In this study the explosion characteristics of terephtalic acid dust(PTA) was investigated with the Hartmann type apparatus. The minimum ignition energy, minimum explosible concentration, flame propagation velocity, explosion pressure, explosion pressure rise rate and the effect of inert dust(talcum) on explosion characteristics were measured. Flame velocity was 50m/s at 700g/m$^3$ concentration, and the explosion pressure and explosion pressure rise rate were most likely with that of gas explosion. It was found that an inert dust acts as a heat sinker and it disturbs the combustion of flammable dust, as a result, explosion pressure and explosion pressure rise rate were decreased and minimum explosion concentration was increased with increasing the fraction of talcum dust in PTA.

수소는 온실가스 배출을 저감하기 위한 미래 에너지로 고려되고 있지만, 폭발위험에 대한 문제점을 지니고 있다. 따라서 수소가 미래 에너지로 사용되기 위해서는 폭발위험에 대한 연구가 충분히 이루어져야 한다. 폭발위험은 폭발충격에 대한 이해 즉, 폭발과정에서 압력 상승속도에 대한 분석과 밀접한 관계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 폭발에 영향을 미치는 변수, 즉 연소 전후의 비열비, 화학평형상태에서 최대폭발압력, 그리고 연소속도, 이들 변수가 압력 상승속도에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 화학평형상태에서 최대폭발압력과 연소속도는 압력 상승곡선에 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었고, 미연소 가스의 비열비는 초기압력 상승속도보다 최종압력 상승속도에 더욱 영향을 미치고, 연소가스의 비열비는 반대로 초기압력 상승속도에 더욱 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 알 수 있었다. 연소속도는 실험 데이터로부터 구하였으며 밀폐공간에서 수소가스 폭발에서는 폭연에서 폭굉으로 전이가 일어나기에는 연소속도가 매우 느림을 알 수 있었다.

The explosion characteristics of nonhomogeneous LPG-Air mixtures was measured in a cylindrical vessel and a pipe. The maximum explosion pressure, the maximum rate of explosion pressure rise, and the flame propagation velocity were measured and compared with that of homogeneous explosion by changing the effective factors on the explosion of nonhomogeneous mixtures such as pressure difference, effusion time and delay time. Explosion was occured even in the lower concentration than the lean flammability limit of mixture. The maximum explosion pressure was increased with increase of LPG concentration, however, the maximum explosion pressure rise was not in the nonhomogeneous explosion. An d the flame propagation velocity was decreased with nonhomogeneity, however, the maximum explosion pressure was always above 0.7kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

Explosive characteristics of the city gas were determined by using the gas explosion apparatues. The explosive range is determined between lower explosive limit of 5.0% and upper explosive limit of 15.3% at atmosphere and even though the oxygen concentration is decreased, lower explosive limit is not changed, but upper explosive limit is rapidly decreased. The minimum oxygen for combustion is determined 10%. The maximum explosion pressure is determined 5.72$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the maximum rate of explosion pressure rise is oxygen concentration of 12% to determined 160.12$\textrm{cm}^2{\cdot}$sec.

It was discussed about explosion danger of hydrogen gas experimentally that could be happen during the handling and using. Hydrogen concentration was varied from 10 to 60 vol% for get the explosion characteristics of hydrogen and 5 kinds of cylindrical vessel were used to find the explosion characteristics of hydrogen according to the vessel volume. Initial pressure of hydrogen-air mixture was varied from 0.6 to 2 kg/cm2. Based on the experiment, explosion pressure was most high near the 30vol% of hydrogen and explosion pressure was increased slightly according to the increase of vessel volume but explosion pressure rise rate was decreased. Explosion pressure was increased linearly proportional to the initial pressure of gas mixture.

A study for the dangerous properties measurment of dust explosion was attended by the various dust concentration on Anthraquinone, Sodiumbenzoic acid, Corn starch, soy sauce powder, and cheese powder. As the result, maximum explosion pressure, the maximum rate of pressure rise, autoigntion temperature, and the water content of dust on lower limit explosion concentration was obtained as follows 1. The lower limit explosion concentration on soy sauce powder with the humidity of 65 to 90% increased by increasing the con tent of moisture, and the effect of dry air and moisture air decreased better in make of dry air. 2. The effect of a various dust concentration on autoigntion temperatures is investigated, If the vessel of dust explosion is small size and the easiness of autoignition was controled by air within the vessel, because it was better decreased air with increasing of dust concentration 3. The maximum explosion pressures of Anthraguinone, sodiumbenzoic acid, com starch, soy sauce powder, and cheese powder were 1.0g/$\ell$, 1.0g/$\ell$, 1.5g/$\ell$, 1.5g/$\ell$, and 1.5g/$\ell$, respectively, and the maximum rate of pressure rise were 0.5g/$\ell$, 0.5g/$\ell$, 1.0g/$\ell$, 1.0g/$\ell$, and 1.0g/$\ell$, respectively.

In process installations, chemicals operate at high temperature and high pressure. Propylene is used as a basic raw material for manufacturing synthetic materials in the petrochemical industry; However, it is a flammable substance and explosive in the gaseous state. Thus, caution is needed when handling propylene. To prevent explosions, an inert gas, carbon dioxide, was used and the changes in the extent of explosion due to changes in pressure and oxygen concentration at 25 ℃, 100 ℃, and 200 ℃ were measured. At constant temperature, the increase in explosive pressure and the rates of the explosive pressure were observed to rise as the pressure was augmented. Moreover, as the oxygen concentration decreased, the maximum explosive pressure decreased. At 25 ℃ and oxygen concentration of 21%, as the pressure increased from 1.0 barg to 2.5 bar, the gas deflagration index (K_g) increased significantly from 4.71 barg·m/s to 18.83 barg·m/s.

카본블랙 제조공정에서 발생되는 부생가스의 폭발한계와 폭발특성을 연구하였다. 부생 가스의 75% 가량은 수분과 질소였으며 가연성 성분으로는 수소를 비롯한 메탄, 아세틸렌, 일산화탄소 등을 포함하고 있어 연료로 활용하고 있다. 부생 가스중의 가연성 가스 성분들에 의해 공정상에 폭발 및 연소의 위험이 있다. 실험결과 얻어진 폭발한계범위는 17.1%에서 70.7%였으며 르샤틀리에 법칙을 이용하여 예측한 값과는 상당한 차이가 있었다. 또한 폭발특성 실험 결과 폭발압력은 최대 $5.4kg/cm^2$이었고 평균 폭발압력 상승속도는 $39.2kg/cm^2/s$였다. 이러한 결과들은 부생 가스의 취급 및 이용에 따른 폭발이나 화재 사고시 공정과 시설 등에 치명적인 손상을 입힐 수 있으므로 가스폭발 방지 및 방호조치가 필요하다.

가로, 세로, 높이가 각각 100cm, 60cm, 45cm로 내용적이 $270\ell$인 폭발 용기를 이용하여 불균일 농도 상태의 LPG-공기 혼합가스의 폭발특성을 측정하였다. 폭발은 vented-explosion과 closed explosion의 조건에서 실시하였다. 실험의 변수로는 점화원의 위치, 노즐직경 및 유속으로, 시료가스를 주입하는 노즐의 직경과 유속을 변화시키면서 용기 내에서의 불균일 혼합정도를 조절하였다. 폭발압력은 strain형 압력센사를 사용하여 측정하였고 폭발화염의 거동은 비디오카메라로 측정하여 분석하였다. 실험결과 유속과 가스 주입 시간이 용기 내 가스 혼합에 중요한 요소임을 알 수 있었으며, 불균일 정도가 심화될 수록 폭발압력과 압력상승속도가 감소하였으나 용기 내 폭발화염의 체류시간은 크게 증가하였으며 이로 인하여 가스 폭발 후 화재로의 전이 위험성이 증가함을 알 수 있었다.
