Abstract

В работе осуществлена оценка величины потенциального риска при перевозке пожароопасных грузов автомобильным транспортом с учетом возможного стекания горючей жидкости по уклонам. Проведено сравнение величины пожарного риска для случаев открытых и закрытых дренажных канав. It is not possible to calculate the fire risk that takes into account slopes on roads within the existing methodology for determining the calculated fire risk values at production facilities. The article suggests the elaboration of methodology considering the above-mentioned factors. The paper provides comparative assessment of the fire risk when transporting gasoline by automobile tanks with a capacity of 28 m, both considering one of the factors (road slope, the presence of drainage ditches) and without it. It is shown that these factors can have a significant impact on the fire risk value for objects near which there is an accident with a fire of vehicles with significant amount of flammable liquid. The potential risk increases approaching the lowest point of the road section. At the same time, depending on the total length of the section with a slope, this value may be an order higher than the fire risk in the areas located above. Technical measures such as drainage ditches can significantly affect the fire risk value. When open drainage ditches are installed, the risk of fire escalation increases when the burning liquid flows down. When installing closed drainage ditches, the risk of escalation due to the spread of fire is minimized and is possible mainly in the locations of drainage ditch hatches. At the same time, such technical solution increases the potential risk in the area of liquid discharge to the terrain.
