A high velocity jet fire can cause catastrophic failure due to flame impingement or radiation. The scenario becomes more complicated when multiple jet fires exist following ignition of release from pressure relief valves (PRV) as the thermal effect not only distorts the individual jet flame but also changes the flame height and temperature profile and such kind of high velocity jet flames have not been studied in the past. Therefore, prediction of the flame shape including the merging and interaction of multiple jet fires is essential in risk analysis. In this paper, fire interaction of two high velocity (>10 m/s) jet fires is investigated using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques. Different radiation models are analyzed and validated by experimental data from the literature. Based on the simulation result, the merging of high velocity jet fires is divided into three stages. An empirical equation considering the fire interaction for the average flame height with different release velocities and separation distance is developed. The flame height increases dramatically when the separation distance decreases resulting in a shortage of oxygen. So, part of the methane is reacted in a higher height, which explains the change in the merging flame height and temperature.

Characteristics of microjet hydrogen diffusion flames stabilized near extinction are investigated numerically. Two-dimensional simulations are carried out using a detailed reaction mechanism. The effect of burner wall material, thickness, and thermal radiation on flame characteristics such as flame height and maximum flame temperature are studied. Results show that the flame stabilizes at lower fuel jet velocities for quartz burner than steel or aluminum. Higher flame temperatures are observed for low conductive burners, whereas the flame length increases with an increase in thermal conductivity of the burner. Even though thermal radiation has a minor effect on flame characteristics like flame temperature and flame height, it significantly influences the flame structure for low conductive burner materials. The burner tip and its vicinity are substantially heated for low conductive burners. The effect of burner wall thickness on flame height is significant, whereas it has a more negligible effect on maximum flame temperature. Variation in wall thickness also affects the distribution of H and HO2 radicals in the flame region. Although the variation in wall thickness has the least effect on the overall flame shape and temperature distribution, the structure near the burner port differs.
