Electrical control boxes are common on high vapour cloud hazard sites, and in the case of the Buncefield explosion the ignition source was inside such a box, that was sited in an emergency pump house building. There has, however, been relatively litt

The majority of very large vapour cloud explosions occur in such low wind speeds that vapour flow is gravity-driven. The rate of stripping (or detrainment) of heavy gas by the wind is so low that almost all of the gas released remains in a gas “bla

This paper presents a review of Vapour Cloud Explosions (VCEs) to examine: 1. The relationship between weather conditions, source term and development of the flammable cloud. 2. The consequences of explosion in clouds with higher reactivity than meth

The 2005 Buncefield vapour cloud explosion showed the huge cost associated with blast damage to commercial property surrounding a major explosion incident. In most cases there was serious disruption to business activity; in many cases the buildings h

This paper presents a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of the evaporating liquid cascade produced in a large hydrocarbon storage tank overfilling incident. The model is first validated against the results of a unique series of full-scale expe

Dispersion of the flammable vapour cloud in the 2005 Buncefield Incident is examined. Footage from security cameras around the site is analysed and the results from Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations of the vapour dispersion are presented

Damage caused by the 2005 Buncefield explosion indicates pressures in excess of 2000 mbar over all of the area covered by the vapour cloud. Such high overpressures are normally associated with high (super-sonic) rates of flame spread. On the other ha

The fire plume interacting with an inclined surface was visualised and analysed using a modified positive–negative grid schlieren system combined with a CCD camera and computer system. The fire source was simulated by a gas burner with a fine perfo

The value of the critical velocity to create a safe route upstream clear of smoke in the event of a tunnel fire is one of the prime important criteria for the design of the emergency ventilation system for road tunnels. For a tunnel with downhill slo
