Abstract

Abstract Currently, China is engaged in the construction of urban subterranean areas and the deployment of gas pipelines within these spaces. Nonetheless, the entry of gas into subterranean areas poses a definite threat of leaks and explosions. An explosion triggered by a gas pipeline leak will gravely compromise the underground space’s integrity and significantly affect nearby structures. Consequently, examining the spread properties of gas explosion shock waves in urban subterranean areas is essential. This document utilizes FLACS software to develop an extensive straight confined space gas explosion model, examining the load properties of gas explosion shock waves and deriving the propagation law and distribution patterns of blast shock wave loads across various methane volumes. Gas explosion tests confirm the precision of the numerical model. Findings from the study can supply data on load for comparable safety assessments in underground spaces, enhancing their resilience to explosions.
