초록

The destruction by accident is affected by the blast of explosion. However, there are few of research on the external effect of vented gas explosions. Therefore it is necessary to study the effect of vented explosion. This study aims to find the characteristics of gas explosion, and the effect of vented gas explosion. Using an explosion chamber, we obtained a LPG explosion characteristics according to the vent size and concentration. The result of experiment showed that the explosion pressure effect to external space was much stronger than inner space during the course of a gas explosion. And the external pressure become higher in explosion pressure as the vent diameter become smaller.
