Abstract
Due to rapid rise of consuming rate for natural gas, installation and operation of high pressure natural gas pipeline is inevitable for high rate of gas transportation. Accordingly incidents on the underground high pressure natural gas pipeline come from various reasons will lead to massive release of natural gas and gas dispersion in the air. Further, fire and explosion from ignition of released gas may cause large damage. This study is for release rate, dispersion and flash fire of natural gas to establish a safety management system, setting emergency plan and safety distance.
