Evaluating EML Modeling Tools for Insurance Purposes: A Case Study

Table 3

The table shows four key parameters for cloud weight modelling in EFFECTS. Hole rounding represents the edges of the hole within TPDIS. 𝑍₀ is surface roughness, given in accordance to Hanna [18] which gives the range 0.9–1.3 for a typical refinery. Pasquill Stability F means extremely stable weather. Wind speed is self-explanatory.

Parameter	Value	Unit
Hole Rounding	0.62	—
𝑍0	1	M
Pasquill Stability Class	F	—
Wind Speed	1.5	m/s
