Abstract
The influence of the over-pressure caused by Explosion in gas station was calculated by using the Hopkinson's scaling law and injury effect by accident to buildings and human bodies was estimated by applying the probit model. As a result, the injury estimation was conducted by using the probit model for leakage 10% of 20ton storage tank. The separate distances from LPG station for building(damage) and human(lung hemorrhage to death) are 260 and 30 meters, respectively.
