Abstract

Abstract

Focusing on the state of explosion overpressure field, a number of pressure transducers were installed in the axial and radial directions in the large-scale space. The explosion overpressure fields at different volume fractions of natural gas were recorded. When the volume fraction of natural gas was close to the lower limit of expolsion, three types of pressure curves existed. Former shock wave generated at the beginning of the explosion process was found as well with the further combustion wave. The developments in the axial and radial directions were found different obviously. Different from the instability of pressure in the radial direction, the overpressure development in the axial direction was more suitable to describe the whole developing process of overpressure.
