4.4. Explosion Modeling
CFD explosion modeling is focused on the understanding of possible consequences from large-scale industrial accidental events such as VCE, BLEVE, DDT, and dust explosion. Besides data regarding overpressures and impulse generated from these types of explosion, which is also the main hazards of explosion in context of process safety, CFD simulation results provide extensive information regarding the development of flammable clouds, the movement of flame and pressure waves, and the interaction between the pressure wave and the obstacles. These data are critical for the design, layout, control, and mitigation of explosion hazards. Even though the four phenomena described in this section are all related to explosion and ...
