Abstract:
Objective:To design a shipboard personnel decontamination system for a certain type of integrated rescue ship, which can be used to decontaminate the wounded in nuclear emergency rescue at sea.Methods:To decontaminate as many people as a shipboard decontamination system could in a limited space, we redesigned the layout of cabins and the decontamination process of the system. We broke down the system into different functions, estimated the time consumed by each function, and used the FlexSim to model and simulate the system.Results:The simulation system was set to run as fast as a common deep submersible lifeboat did in the case of a rescue. The utilization rate of most functioning objects remained between 48.6% and 82.9%. The average utilization rate of the skin drying positions and the dressing positions was less than 40%. However, it was acceptable considering multiplicity was required to keep at least one object operational.Conclusions:The decontamination system presented in this study has a scientific layout and a clear decontamination process. It can meet most of the needs of decontamination in nuclear emergency rescue at sea.
