Influence study on inhibitory effect of porous materials on LPG explosion in vent pipe
In order to investigate the influence of porous materials on the explosion propagation characteristics of LPG in vent pipes,experiments were conducted on a self-built gas explosion test platform.The inhibitory effect of silicon carbide materials with different thicknesses and porosities on the flame propagation characteristics and explosion overpressure in the vent pipe was investigated.The results show that porous materials can effectively prevent the propagation of LPG explosion flame.With the increase of porosity and thickness,the propagation distance,propagation speed and intensity of LPG flame are reduced,and the porosity has a greater effect on the fire resistance than the thickness.The installation of porous materials also reduces the maximum explosion overpressure.When LPG is not ignited behind the installation location,increasing the porosity and thickness of porous materials,the maximum explosion overpressure in front of the material(PT1,PT2)increases,and that behind the material(PT3)is close to the static film-breaking pressure.The firestopping effect of material porosity and thickness shows that increasing the porosity of the material for firestopping should be prioritized when the strength of the material is up to standard in engineering applications.
