Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation is used to predict transient and time-averaged glame temperatures and species concentrations of an n-hexane pool flame. Employing a combination of an assumed probability density function approach with laminar flamelets using detailed kinetic data and large-eddy simulation with Smagorinsky submodel is shown to be a promising way in modeling pool and tank fires. The measured species concentration and flame temperature profiles from gas chromatography, thermocouple measurements and holographic interferometry are used to validate the submodels for CFD simulation of pool flames.
Massenabbrandraten organischer Peroxide unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der thermischen Stabilität
(2013)
Die Flüssigkeitstemperatur Temperatur in der flüssigen Phase unmittelbar im Grenzbereich zur Gasphase während eines Abbrandes organischer Peroxide überschreitet die Onset-Temperatur der beginnenden exothermen Zersetzungsreaktion des Peroxids, so dass diese zu berücksichtigen ist. Für die Peroxide Di-tert-butyl-Peroxid (DTBP) und tert-butyl-peroxybenzoat (TBPB) muss daher bei der Berechnung des Wärmerückstromes ein zusätzlicher Term für die Zersetzung in der Flüssigkeit additiv ergänzt werden. Der Umsatz der Zersetzungsreaktion wird unter den Bedingungen eines CSTR modelliert und erfolgt auf Basis einer Reaktionskinetik 1. Ordnung. Es kann gezeigt werden, dass der Wärmestrom in einem DTBP-Poolfeuer ≈ 40 % und einem TBPB-Poolfeuer ≈ 100 % des Wärmerückstromes durch Wärmestrahlung entspricht. Durch Q-Punkt-d können die vergleichsweise hohen Massenabbrandraten und die relative Unabhängigkeit der Massenabbrandraten vom Pooldurchmesser erklärt werden. Über eine Energiebilanz wird ein Modell basierend auf physikalischen Parametern entwickelt, das die Massenabbrandraten großer Poolfeuer, in sehr guter Übereinstimmung mit den experimentellen Ergebnissen, vorhersagt.
Mechanical drop test scenarios for Type B (U) packages according to the IAEA regulations have to be carried out onto the so-called “unyielding target” (usually with cask impact limiters) and onto the puncture bar respectively. They are predefined and do not require any further investigation of scenarios that really could happen on transportation routes. Cask accident scenarios in the framework of approval procedures for interim storage sites are derived from a detailed analysis of the handling procedures necessary from arrival of cask at the site to its storing position.
In that case, casks are usually handled without impact limiters. Dependent on possible drop heights, drop positions and floor properties, conservative cask accident scenarios are derived for further safety proofs. According to the mechanical assessment concept of the considered approval procedure numerical calculations have to be provided by the applicant to demonstrate mechanical cask safety. Stresses and strains in the cask body as well as in the lid System have to be identified and assessed. Using the example of a 3-mvertical-drop of a transport and storage cask for spent fuel elements onto the floor construction made of damping concrete covered by screed, BAM developed a finite element model. The finite element code ABAQUS/Explicit™ was used. Results of experimental investigations are not available. Therefore parameter studies are necessary to identify the sensitivity of the finite element model to significant Parameters and to verify the finite element models according to the requirements of the Guidelines for the Numerical Safety Analyses for the Approval of Transport and Storage Casks for Radioactive Materials (BAM GGR-008). The paper describes the modeling of the material behavior and attachment of bottom side cask components. Questions concerning the modeling of a crack length limiting reinforcement in the screed layer are discussed. The influence of the mesh density of the screed layer and its strength is considered as well. Finally, the developed finite element model can be used for a numerical safety assessment. It can help to understand the complex mechanisms of the interaction between the cask components and floor construction.
Organic peroxides are energetic substances liable to decompose due to exothermic reactions when exposed to uncontrolled temperature, contamination, confinement and quantity. Their safe storage and transportation are the prime concern and chemical industries and regulating authorities. Their accidental release may and most often lead to shape of a pool. In present study, safety distances from such large pool fires (diameter d = 3.4 m) of organic peroxides are numerically predicted by solving the reactive, 3-D time dependent Navier-Stokes equations with reliable assumptions. The present model is validated against the data on buoyant turbulent diffusion flames. The safety distances predicted by simulation assume three regions in a fully developed fire i.e. hot spot, luminous zone and a flame surface. The time averaged data of temperatures of these regions lead to better estimation of irradiances against the measured data. A developed sphere analogy method (for a special class of organic peroxides) for maximum surface emissive power prediction is also verified.
Die Bedeutung von Flüssigerdgas (LNG, liquefied natural gas) ist durch die Erschließung entfernt liegender Resourcen und den damit verbundenen Transportwegen sowie durch die verbesserte Prozesstechnik bei der Verflüssigung (z.B. Mixed Fluid Cascade (MFC®) Verflüssigungsprozess) weltweit gestiegen. In den letzten Jahren sind zahlreiche neue Großanlagen wie die in Kollsnes, Hammerfest (beide Norwegen 2003, 2007), Kwinana (Australien 2008) und Shan Shan (China,
2004) mit Kapazitäten von bis 4.7 Mt/a entstanden. Das Gefährdungspotential von flüssigem Erdgas besteht neben dem niedrigen Siedepunkt Tb = −161 °C im Zündbereich zwischen 4.4 - 17 Vol.% sowie im großen Expansionsverhältnis. Bei einer störungsbedingten Freisetzung von LNG kann es somit zu Poolfeuer kommen, wodurch mit großem Schaden an benachbarten verfahrenstechnischen Anlagen und vor allem an Personen zu rechnen ist.
The industrial fire accidents e.g. Buncefield (2005) and Jaipur (2009) have come up with several issues concerning safe storage and transportation of flammable liquids. The pre and post fire consequences are therefore important to be analyzed prior to the handling of flammable fuels. Pool or/and tank fire is the most often seen scenario after the leak/spill of liquid fuel. An overview of the typical scenarios from large hydrocarbon and organic peroxide pool fires and their respective safety distances for the people and the infrastructure are the important subjects of this paper.
