Quantitative Assessment on Blast Effects of the Boiler BLEVE

Abstract:

The boiler BLEVE is accompanied by highly destructive blast waves and flying fragments, whose damaging effect is reflected in casualties and property losses. Thus, the quantitative assessment of a boiler BLEVE consequence, especially for the blast effects, is fairly helpful to prepare contingency plans and review the overall layout and design. The paper presents the mechanism of the boiler BLEVE blast, the consequences, and the methodology to realize the reasonable evaluation, which can give a quantity of guidance to classify and take some safety countermeasures to supervise the boilers.
