ISO 11439 I-Cylinder Bonfire Test and Safety Evaluation

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper investigated the performance of ISO11439 standard I-Cylinder under fire condition via both numerical simulation and experimental methods, and proved the similarity between the two results. The paper also analyzed the material and the metallurgical structure of the invalid tested I-cylinder, indicating that fire would not lead to the material degradation and failure. The overall tests and comparisons led to the conclusion that I-cylinder explosion under fire condition is most likely caused by the material flaws or other safety defects of the cylinder, and not the fire. The cylinder manufacturing be suggested to regulate more strictly and properly.
