Abstrakt: A large number of gas explosion accidents have shown that secondary explosions are more dangerous and destructive than the primary. Based on the self-designed sliding experiment platform, the influence of sliding device on the evolution behavior of fuel enriched and lean flame fronts be compared. The study shown that adjusting the initial sliding position of porous media to 40 cm and using an appropriate spring coefficient can effectively extinguish methane flame in both fuel enriched and fuel lean combustion states. This method can reduce the range of flame diffusion, burning time and intensity compared with using fixed porous media, and also the maximum explosion overpressure. When using a sliding device in methane lean combustion, it can achieve significant reductions in the duration of the reverse diffusion flame (up to 64.02%), the quenching time of the flame (up to 44.21%), and the explosion overpressure inside the tube (up to 24.2%). During rich methane combustion, using sliding device can result in a reduction of up to 62.26% in the duration of the reverse diffusion flame, up to 46.81% in the quenching time of the flame, and up to 44.12% in the explosion overpressure inside the tube. Additionally, the inhibitory effect of the sliding device and the increase in elastic coefficient follow a pattern of initially increasing and then decreasing. In general, the sliding device is more effective in suppressing methane flames and overpressure during both enriched and lean fuel combustion than fixed device. The results can provide valuable insights for the development of secondary explosion prevention technology, which is crucial for preventing and managing methane explosion accidents.
