Experimental study on the morphology and thermal radiation of jet fire in sub high-pressure natural gas pipelines
When a gas pipeline leaks and comes into contact with an external fire source,it may lead to the formation of jet fire,which poses a huge risk to nearby workers and equipment.There-fore,it is particularly crucial to conduct in-depth research on the combustion behavior of jet flames in gas pipelines.Six types of pore sizes were selected,including 0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5,3.0 mm,with pressures of 0.5,0.8,1.0,1.2,1.5 MPa,respec-tively,to conduct jet fire experiments on gas pipelines under dif-ferent operating conditions.The results show that when natural gas combustion reaches stability,the flame height and thermal ra-diation gradually increase with the increase of injection pressure and nozzle diameter;At a 3 mm aperture,the flame reaches a maximum length of 4.32 m,and the maximum thermal radiation reaches 552 W/m2 at a horizontal position of 1m from the leakage hole;When the aperture is 1.5 mm and the pressure is 1.2 MPa,the flame begins to rise.As the pressure and aperture increase,the rise phenomenon becomes more pronounced.When the leak-age aperture is 3 mm and the pressure is 1.5 MPa,the maximum lift is 0.4 m.The experimental values provide guidance for dealing with the situation of jet fire caused by natural gas pipeline leakage.
