CFD Simulations to Study Parameters Affecting Gas Explosion Venting in Compressor Compartments

In this work, a series of vented explosions in a typical compressor compartment are simulated using FLACS code to analyze the explosion venting characteristics. The effects of relevant parameters on the pressure peaks (i.e., overpressure and negative pressure) are also numerically investigated, incl...
