The Flow and Combustion Engineering Division at the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe carried out the explosion experiments of hydrogen-oxygen mixtures in a smooth tube made of stainless steel after two radiolysis gas explosion accidents occurred in Japanese and German BWRs. In these experiments, stoichiometric hydrogen-oxygen mixtures with different initial pressures were used. The pressure in the tube and the strain of the tube were measured, and then the structural response during the detonation and the Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition (DDT) process were investigated. In the present study, a numerical analysis was performed to simulate one of the experiments by the use of the 3-dimensional turbulent combustion analysis code COM3D, which has been developed in FZK, and a DDT process was calculated. The COM3D code contains a reaction rate constant, which must be obtained empirically from experimental results. In the present calculation, the reaction rate constant was assumed to be an exponential function. As a result, it was found that the COM3D code can simulate the DDT process.

Times Cited Count：4 Percentile：29.26(Nuclear Science & Technology)One of the most important safety design issues for a hydrogen production system coupling with a High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor (HTGR) is to ensure reactor safety against fire and explosion accidents because a large amount of combustible fluid is dealt with in the system. The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) has a demonstration test plan of a hydrogen production system by steam reforming of methane coupling with the High Temperature engineering Test Reactor (HTTR). In the plan, we developed the P2A code system to analyze event sequences and consequences in detail on the fire and explosion accidents assumed in the HTGR or HTTR hydrogen production system. This paper described the three accident scenarios assumed in the system, the structure of P2A, the analysis procedure with P2A and the results of the numerical analyses based on the accident scenarios, and it was showed that P2A was a useful tool for the accident analysis in the system.

One of the most important safety design issues for an HTGR hydrogen production system is to ensure reactor safety against fire and explosion accidents in the hydrogen production plant because a large amount of combustible fluid is dealt with in the system. JAERI has the demonstration test plan to connect the hydrogen production system with the HTTR. In the plan, we considered effective measures against the fire and explosion accidents in the HTTR hydrogen production system, which were applicable to the HTGR hydrogen production system of a commercial base, and also developed the P2A code system to analyze event sequences and consequences in detail, on assumed fire and explosion accidents in the HTGR hydrogen production system and the HTTR hydrogen production system. The P2A can analyze the process of leakage, dispersion, ignition, and combustion including deflagration and detonation of the combustible fluid in the internal and external area of the reactor building. In this report, we describe the outline and the usage of the P2A, and the results of preliminary calculations.

The Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI) has the demonstration test plan to connect a hydrogen production system by steam reforming of methane with the High Temperature engineering Test Reactor (HTTR). One of the most important safety design issues for the HTTR hydrogen production system is to ensure reactor safety against fire and explosion accidents. Therefore, we developed the P2A code system to analyze event sequences and consequences in detail, on assumed fire and explosion accidents in the HTTR hydrogen production system. It is possible that the P2A analyzes the process of leakage, dispersion and combustion including deflagration and detonation of the combustible fluid in the internal and external area of the reactor building. This paper describes the outline of the P2A and the results of preliminary calculations.
