Pressurisation of full-containment pressure vessels in fire is known to be driven by thermal stratification. The predominant mode of heat transfer to the contents (convection from the shell to the liquid phase) results in formation of „hot“ boundary layers. Sub-cooled boiling may also be present. The warm layer rises to the surface through buoyancy and bubble flow, increasing the surface of the liquid above that of the bulk temperature, and hence driving a pressure rise.
For reliable prediction of the complex effects governing vessel pressurization a three-dimensional numerical model is required. Work is being undertaken on such a model by other institutions in cooperation with this project.
A new tank design for Hazmat
(2016)
Initial studies have shown pre-deformed honeycomb structure
pressure vessels to have comparable burst pressure to straight steel vessels.
It was shown that honeycomp structured tanks have a higher energy absorption than straight steel tanks.
Future studies will investigate optimization of the deformed plate, to determine if increased payloads or a reduced wall thickness can be achieved.
The outputs from a simplified mathematical designed to simulate the liquid cargo-vehicle interaction during an emergency braking maneuver, have been compared with full scale data regarding the sloshing pressure on one of the vehicle chambers. While the specific dimensions and fill level of the fluid within the chamber in the full scale testing, have been considered for the simulation model, the vehicle has been simplified to a straight truck instead of an articulated truck. Nevertheless, the pressure within the chamber is realistically modelled, concerning the maximum and minimum pressures attained, with differences lower than 10% between the simulation and the experimental data. Consequently, these results suggest that the articulation pertaining to the articulated vehicle, does not affect in a significant manner the maximum and minimum values of the pressure within the chamber. A nonlinear model for the suspension, however, could improve the model performance. On the other hand, simulation results suggest that the effect of sloshing could cause a loss of braking efficiency on the order of 7%, when such performance is measured in terms of the stopping time.
Simplified cargo-vehicle interaction: linear pendulum, rigid multibody linear dynamics, straight, instead of articulated vehicle.
Realistic results about the pressure developed on the sensor, with differences lower than 10% between the simulation and the experimental data.
Sloshing could affect the braking efficiency in 7%, approximately, corresponds with other sources.
The arrangement of the measuring sensors allowed the
capture of air flow induced temperatures and material
temperatures on various points of the cylinder body. Four
significant temperature levels could be observed: Inside the cylinder (far from the wall, close to the wall), inside the aluminium liner and outer surface. Figure 5 shows the temperature distribution after a regular filling process with a filling time of ten minutes. The temperature sensors T1 - T9 are marked with different colors. The corresponding measurement points are shown in Figure 4. Due to the high thermal conductivity of the aluminum liner the induced temperature peaks are quickly derived. A flow-induced exceeding of the maximum approval temperature is not expected. Regarding the safety assessement the results show that the pressure and temperature profilesmustbe taken into account.
Gefahrguttanks werden primär gegen betriebliche Belastungen dimensioniert. Unfallbelastungen spielen hierbei keine Rolle. In der Vergangenheit gab es immer wieder einige katastrophale Unfälle, die nicht nur materielle Schäden zur Folge hatten sondern bei denen auch Todesopfer zu beklagen waren. Zur Ermittlung möglicher Sicherheitsreserven werden Untersuchungen zum Abtrag auslegungsüberschreitender Belastungen durchgeführt. Mit dem Grenzlasttragverfahren steht ein leistungsfähiges Analysewerkzeug zur Verfügung, mit dem nichtlineare Beanspruchungsszenarien bewertet werden können. Der Vergleich der numerischen mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen zeigt dies eindeutig.
