Study on Explosion in Spherical Vessel Vented into Dump Vessel

Article Preview

Abstract:

The gas explosion in spherical vessel vented into a dump vessel (“dump vessel vented”) was studied by experimental and numerical simulation. The CFD model used provided a reasonable agreement with the experimental results. The maximum pressure of the explosion vessel is more than the direct venting. But when ratio of dump vessel volume (vd) to explosion vessel volume (ve) is more than or equal to 5, the maximum pressure in the explosion vessel approximately equal to the maximum pressure of simple vented.
