Abstract
PURPOSE. Currently, during construction of facilities, the most comfortable conditions for their operation are created. The main principles that ensure comfort during operation of a construction facility are safety and reliability of building structures and the entire edifice. One of the conditions for the reliability of a building structure is its stability in relation to possible explosive loads or the explosion resistance of the object. This article substantiates the need to study deflagration explosion in relation to the design and construction of facilities where emergency explosions may occur. The study of this phenomenon is necessary for designing buildings and structures with explosion-proof features. METHODS. In studying emergency explosions, most important is an experimental study of the development of explosive combustion in a specific room equipped with pressure relief structures of certain parameters. This is due to the fact that a lot of parameters affect explosion loads, and for specific individual parameters of the pressure relief structures, explosion pressure may differ significantly. This feature is characteristic of most non-stationary processes, which include explosive phenomena. Experimental determination of characteristics and indicators of an emergency explosion is the most reliable tool in assessing the effectiveness of a specific pressure relief structure aimed at reducing explosive loads to a safe level. This article describes in detail the methodology for conducting experimental studies aimed at investigating this issue. FINDINGS. The experimental research methodology used by the author makes it possible to obtain all the necessary information about the parameters of explosive loads formed during internal emergency explosions. RESEARCH APPLICATION FIELD. As a result of experimental studies, the efficiency of specific pressure relief structures aimed at ensuring safe levels of explosive loads is determined. This allows for the design of buildings and structures to be explosion-proof. CONCLUSIONS. When designing and constructing facilities, it is often necessary to determine the parameters of possible loads formed during internal deflagration explosions. To determine them experimentally, the author has developed a methodology for conducting experimental studies aimed at studying internal deflagration explosions. The article provides a detailed description of stands and equipment for conducting such experiments. It thoroughly outlines the measuring system and method of processing experimental data, provides an example of processing the results of the experiment.
