k Liquid petroleum gas tank failure testing Liquid petroleum gas tank failure testing. Explosion of boiling liquid and vapour, known as a BLEVE boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion. A BLEVE occurs following the rupture of a vessel containing a pressurized liquid above its boiling point. This explosion is part of liquid petroleum gas LPG tank failure testing. This involved jet fire impingement, a specific type of fire where a spray or jet of burning gas or liquid causes specific types of failures. This test was of a tank that was 70 percent full, containing 4 tonnes of fuel. The test was carried out by the UKs Health and Safety Laboratory.

Liquid petroleum gas tank failure testing

Liquid petroleum gas tank failure testing. Explosion of boiling liquid and vapour, known as a BLEVE (boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion). A BLEVE occurs following the rupture of a vessel containing a pressurized liquid above its boiling point. This explosion is part of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) tank failure testing. This involved jet fire impingement, a specific type of fire where a spray or jet of burning gas or liquid causes specific types of failures. This test was of a tank that was 70 percent full, containing 4 tonnes of fuel. The test was carried out by the UK's Health and Safety Laboratory.
