Analysisof Riskof Self-Ignition Grain Products During Storage

Abstract:

The paper analyzes the risk of spontaneous combustion of grain products during storage. It has been established that there is an annual increase in the number of fires at grain elevators. The article presents a method for early detection of a fire hazardous state of a grain embankment, in which, by means of preliminary laboratory modeling, the construction of experimental dependences of the temperature of a grain embankment on time is provided. It is shown that due to this, the accuracy of predicting the critical characteristics of a grain embankment increases. It has been experimentally proved that preliminary laboratory identification of the parameters of the law of temperature change and the construction of a diagram of the dependence of the temperature of a grain embankment on time allows in production conditions to determine in advance the time to reach a risky temperature value.
