Brandnew fire test facilities at 'BAM test site technical safety'

  • Fire testing is an essential part of the hypothetical, cumulative mechanical and thermal accident test conditions that shall guarantee package safety in severe accidents. Not only for radioactive material transport packages but also for other containments of dangerous goods international standards require specific thermal load specifications. Following the guideline 'Safety in tech-nology and chemistry' BAM as a scientific and technical German federal government institute operates a 12 km² large open air test facility for experimental investigations of dangerous goods and their containments. On an area besides the well-known 200-ton drop test facility we put into operation new fire test facilities. This facility area provides two fire test stands that are utilized with liquid Propane as fuel from a central earth-covered 60 m³ LPG storage tank. From that stor-age the Propane is pumped via pipelines to the test stands where the gas is released from nozzles, and ignited by ignitionFire testing is an essential part of the hypothetical, cumulative mechanical and thermal accident test conditions that shall guarantee package safety in severe accidents.

On an area besides the well-known 200-ton drop test facility we put into operation new fire test facilities. This facility area provides two fire test stands that are utilized with liquid Propane as fuel from a central earth-covered 60 m³ LPG storage tank. From that stor-age the Propane is pumped via pipelines to the test stands where the gas is released from nozzles, and ignited by ignition burners. The fire exposed test facility areas are 12 m x 8 m. Fire test facil-ity B (with gas release nozzles below water-covered ground) is designed for fire testing of con-tainers that may burst during the test. Fire test facility A (with ring burner systems) is designed for heavy test objects up to 200 tons, e.g. for full-scale spent fuel casks. The paper will present a detailed description of the facility, insight into first test performances, and results of calorimeter fire tests, using containers of various sizes, to verify the absorbed heat fluxes, demonstrating that regulatory fire test conditions are met, and that the Propane fire can be compared with a kerosene or heating oil pool fire.zeige mehrzeige weniger
