The boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion (BLEVE) has existed for a long time and for most of this time it has been cloaked in mystery. Several theories have been put forward to explain this very energetic event but none have been proven. This paper describes a series of tests that have recently

iterative numerical method has been suggested for calculating multicomponent vapourliquid equilibria from boiling temperature data involving minimization of temperature reciprocal residuals. For representation of the temperature as an implicit function of the liquid composition, the set of equations
## Abstract A boiling‐point apparatus is described and an account is given of its use for determining the boiling‐points at reduced pressures of‐ various liquids of low vapour pressure. The theoretical relationship between temperature and vapour pressure is discussed and the vapour pressures of var
## Abstract High‐boiling coal liquids from the solvent‐refined coal‐I and ‐II (SRC‐I, ‐II) processes, respectively, were fractionally distilled. In the case of SRC‐I process solvent (PS), 50°F distillation cuts were obtained between 550 and 850°F, while for the SRC‐II material, the 50°F cuts were o
