This manual highlights multiphase flow phenomenology relevant to design of
emergency relief systems for runaway chemical reactions and storage vessels,
including aspects of gas disengagement within the vessel and gas-liquid flow
within the vent line. It also provides organized background material, so the
reader can make a detailed study of the underlying physical models. Additional
support material includes development of energy balances, multi-component
methodology, and physical property packages used in the SAFIRE Computer Code.

These reports present large-scale test data useful for the better understanding
of vessel and vent line multiphase flow behavior applicable to emergency relief
of chemical systems. Included are depressurization data for water, soapy water,
ethylbenzene, polystyrene-polystyrene, polyvinyl alcohol, hexane and
hexane-polybutadiene, and runaway reaction data for
styrene-polystyrene-polystyrene. Vessel sizes ranged from 32 liters (45tests)
to 2000 liters (25 tests). Information consists of the
time-temperature-pressure-void fraction history and analysis of each test.
Complete apparatus design details are provided to facilitate independent
analysis of the data bank. Topics include:
-
10 Small / Large-Scale Experimental Data and Analysis Reports,
-
Large-Scale Integral Tests: Facility Description,
-
Large-Scale Rubber Cement High Viscosity Two-Phase Flow Test Report,
-
Large-Scale Polystyrene-Ethyl benzene High Viscosity Two-Phase Test Report,
-
Analysis of DIERS Phase III Blowdown Tests,
-
