Numerical Calculation Of The Flame Spreading Over A Methane Hydrate Surface, Otabek Nigmatov, Oksana Ismailova
CHEMISTRY AND CHEMICAL ENGINEERING
The Methane Hydrate is expected as an energy source and is being as a medium distance transport means of natural gas alternative of LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas). During the natural gas transportation, fire accidents are concerned. In the present study, the flame spreading over a methane hydrate surface has been studied numerically as a function of hydrate surface temperature, Ts. When Ts = 173 K (-100℃), lower than the dissociation temperature (Td = 183 K (-90℃)), the flame spreading speed is around 6.5 mm/s, while the flame spreading speed at Ts = 193 K (-80℃), …
