요약
폭발한계와 인화점은 가연성물질의 화재 및 폭발의 위험성을 결정하는데 중요한 연소특성치이다. 본 연구에서는 산류와 케톤류의 폭발상한계를 예측하기 위해서, 평형상태에서 인화점을 측정하는 Setaflash 밀폐식 장치(ASTM D3278)를 사용하여 이들의 상부인화점을 측정하였다. 측정된 상부인화점을 이용하여 Antoine 식에 의한 계산된 폭발상한계는 기존의 문헌값들보다 약간 낮게 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제시한 실험 및 예측 방법을 이용하여 다른 가연성물질의 폭발상한계 예측이 가능해 졌다.
Abstract
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) for acids and ketones, the upper flash point of these were measured under the VLE (vaporliquid equilibrium) state by using Setaflash closed cup tester (ASTM D3278). The UELs calculated by Antoine equation by 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.
Key Words: Acids, Ketones, Upper flash point, Upper explosion limits (UEL), Setaflash closed cup tester (ASTM D3278)
