The effects of obstacle geometry on jet mixing in releases of silane
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Releases of silane into air and the effects of obstacles were modeled with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code, FLUENT. First the CFD code simulated the release of a free turbulent jet of silane into air to assure ...
Development of a relational chemical process safety database and applications to safety improvements
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Industrial accidents still show a major concern to both the public and the environment. It has been a governmental objective to minimize these accidents. Several rules and regulations have emerged to reduce the impacts ...
Effects of operating conditions on a heat transfer fluid aerosol
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
Heat transfer fluids (HTFs) are extensively used in the chemical process industry and are available in wide ranges of properties. Aside from their importance, Factory Mutual Engineering and Research has reported 54 fires ...
Chemical accident databases: what they tell us and how they can be improved to establish national safety goals
(Texas A&M University, 2000)
The objectives of this research are to examine and critique eight chemical accident databases, document any trends in accident occurrences, develop a strategy for improving current databases, and to establish national ...
