using the program Rhinoceros, a 3D modeling program, a three-dimensional model was created of the freefall lifeboat.

(13)

Figure 3.1 Physical freefall model Figure 3.2 Simulated freefall lifeboat The digital model of the lifeboat was then multiplied by a scaling factor of 13 to accurately represent a full-scale freefall lifeboat. The model needed to be defined by using a “network of nodes on the surface of the hull and canopy and a series of triangular plates that are connected to these nodes.” (Nelson 1991). There were problems encountered during this procedure. The first mesh created contained 777 unique nodes, and 1161 triangular plates. The program returned an error message indicating the maximum number of nodes and plates to be 400 and 600, respectively. A less dense mesh was then generated, containing 286 nodes and 367 triangular plates. The difference in the two meshes can be observed in figures 3.3 and 3.4.

(14)

Figure 3.4 Low density triangular mesh

The mass properties were then calculated by using the hydrostatics and swing results of the 1:13 freefall model, located in Appendix 1. Since the data used was at a scale of 1:13, it had to be adjusted accordingly. This was done by using the following equations: Lm L=λ (1) m 3∇ = ∇ λ (2) m 5 I I =λ (3) where: λ scaling factor

L length of full-scale vessel Lm length of model vessel

∇ volume of displacement of full-scale vessel ∇m volume of displacement of model vessel I mass moment of inertia of full-scale vessel Im mass moment of inertia of model vessel

The lifeboat analysis system requires launch guides located at half the height of the boat, however, in the physical model experiments used a single launch guide located at the keel of the boat was used. To make the guide rails the same

(15)

(simulation and physical models), the guide rail of the computer-simulated lifeboat was lowered to the keel. This was achieved by locating two nodes which correspond to the keel of the boat, and enter their unique coordinates into the input file. After a couple of attempts following this approach the guide rail was successfully moved to the keel.

3.1.2 Freefall Deployment System

The deployment system consisted of a launch ramp set at some angle with respect to the horizontal. For this series of simulations ramp angles of 25º, 35º, and 45º were used. The ramp was outfitted with rollers to allow the boat to travel freely. The height of the rollers to the keel of the lifeboat was adjusted so that it was equivalent to the physical model.

The center of gravity of the boat was 25.0m above the still water surface. The simulation program also allowed the analyst to adjust the launch offset that is the distance from the end of the launch rail to the end of the launch ramp. This was set to 4.85m for the normal conditions.

(16)

Figure 3.6 Simulated launch system showing freefall lifeboat in launch configuration

3.2 Initial Conditions

To study the effect of launching a freefall TEMPSC with different loading conditions, the center of gravity of the boat was moved forward and aft of its normal position. The ramp angle was altered to study the behaviour of the boat when launched from different angles, and the length of the ramp was increased or decreased depending on the simulation at the time to determine if a change in ramp offset has any beneficial impact on the lifeboat behaviour.

3.3 Data Collection

The Lifeboat Analysis System has the capability to graph and tabulate the simulated data, however, due to some incompatibilities with IOT’s system, this was not possible. A method was derived by which the data generated was

(17)

exported to a data analysis program called IGOR. Appropriate graphs were created and analyzed, and will be presented later on in this report.

3.4 Co-ordinate System

The coordinate systems used in the analysis of this series of simulations can be defined as follows:

• Local Coordinate System

The local right-handed system has its origin at the aft end of the keel along the centre line. This coordinate system describes the geometry of the lifeboat. The X-axis is defined as parallel to the keel and is positive to the bow; the Y-axis is defined to port and the Z-Y-axis upwards.

• Global Coordinate System

The global right-handed system has its origin at the centre of gravity of the lifeboat. The global coordinate axes are parallel to the local coordinate system. This coordinate system is used to determine the forces that act abound the lifeboat.

• Inertial Coordinate System

The right-handed inertial coordinate system has its origin located on the water surface directly below the centre of gravity of the freefall lifeboat. This system is used to describe the acceleration, velocity, and position of the lifeboat. The X-axis is parallel to the X-axis of the global coordinate system at time zero.

4.0 SIMULATION MATRIX

The simulations were divided into series that typically involved a systematic change of one parameter while all others were held constant. A code system, adopted from the physical model scale testing, was used throughout the simulation program to present the test setup conditions, which is shown in Table

(18)

5.1 below, along with the corresponding values. Before each simulation, a new input file was created that corresponded to the values for each specific series. Table 4.1 Code for test setup – Freefall Simulation

LCG position G1 G2 G3 (Normal) 4.68m (Fwd Pos) 4.81m (Aft Pos) 4.29m Ramp Angle L35 L25 L45 (35º) (25º) (45º) Ramp Offset R1 R2 R3 (Normal) 4.85m (Fwd) 4.19m (Aft) 5.51m

Series A investigated the effects of changing the centre of gravity of the freefall lifeboat from aft, mid ship, and fwd position in the baseline launch conditions, which include a ramp angle of L35 (35°), a ramp offset of R1 (4.85m), and a free fall height of 25m. In this phase of testing, the ramp angle, ramp offset, and freefall height remained fixed. Results of these simulations show how the behaviour of the lifeboat changes with the varying centre of gravity.

Series B studied the behaviour of the lifeboat by changing the ramp angle from 25° (L25), 35° (L35), and 45° (L45). Centre of gravity of the boat was held constant at G1 (4.68m), along with the ramp offset of R1 (4.85m), and freefall height of 25m.

Series C simulated the change in ramp offset from 4.85m (R1), 4.19m (R2), and 5.51m (R3) and the behaviour of the freefall lifeboat was observed. In this series, the centre of gravity (G1), and ramp angle (L35) were held in the normal positions, and the freefall height remained at 25m.

For all the simulations, the mass moment of inertia was held constant. The change in behaviour of the lifeboat caused by the change in mass moment of inertia was very small when compared to the change in centre of gravity, ramp angle, and ramp offset.

Since the computer simulated freefall lifeboat was generated from the calibrated 1:13 freefall physical model, the simulated boat had all the same characteristics as the physical model.

The input file was divided into the following parts:

• After the 3D computer model of the freefall lifeboat and the triangular mesh was created, as described earlier, a list of all the unique vertices of the triangular mesh each unique vertices assigned a different number, and a list of the triangles with the three vertices that correspond to each triangle. These parts of the input file remain the same for every series. Three attempts were needed to complete this portion of the input file. • The second part of the input file consists of all the initial parameters of the

freefall lifeboat launch, which include; freefall height, launch angle, launch offset, rail friction, centre of gravity, moment of inertia, weight, launch guides, gravity, and water unit weight.

Many of these input parameters, such as freefall height, rail friction, moment of inertia, weight, gravity, and water unit weight, were determined using the data collected during Phase 3 of the EER research program, and scaling them according to equations located in section 4.1.1 These parameters were kept constant for the duration of the simulations. The final input file can be located in Appendix 2.

(20)

The other parameters were changed according to the series of interest. This task was done by editing the input file and importing the newly edited file into the Lifeboat Analysis System.

The simulation results were then exported from the LAS program as 5 separate files, each of which consisted of 3 columns of data. These include:

• Trajectory o X position o Z position o Pitch angle • Velocity o X velocity o Z velocity o Angular velocity • Acceleration o X acceleration o Z acceleration o Angular acceleration • Forces o Force o Moment arm o Force direction

The last file consisted of X and Z accelerations on a specific location of the lifeboat, simulating the acceleration at which an occupant of the lifeboat sitting in that location would experience.

These files were then imported into IGOR, for analysis and display.

5.0 RESULTS

To ensure that the simulated data was accurate, two sets of observations were made. The first was to observe the behaviour of the lifeboat when launched from the launch ramp in terms of projectile motion. The second set was focused on the

(21)

behaviour of the lifeboat caused by changes in the centre of gravity of the lifeboat, launch ramp offset, and launch ramp angle.

5.1 Projectile Motion

5.1.1 Trajectory

A freefall lifeboat experiences projectile motion when it leaves the end of the launch ramp. The simulated data shows that the simulated lifeboat also experiences this motion, as can be seen in figure 7.1.

Figure 5.1 Trajectory motion with normal conditions

In the above figure, the ramp angle is 35°, centre of gravity and ramp offset are normal conditions, and the freefall height is 25m. It can be seen that the simulated lifeboat travels along the launch ramp at 35°, and then experiences an arch motion after leaving the ramp. This is a typical motion subjected to a rigid body in freefall.

(22)

5.1.2 Pitch Angle

Observed was the change in the pitch angle during the process of the launch. The pitch angle remains the same for the duration the boat is on the launch ramp, and increases when the boat leaves the ramp. This is an expected result. There is one error, namely, a rapid decrease in pitch angle prior to leaving the ramp. The rapid change in pitch angle has not been explained. It has been assumed that the problem is caused by complications with the interaction of the mathematical equations used in the simulation program and the lifeboat design itself. The figure below demonstrates the change in pitch angle with the ramp angle is 35°, centre of gravity and ramp offset are normal conditions, and the freefall height is 25m. 50 40 30 20 10 0 Pitc h an gle ( deg rees ) 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 X values (m) Pitch Angle Ramp Phase Error Freefall phase

5.1.3 Velocity

Using the same normal conditions as above, the X velocity and Z velocities were observed and plotted. The velocity in the X direction follows the laws of physics exactly. The velocity increases at a constant rate while the boat is on the launch ramp. The instance the boat leaves the ramp, there is no increase in the X velocity until contact with the water is made.

The Z velocity is also correct. The boat’s velocity increases at a constant rate while on the launch ramp. Once the boat leaves the ramp, the boat experiences projectile motion in which the Z velocity increases at a great constant rate until the boat makes contact with the water and the velocity decreases to zero. This can be seen in the following figure.

5.1.4 Acceleration

During the ramp phase of the launch, the lifeboat travels at a constant

acceleration in the X direction. This can be seen in the following figure as a flat line. Also observed was that when the lifeboat no longer had contact with the launch ramp, the X velocity remained constant therefore the X acceleration became zero. 15 10 5 0 X ac c e ler a tion ( m /s 2 ) 10 8 6 4 2 0 Time (s)

The Z acceleration also shows the wave trend. When the lifeboat is on the launch ramp it travels at a constant Z acceleration, shown as a flat line in Figure 5.6. When the lifeboat leaves the launch ramp its vertical acceleration increases until the freefall phase begins when the acceleration becomes constant again.

5.2 Results of Simulation Matrix

5.2.1 Change in Centre of Gravity – Series A

Depending on the procedure used to board a freefall lifeboat, the centre of gravity of the lifeboat could be moved forward or aft of the normal position. To simulate this, the centre of gravity of the simulated lifeboat was moved forward (G2) ad aft (G3) of the normal position.

Figure 5.7 Effect of change in CG on trajectory of the lifeboat As can be seen in the above figure, the lifeboat travels the greatest distance in the X direction when the centre of gravity is in the aft position. Since the center of gravity of the lifeboat remains on the launch ramp longer with the aft position, the boat is able to have a greater velocity in the X direction at the end of the ramp, allowing the boat to travel further.

(27)

The normal position of the lifeboat’s centre of gravity produced the greatest increase in pitch angle, which could possibly be incorrect. The pitch angle increases the most during the rotational phase of the launch, which starts when the CG passes over the end of the launch ramp and ends when the lifeboat no longer has contact with the ramp. The forward position of the CG, therefore, creates the largest pitch angle.

5.2.2 Change in Ramp Angle – Series B

The angle of the launch ramp can often be different on each offshore installation, depending on the manufacturer design. The angle could also be changed due to damage to the installation. In the simulations, series B compares three different launch ramp angles (L25, L35, and L45) with the lifeboat in normal conditions.

Figure 5.9 Effect of change in ramp angle on trajectory of the lifeboat It can be seen that with a decrease in ramp angle, the distance traveled by the lifeboat away from the installation increases, however, the time before water entry is increased. The same concept is used for an increase in ramp angle. The boat has a larger Z velocity at the beginning of the freefall phase, therefore the boat makes contact with the water surface faster, and does not travel as far in the X direction.

Figure 5.10 Effect of change in ramp angle on pitch angle of the lifeboat Decreasing the speed at which the lifeboat leaves the launch ramp, increases the change in pitch experienced by the lifeboat during the freefall phase. This result is caused by the reduction in ramp angle.

5.2.3 Change in Ramp Offset – Series C

Depending on the manufacturer of the launch system, installations may have different ramp offsets. Series C simulates this change in initial condition. During these simulations, the lifeboat is held in all normal conditions, and the freefall height is maintained at 25m.

Figure 5.11 Effect of change in ramp offset on trajectory of the lifeboat With increase in ramp offset, the velocity experienced by the lifeboat at the end of the launch ramp increases. This allows the boat to project further away from the installation. The opposite occurs with a decrease in ramp offset.

Figure 5.12 Effect of change in ramp offset on pitch angle of the lifeboat By decreasing the offset of the launch ramp, it can be seen in Figure 5.12 that the pitch angle of the lifeboat increases more rapidly compared to the other ramp offsets. Again, this was caused by the fact that the lifeboat left the launch ramp at a slower speed.

(30)

6.0 CONCLUSIONS

After carefully studying the graphical data, it can be clearly seen that the simulated model follows the appropriate projectile motion that was predicted. This can be observed from the graphs in section 5.1 above.

During the simulations, it was observed that distance the lifeboat traveled away from the installation, and the pitch angle that the boat experience after leaving the launch ramp can be credited to the speed of the lifeboat at the end of the ramp phase.

It was seen that with a greater X velocity, the greater the distance the boat traveled away from the installation. This was a factor of a smaller ramp angle, longer ramp offset, and a centre of gravity closer to the stern.

It was also observed that the pitch angle was increased when there was a smaller Z velocity component at the end of the ramp phase. This rapid change in pitch was attributed to a larger X velocity component, credited to a smaller ramp angle, longer ramp offset, and a centre of gravity closer to the stern.

Greater launch distance produces a larger increase in pitch angle. For a successful launch to occur, there must be a happy median created between these two variables.

Since the data of the Phase 3 freefall lifeboat is currently being calibrated and analyzed, there is no data available to do a comparison of the physical model testing and the simulated tests.

This procedure can be further developed in the future to predict the behaviour of new designs of freefall lifeboats, and can be used to aid in physical model testing to generated additional data.
