Design rules for pipe systems subject to internal explosions. Pt.1
conference paper
Pipe systems that are used in the process industry may occasionally be subjected to internal deflagration and detonation waves. In those cases the design of the pipe system should be explosion resistant or explosion proof. Special rules have been developed to design such pipe systems. On request of and in corporation with BASF in Ludwigshafen, Germany, the design rules for piping subjected to internal detonations have been reviewed, focusing on two main subjects: the generation and propagation of detonation waves and secondly the response of the piping to the loads imposed by detonation waves. This paper will focus mainly on the last subject, i.e. the response of the piping on the dynamic loads.
