Comparison of explosion models for detonation onset estimation in large-scale unconfined vapor clouds

Although industrial denotations in semi-open and congested geometries are often neglected by many practitioners during risk assessment, recent studies have shown that industrial detonations might be more common than previously believed. Therefore, from the explosion safety perspective, it becomes imperative to better assess industrial detonation hazards to improve robustness of explosion mitigation design, emergency response procedures, and building siting evaluation. Having that in mind, this study aims to review current empirical vapor cloud explosion models, understand their limitations, and assess their capability to indicate detonation onset for elongated vapor clouds. Six models were evaluated in total: TNO Multi-Energy, Baker-Strehlow-Tang (BST), Congestion Assessment Method (CAM), Quest Model for Estimation of Flame Speed (QMEFS), Primary Explosion Site (PES), and Confinement Specific Correlation (CSC). Model estimations were compared with large-scale test data available in the open literature. The CAM model demonstrated good performance in indicating deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) for test conditions experiencing detonation onset without any modification in the methodology. Some suggestions are provided to improve simulation results from PES, BST and QMEFS.

干侵入对"0310"暴雨形成过程的影响

通过位涡、相对湿度与相当位温关系的讨论并结合2003年10月10-12日河北深秋时节在冀中南部发生的特大暴雨,分析了倾斜涡度发展理论.发现此次暴雨过程中存在干侵入现象,且干侵入的发生、发展对暴雨过程具有重要影响;干侵入沿相当位温高值脊向对流层低层伸展,引起对流层低层气旋性涡度的发展,使降水强度加剧.干侵入是暴雨形成的一种重要机制.     

长江河口淡水资源利用与避咸蓄淡水库

开发利用长江口的淡水资源 ,首先要研究河口水质的污染程度以及咸潮入侵的时空变化规律。长江河口水质除边滩存在局部污染外 ,主槽水质良好。长江口南支、南港、北港盐水来源主要有北支倒灌和外海盐水直接入侵两种形式 ,盐水入侵具有周日、半月、季节和年际变化规律 ,由于北支倒灌咸水团的影响 ,低盐度值往往出现在大潮期和涨憩附近。通过修建边滩水库 ,达到控制引水时间、避咸蓄淡的目的。最长连续超标天数的推算是确定水库库容的关键问题 ,采用数理统计、二维数值模拟、ARMAX模型 +Markov模型等方法推算 ,几种方法相互印证 ,计算结果基本上符合实际情况。“避咸潮取水 ,蓄淡水保质” ,这是宝钢干部、科技人员总结出来的长江河口引水经验。长江口取水工程由取水系统、调蓄水库和输水系统等三大部分组成。长江口避咸蓄淡水库的成功经验 ,对沿海潮汐河口的淡水资源开发利用具有示范作用。     

分流制系统雨水管网混接旱天排放污染特征研究

分流制排水系统中,雨水管网混接污水在旱天直排河道,造成河道水质恶化.本文以上海市某混接分流制排水系统(3.74 km~2)为研究对象,通过开展雨水管网旱天排放水质监测(SS、COD、BOD_5、NH_3-N、TN等),以及雨水管网旱天污染输移质量平衡分析,研究了混接雨水管网旱天排放污染特征.结果表明:①雨水管网旱天排放分为重力流排放和雨水泵开启排放两种情况,重力流排放水质与混接水量水质和河水倒灌相关,雨水泵开启排放水质与混接水量水质、管道淤泥冲刷和河水倒灌相关.②当旱天前期雨水泵不开泵时间小于2 d时,河水倒灌会对重力流排放和雨水泵站排放水质造成明显影响.③随着前期不开泵时间增加,管道淤积程度越发严重;雨水泵排放COD、BOD_5、SS浓度与前期不开泵时间满足指数关系.④旱天重力流排放期间的管道底泥淤积量大于泵站排放期间的淤泥冲刷量,年度尺度上57%的淤积底泥通过旱天雨水泵开启排出,其余43%的淤积底泥在雨天随雨水泵排出,从而进一步加重了河道雨天污染.

海（咸）水入侵作为莱州湾南岸平原的一种新的环境灾害,其发生、发展与该区广泛分布的古河道密切相关。本文研究了古河道的分布规律、沉积特征及分期,并重点探讨了其与海（咸）水入侵的密切关系。古河道是该区海（咸）水入侵的主要通道,古河道中海（咸）水入侵速度快、方式多、周期性变化明显,是灾情是严重、入侵变化最复杂的地貌单元;古河道又是防治海（咸）水入侵的天然工程,古河道砂层径流条件好,只要采取措施提高其地下淡     

Effect of inert species on the laminar burning velocity of hydrogen and ethylene

The maximum laminar burning velocity (LBV) of a fuel-air mixture is an important input parameter to vapor cloud explosion (VCE) blast load prediction methods. In particular, the LBV value has a significant impact on the predicted blast loads for high reactivity fuels with the propensity to undergo a deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT). Published data are available for the maximum LBV of many pure fuel-air mixtures. However, little test data are available for mixtures of fuels, particularly for mixtures of fuels and inert species. Such mixtures are common in the petroleum refining and chemical processing industries. It is therefore of interest to be able to calculate the maximum LBV of a fuel/inert mixture based on the mixture composition and maximum LBV of each component.This paper presents measured test data for the maximum LBV of H₂/inert and C₂H₄/inert mixtures, with both nitrogen and carbon dioxide as the inert species. The LBV values were determined using a constant-volume vessel and the pressure rise method. This paper also provides a comparison of the measured LBV values with simplified LBV prediction methods.     

2009/2010年枯水期珠江口磨刀门水道强咸潮分析

研究对翔实的实测数据进行深入分析,总结出2009/2010年枯水期珠江口磨刀门水道咸潮具有出现早、来势猛、影响大的显著特征。通过对此次强咸潮上溯的影响因素进行分析,研究认为:2009年8月以后,气候变化导致的珠江流域降水异常偏少,径流锐减是2009/2010年枯水期珠江口磨刀门水道强咸潮出现的主要原因;潮汐是驱动磨刀门水道咸潮上溯的主要动力因素,潮汐愈强咸潮愈强;海平面上升是磨刀门水道强咸潮出现的重要影响因素。在全球气候变暖和海平面上升的背景下,研究对深入了解河口区淡水资源的合理开发利用,尤其是对保障河口区城乡供水安全具有重要的参考意义。     

EXPANSION OF SALT-WATER ZONE DUE TO WELL DISCHARGE1

ABSTRACT: In coastal confined aquifers, the extent of the salt-water wedge due to natural ground-water flow can be determined by available methods. If water is pumped by a discharge well, the quality of the water depends upon the rate and duration of pumping as well as the location of the well. A study has been made to find the extent of the progress of salt-water intrusion due to the operation of one discharge well taking into account various conditions of aquifer properties, pump capacities, natural flows, time effects, and well locations. Dimension-less solutions for specific conditions have been obtained by means of a simple computer program. Range of most common conditions is discussed. One of the main findings of this study was that salt water may be pumped out of a well even if it is located in an initially totally fresh-water zone beyond the natural salt/fresh-water interface.
