This book was released on 1993 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the present study, the influence of boundary conditions on the propagation of a vapor explosion in a stratified tin/water system has been investigated experimentally. In one of two experiments, a propagating interaction was initiated, by an exploding wire trigger, in a channel formed by two sections of 1.25 cm and 5 cm in width. The interaction failed consistently at the transition into the larger channel, due to the sudden lateral expansion. The behavior of the interaction was also investigated in the absence of confining walls, accomplished by triggering it in the center of a cylindrical tank. The system's response to the trigger varied erratically. Successfully triggered interactions travelled radially outward, about 5-11 cm from the center, at 30-60 m/s, producing overpressures of 0.15 to 0.5 MPa. The tin debris analysis indicated that only a thin layer of tin, ${ sim.86}$ mm deep, was involved in the interaction. This event is, however, suspected to be the result of an overdriven interaction, rather than a sustained propagation. The inherent difficulty in initiating a propagating interaction in the cylindrical geometry lies in the effect of the divergence of the flow. The energy yield/surface area of the event is of the same order of magnitude as that of single tin drop/water explosions and stratified tin/water interactions in a narrow channel, suggesting that the energetics are not significantly influenced by the geometry. This interaction, in many cases, served as a "precursor" event for a second, more energetic interaction, initiated in the coarse mixture of water and molten tin fragments lofted in the wake of the first interaction.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The planning for the IUTAM Symposium on Adiabatic Waves in Liquid-Vapor Systems began in May of 1986 in G5ttingen. The Symposium was held in August of 1989 in the Max-Planck-Institut fUr Str5mungsforschung. The invitations to participants suggested that the written papers concern Fast Adiabatic Phase Changes in Fluids and Related Phenomena. Particular topics suggested were: Liquefaction shockwaves and Shock splitting; Evaporation waves; Condensation in Laval nozzles and turbines; Stability in multiphase shocks; Non-equilibrium and near-critical phenomena; Nucleation in dynamic systems; Structure of transition layers; Acoustic phenomena in two phase systems and Cavitation waves. All of these topics should have been treated with emphasis on physical results, new phenomena and theoretical models. Participants from fourteen nations took part in the Symposium and presented papers which were within the range of suggested topics. The organization and execution of the Symposium was performed by the Max-Planck-Institut fUr Str5mungsforschung in G5ttingen. In particular, the meeting has been promoted under the leadership of Professor Dr. E.-A. MUller, who has for many years given his support for international exchanges in science. The detailed work of organization up to and during the Symposium was in large part due to Dr. T. Kowalewski, who served as Symposium Secretary.

This book was released on 2014-08-01 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 22, 2006, at about 2:45 am, a violent explosion at the CAI/Arnel manufacturing facility rocked the town of Danvers, MA. The explosion and subsequent fire destroyed the facility, heavily damaged dozens of nearby homes and businesses, and shattered windows as far away as two miles. At least 10 residents required hospital treatment for cuts and bruises. Twenty-four homes and six businesses were damaged beyond repair. Dozens of boats at the nearby marina were heavily damaged by blast overpressure and debris strikes. The fire department ordered the evacuation of more than 300 residents within a half-mile radius of the facility. Numerous residents could not return for many months while they waited for their houses to be rebuilt or repaired. Seventeen months after the explosion, six homes had yet to be reoccupied as repairs were not complete. The U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) determined that the explosion was fueled by vapor released from a 2000-gallon tank of highly flammable liquid. An open steam valve on the tank heater most likely caused the flammable liquid to overheat and accumulate in the building production area to what is calculated to have been a near-ideal vapor-air concentration. An unknown ignition source ignited the flammable atmosphere, causing the explosion. The rapidly expanding ignited vapor inside the building created a pressure wave that shattered the rigid, brittle brick walls—disintegrating the structure—and ignited thousands of gallons of flammable liquids stored inside the building and some 51,000 pounds of industrial-grade nitrocellulose material stored nearby. The resultant fire burned for more than 17 hours.On November 22, 2006, at about 2:45 am, a violent explosion at the CAI/Arnel manufacturing facility rocked the town of Danvers, MA.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The effect of fluid properties on the fragmentation behavior of a single molten metal drop interacting explosively with coolant has been investigated experimentally with high-speed regular photography and flash x-ray radiography to visualize the bubble dynamics and drop fragmentation, respectively. Single (0.5 g) drops of tin, bismuth, gallium and Cerrolow heated to between 600-800$ sp circ$C interacting with water at 70$ sp circ$C were investigated. Comparison of the x-ray radiographs shows that in each case the fragmentation occurs in two stages (corresponding to two bubble oscillations). Similar vapor explosions were also observed for molten tin drops interacting with 1-propanol, although the period and amplitude of bubble oscillations both decreased. For 0.1 g aluminum drops heated to 900$ sp circ$C and dropped in water, only a single large interaction was observed." --
