FLARE Benchmark Study - Flooding Fundamentals

Ship reference: FLARE simplified geometries

 

Ship information:

- Box with tween deck for up and down flooding

- Part of a deck of a large cruise ship (scale 1:60)

Data provided by:

MARIN & NAPA

Funded by EU Horizon 2020 project FLARE (814753)

Definition data:

- Drawings

- Discharge coefficients (evaluated experimentally at MARIN)

Test cases:

3 different flooding cases with captive models (fixed floating position):

- Up flooding in a box with opening in the tween deck

- Down flooding in a box with opening in the tween deck

- Progressive flooding on the deck arrangement of a large cruise ship

Experimental data:

- Floodwater levels at several locations

Enclosed documents:

- Conference paper describing the benchmark cases and results from the FLARE project

- Instructions document

- Drawings of compartments, openings, and water level sensor locations

- Measurement data (csv)

- Videos
