✦ Synopsis


Presents the results of large-scale experiments on the thermal effect from deflagrations and detonations in rich fuel-air heterogeneous mixtures. Gasoline, kerosine and diesel fuel were used. The fuel mass in the tests varied from 0.1 to 100 tonnes. The relationships for the maximum fireball radius. heat effect duration and total emitted energy vs the fuel mass were determined for this kind of process. Direct measurements of the heat flux and integral heat flux were carried out. Comparison with published data for other fuel types is made. The presented results may be used for accident analyses in industry and transport. 97101455
