Abstract
Dangerous chemicals are widely present in various aspects of people's lives, but they often pose risks of leakage and explosion during transportation and storage, resulting in severe casualties and property damage. Firstly, this paper proposes a visualization method applicable to comprehensive failure consequences of hazardous chemical storage tanks. This method considers the toxic hazard range of chemical leaks and the blast overpressure injury range of leak clouds and visualizes the comprehensive failure consequences. Secondly, FLACS is employed to simulate a major leakage and explosion accident at Jinyu Petrochemical Co., Ltd. in Linyi City. The simulation reproduces the leakage and explosion processes and verifies the reliability of the simulation results. Finally, the proposed method is used to visualize the comprehensive failure consequences of this accident, providing comprehensive visual results. The method presented in this paper can serve as a theoretical reference for predicting the development of accidents and clarifying their consequences.
