Don t be misled by the technical title of this book — Explosive Principles is a readable, easy-to-understand primer on the nature of detonations, as well as a concise look at the basic but often overlooked techniques that professionals use to maximize the performance of primary and secondary explosives to get any job done right. A must for demolition personnel, amateur powder monkeys, or anybody interested in things that go bang,... 

Starting with explosion principles, now is the time to look at the details of the system. 

The convenience of the offered monitoring system consists in an opportunity fast adjustment in conditions of many nomenclature manufacture, reception of the protocol of the testing results, opportunity of use of the unskilled personnel. By an offered principle installations for the testing of welding by explosion of cases of plunger pumps, details of air engineering and other were developed.

This explosion in steroid chemistry both stimulated and was aided by the development of conformational analysis (10). Many basic, physical organic chemistry principles were estabUshed as a result of the study of the logically predictable chemistry of the rigid perhydro-l,2-cyclopentenophenanthrene, steroid skeleton. 

Preventive Explosion Protection The principle of preventive explosion protection comprises the reliable exclusion of one of the requirements necessary for the development of an explosion. In pictorial terms, therefore, at least one of the sides of the hazard triangle shown in Figure 26-33 will be broken open.

Dow (Sheffler, 1996 Gowland, 1996a,b) describes the use of the Dow Fire and Explosion Index (Dow, 1994b) and the Dow Chemical Exposure Index (Dow, 1994a) as measures of inherent safety, along with the use of inherently safer design principles to reduce hazards. 

The chemical and physical phenomena involved in chemical process accidents is very complex. The preceding provides the elements of some of the simpler analytic methods, but a PSA analyst should only have to know general principles and use the work of experts contained in computer codes. There are four types of phenomenology of concern 1) release of dispersible toxic material, 21 dispersion of the material, 3) fires, and 4) explosions. A general reference to such codes is not in the open literature, although some codes are mentioned in CCPS (1989) they are not generally available to the public. 

Many explosions have occurred while furnaces were being lit. The two incidents described below occurred some years ago on furnaces with simple manual ignition systems, but they illustrate the principles to be followed when lighting a furnace, whether this is canied out manually or automatically.
