Frequent occurrence of indoor natural gas explosion accidents
seriously
threatens the safety of people and property. To determine the law
of indoor natural gas leakage and explosion hazards, based on experiment
and simulation, the nature of natural gas explosion, the distribution
law of natural gas volume fraction, flame propagation, temperature,
and shock wave overpressure were studied. The results show that the
flame structure can be divided into three zones, i.e., preheat zone,
reaction zone, and product zone. OH + CO ⇔ H + CO
2
is the main exothermic reaction in the combustion process. The overall
distribution law of natural gas volume fraction shows that the higher
the position, the greater the volume fraction, and the closer the
distance to the leak source at the same height, the greater the volume
fraction, and the natural gas volume fraction of the hose falling
off is the largest under different leakage conditions. The difference
in the wrapping structure of the kitchen package has a significant
impact on the diffusion distribution of natural gas. The flame development
goes through five stages of ignition, slow burning, detonation, slow
burning, and extinguishing. The indoor temperature reaches about 1400
°C. Although the simulated value of shock wave overpressure is
larger than the experimental value, the relationship between overpressure
and distance is expressed by

accident rescue. The research can provide certain technical support
for natural gas accident rescue and can also be used for accident
investigation to form the determination procedure and method of leakage
location and leakage amount.
