Flashing, Mixed Liquid-Vapor Releases

Behavior of Flashing, Mixed Liquid-Vapor Releases... [Pg.17]

On the other hand, turbulence may also be generated by external sources. For example, fuels are often stored in vessels under pressure. In the event of a total vessel failure, the liquid will flash to vapor, expanding rapidly and producing fast, turbulent mixing. Should a small leak occur, fuel will be released as a high-velocity, turbulent jet in which the fuel is rapidly mixed with air. If such an intensely turbulent fuel-air mixture is ignited, explosive combustion and blast can result. [Pg.133]
