Explosion limit and flash point are the major combustion properties used to determine the fire and explosion hazards of the flammable substances. In this study, in order to predict upper explosion limits(UEL), the upper flash point of n-alcohols were measured under the VLE(vapor-liquid equilibrium) state by using Setaflash closed cup tester(ASTM D3278). The UELs calculated by Antoine equation using the experimental upper flash point are usually lower than the several reported UELs. From the given results, using the proposed experimental and predicted method, it is possible to research the upper explosion limits of the other flammable substances.

Explosion limit and flash point are the major combustion properties used to determine the fire and explosion hazards of the flammable substances. In this study, in order to predict upper explosion limits(UELs), the upper flash point of n-alkanes and aromatic compounds were measured under the VLE(vapor-liquid equilibrium) state by using Setaflash closed cup tester(ASTM D3278). The UELs calculated by Antoine equation and chemical stoichiometric coefficient tusing the experimental upper flash point were compared with the several reported UELs. From the given results, using the proposed experimental and predicted method, it is possible to research the upper explosion limits of the other flammable substances.

3-헥사논의 안전한 취급을 위해, 폭발한계는 문헌을 통해 고찰하였고, 인화점과 발화지연시간에 의한 발화온도를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 밀페식 장치에 의한 3-헥사논(에틸프로필케톤)의 하부인화점은 $18^{\circ}C$로 측정되었으며, 개방식에서는 $27^{\circ}C{\sim}32^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다. ASTM E659 장치를 사용하여 자연발화온도와 발화지연시간을 측정하였고, 3-헥사논의 최소자연발화온도는 $425^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다. 측정된 인화점에 의한 폭발하한계는 1.21 Vol%로 계산되었다.

For the safe handling of n-pentadecane, the lower flash points and the upper flash point, fire point, AITs(auto-ignition temperatures) by ignition delay time were experimented. Also lower and upper explosion limits by using measured the lower and upper flash points for n-pentadecane were calculated. The lower flash points of n-pentadecane by using closed-cup tester were measured $118^{\circ}C$ and $122^{\circ}C$. The lower flash points and fire point of n-pentadecane by using open cup tester were measured $126^{\circ}C$ and $127^{\circ}C$, respectively. This study measured relationship between the AITs and the ignition delay times by using ASTM E659 apparatus for n-pentadecane. The experimental AIT of n-pentadecane was $195^{\circ}C$. The calculated lower and upper explosion limit by using measured lower $118^{\circ}C$ and upper flash point $174^{\circ}C$ for n-pentadecane were 0.54 Vol.% and 6.40 Vol.%.

프로필렌은 석유화학제품의 제조 시 기초 유분으로 산업 공정에서 널리 사용되고 있으며, 새로운 물질을 제조하기 위하여 200 ℃ 이상의 온도에서 합성되고 있다. 그러나 프로필렌은 인화성 가스로써 화재 및 폭발의 위험성이 존재하므로, 이를 방지하기 위하여 불활성 가스 중 가격이 저렴하고 공기 중 가장 많이 존재하는 질소를 주입하여 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 프로필렌-질소-산소를 사용하여 온도 200 ℃에서 압력의 변화(0.10 MPa, 0.15 MPa, 0.20 MPa, 0.25 MPa)에 따른 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 산소농도가 21%일 때 압력이 0.10 MPa에서 0.25 MPa로 상승할수록 폭발 하한계는 2.2%에서 1.9%로감소하였으며, 폭발상한계는 14.8%에서 17.6%로증가하였다. 또한최소산소농도는 10.3%에서 10.0%로 감소하여 압력이 증가할수록 폭발 범위가 넓어져 위험성이 증가하였다. 폭발압력은 압력이 0.10 MPa에서 0.25 MPa로 상승할수록 1.84 MPa에서 6.04 MPa로 증가하였으며, 최대 폭발압력상승속도는 90 MPa/s에서 298 MPa/s로 크게 증가하였다. 고온 및 고압에서는 폭발의 위험성이 증가하므로 프로필렌을 사용하는 사업장의 폭발사고 예방을 위한 기초자료를 제공하고자 한다.

In the industrial site of 21st century, there are many and various powders of material, product and fuel of coal, chemical, detergent, paint, feed and more. Therefore, there always is a possible danger of dust explosion in each and every procedure and actually, there are increasing frequency of dust explosion as the use of dust and its amount increases in processes. Therefore, if we leave the current status like now, the unexpected massive dust explosion and its risk cannot be effectively prevented so there has to be effective application of understanding and development of explosion-prevention technology about dust explosion. Therefore, this research set the limit of research to systematically arrange the research results about dust explosion phenomenon and its prevention up to date and has its purpose to theoretically establish the prevention technology about dust explosion based on these theories.

Classify of explosion hazardous areas must be made at the site where flammable materials are used. This reason is that it is necessary to manage ignition sources in of explosion hazardous areas in order to reduce the risk of explosion. If such an explosion hazard area is widened, it becomes difficult to increase the number of ignition sources to be managed. The method using the virtual volume currently used is much wider than the result using CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics). Therefore, we tried to improve the current method to compare with the new method using leakage characteristics. The result is a realistic explosion hazard if the light gas is calibrated to the mass and the heavy gas is calibrated to the lower explosion limit. However, it is considered that the safety factors should be taken into account in the calculated correction formula because such a problem should be considered as a buffer for safety.
