摘要:

无人机已被证明是适用于甲烷点源排放速率估算的一种新颖且有效的观测平台，然而对其估算的准确度与不确定度尚缺乏有效分析与量化。利用包含已知排放速率被动示踪物的大涡模拟，再现了1种强湍流混合环境下的甲烷羽流并对羽流进行了连续多次模拟飞行观测实验，通过逆高斯方法（IG）和质量平衡方法（MB）对排放速率进行了估算并量化了其准确度与不确定度，最后对不同的飞行时间安排及差异化的空间飞行策略进行了探究以提升估算效果。结果表明，对于研究所涉及的大气混合条件，通过IG和MB方法对多次模拟飞行估算的排放均值可达到既定排放值的95.3%和86.1%，不确定度为56.6%和56.9%；通过单架无人机多次重复飞行采样进行估算可显著降低不确定度，5次重复飞行可降至＜30%；2架无人机在不同高度的同步飞行可使MB方法估算的不确定度降至35.2%～51.9%，IG方法则对该措施不敏感。研究仅考虑甲烷的传输扩散过程，结果也适用于其他被动示踪物的点源排放估算。

Abstract:

Unmanned aerial vehicles(UAV) have been shown to be a novel and effective observation platform for the estimation of methane point source emission rates， however， quantitative analysis of the accuracy and the uncertainty of UAV estimates is still lacking. In this study， we have simulated a passive methane plume released from a point source at a constant emission rate in a strongly turbulent mixing environment using large eddy simulation. Furthermore， we have performed multiple consecutive flight observation experiments based on the simulated plume， and estimated the emission rates using both inverse Gaussian(IG) and mass balance(MB) methods. The accuracy and the uncertainty of the estimates have been assessed. Moreover， we have investigated different flight schedules and patterns to improve the estimation performance. The results show that the mean values of the emissions estimated from multiple simulated flights by both IG and MB methods can reach 95% and 86% of the actual emissions， with uncertainties of 56.6% and 56.9% respectively; the uncertainty can be significantly reduced by repeated flights using a single UAV， e.g.， to less than 30% with five flights; Simultaneous flights using two UAVs at different altitudes reduce the uncertainty of the MB method estimate to 35.2%～51.9%， while the IG method is insensitive to this measure. As this study considers the transport and dispersion of methane only， the results are applicable to the estimates of emission rates of other point sources of passive pollutants.
