Thanks Ralph!
FYI: Loss of process containment of Chlorine has been tested over the last couple of decades; see

Note: The effect of auto refrigeration might have been understated in the article; see also https://youtu.be/1A41PEGUXYg.
The term "short time" in the sentence: "Because the boiling point of chlorine is low (the boiling point is =E2=88'34.6 =B0C), the liquid chlorine will evaporate and vaporize in a short time and spread in the atmosphere in the form of chlorine gas" (Page E) is really an assumption.
Auto-refrigeration of pool or vessel content will slow down evaporation and, potentially, influence simulation results.
Best Regards,
Jan Windhorst
