24、ction This document specifies a method for experimental determination of the maximum explosion pressure of dust clouds. The maximum explosion pressure is the maximum value of the overpressure during explosions of explosive atmospheres in the explosion range of a combustible dust in a closed vessel.

25、The measurement of the maximum explosion pressure forms the basis for explosion protection by design and construction of equipment, protective systems and components to reduce the explosion effects. This maximum explosion pressure is a safety characteristic used for hazard identification and designi

26、ng safety measures for the mitigation of destructive effects of dust explosions. !deleted text“ BS EN 14034-1:2004+A1:2011EN 14034-1:2004+A1:2011 (E)5 1 Scope This document describes a test method for the determination of the maximum explosion pressure of dust clouds in a closed vessel under defined

27、 initial conditions of pressure and temperature. This method is not suitable for use with recognised explosives, like gunpowder and dynamite, substances which do not require oxygen for combustion, pyrophoric substances, or substances or mixtures of substances which may under some circumstances behav

28、e in a similar manner. Where any doubt exists about the existence of hazard due to explosive properties, expert advice should be sought. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

35、pressure pmaxof dust clouds is an explosion pressure resistant vessel of 1 m, as used for the determination of the maximum rate of explosion pressure rise (KSt-value) and the lower explosion limit of dust clouds as well as the limiting oxygen concentration of dust/air/inert gas mixtures. The main co

36、mponents of the test apparatus are explosion vessel; dust dispersion system; ignition source; control unit; pressure measuring system. NOTE The 20 l sphere apparatus is an alternative explosion vessel for these determinations (see annex C) 4.2 Explosion vessel The standard explosion vessel is an exp

37、losion pressure resistant, spherical or cylindrical vessel in accordance with !EN 14460“ having a volume of 1 m. The aspect ratio of the cylindrical vessel shall be 1:1 10 % (see Figure 1). NOTE It is recommended that the explosion vessel be designed to withstand an overpressure of at least 20 bar.

38、The apparatus shall be fitted with electrical and/or mechanical cut-offs as far as possible to ensure that any openings in the vessel (e.g. main door, instrument ports, inlet or outlet) are properly closed before a test procedure can start. The apparatus shall also be equipped as far as possible to

39、ensure that any residual pressure inside the vessel is vented before the vessel can be opened.

Its aspect ratio is 3

41、:1. It is designed to withstand an internal overpressure of at least 20 bar (see Figure 2). The dust container has an outlet at the base, through which the dust leaves the container. This outlet is closed by a fast acting valve activated by a blasting cap. The valve has a mushroom-shaped seal. The s

42、eal is held in position against the pressure in the dust container by a small ring. The ring is destroyed by firing a blasting cap and the valve opens due to the pressure inside the dust container (see Figure 2). The valve shall be designed so that it opens in less than 10 ms. For alternative valves

43、 see annex A. The fast acting valve is connected to the side of the explosion vessel. The connecting tube between the fast acting valve and the dust disperser shall be not longer than 350 mm (see Figure 1).

45、)10 For dispersing the dust, a perforated semicircular spray pipe (dust disperser) is mounted inside the explosion vessel, concentric with its wall. The spray pipe, with an internal diameter of 21,7 mm1) is fitted with 13 holes of a diameter of 6 mm (incl. one hole in each end cap) which shall be lo

46、cated as shown in Figure 3 (see also Figure 1). For coarse, voluminous, fibrous or poorly flowing dust samples, it may not be possible to properly discharge the dust through the dust dispersers detailed in Figures 3 and B.1. It may, therefore, be necessary to use special dust dispersers, examples of

47、 which are given in Figures B.2 and B.3. In such cases, the dust disperser used shall be described in the test report. NOTE If other dust dispersing systems than those described in this standard are used, a propagation of the explosion from the explosion vessel into the dust container, cannot be exc

48、luded. For this case, additional safety measures should be employed, e.g. higher pressure resistance of the dust container.
