Abstract:The effects of obstacles on methane explosion inside a narrow space and its suppression by ultra-fine water mist are investigated experimentally. Two PCB pressure transducers and two E12-1-C-U fast response thermocouples are used to obtain the explosion pressure and temperature, respectively. A Fastcam Ultima APX high speed video camera is used to visualize the process of methane explosion with the influence of obstacles and ultra-fine water mist. The results show that the explosion would be strengthened by th… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
