船运液态二氧化碳储罐爆炸事故的原因分析

在分析船运液态二氧化碳储罐爆炸事故的基础上,近似计算了其物理爆炸的能量,并采用TNT当量计算方法,分别估算了事故的人员死亡区域、重伤区域、轻伤区域的半径和建筑物毁灭性破坏区域的半径;同时根据事故容器设计参数的验算,指出由于对事故容器归属"低温压力容器"和"低温低应力压力容器"的错误划分造成制造材料选用的错误,以及违规使用,从而导致了事故的发生;并针对事故的原因,提出了应引起的反思。

Analysis of a Liquid CO2 Tank Explosion on a Ship

The explosion of liquid carbon dioxide tank is extremely rare in the world,and this paper describes the 125 m3 liquid carbon dioxide tank explosion that happened on a ship.The paper gives a comprehensive analysis and calculation on the explosion energy and hazard radius as well as the causes of the accident,with the explosion energy converted to TNT equivalents.Tank explosion radiuses leading to death,serious injury and different degrees of destructions are also obtained via theoretic calculation.According ...
