Fire Risk Assessment and Numerical Simulation of the Pool Fire in the Epoxy Propane Tank

This paper takes the epoxy propane tank area in a chemical company in service for an example, and conducts the fire risk assessment and numerical simulation of pool fire in a single tank of this area. Through the analysis of burning flame shape, flue gas velocity of flame center and the variation of thermal radiation intensity, the destructive power of pool fire to surrounding equipment, tanks, buildings is obtained, the degree of damage to workers and rescuers around is determined. The study results are of important clinical significance for the fire fighting and safe evacuation in the epoxy propane tank area.
