초록

가스 폭발의 위험성의 증대와 함께 가스 폭발의 규모와 영향을 예측하는데 필요한 폭발 인자들을 간접적으로 추정하는 방법들이 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 주로 사용되고 있는 TNT 등가량 산정법, TNO 다중에너지 방법, BST 방법의 특성과 폭발 인자를 결정하는 과정을 비교하였다. TNT 등가량 산정법의 경우, 증기운 폭발의 형태와 폭발 물질 등 다양한 조건에 따라 적합한 efficiency factor를 선택하는 것이 필요하였다. TNO 다중에너지 방법은 클래스 번호를 결정하기 위한 객관적 기준이 부족하였으며 음의 과압을 추정하지는 못하였다. 기 보고된 인자값에 오기재로 보이는 부분을 확인하였으며 수정된 인자값을 제시하였다. BST 방법은 음의 과압을 포함한 보다 상세한 폭발 인자 추정이 가능하지만 사용하는 그래프가 가시적이지 않은 문제점이 있었다. 이를 보완하기 위해 그래프를 재작성하였으며 향후 그래프의 수식화를 통한 편리한 폭발 인자 추정이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

With the increase of risk of gas explosion, various methods for indirectly estimating the explosion paramaters, which are required for the prediction of gas explosion scale and impact. In this study, the characteristics of the most frequently used methods such as TNT equivalent method, TNO multi-energy method, and BST method and the processes for determining the parameters of the methods were compared. In the case of TNT equivalent method, an adequate selection of the efficiency factor for various conditions such as the type of vapor cloud explosion and explosion material is needed. There is no objective guidelines for the selection of class number in TNO multi-energy method and it is not possible to estimate negative overpressure. It was found that there were some mistakes in the reported parameter values and suggested corrected values. BST method provides more detailed guidelines for the estimation of the explosion parameters including negative overpressure, but the graphs used in this methods are not clear. In order to overcome the problem, the graphs were redrawn. A more convenient estimation of explosion parameters with the numerical expression of the redrawn graphs will be available in the future.
