The explosion-suppression effects of NSSs on overpressures, flame propagation and flame tip velocities were explored under the initial pressures of 0.2 MPa, 0.3 MPa and 0.4 MPa. All experiments tested in a constant volume combustion bomb (CVCB). Explosion reaction of premixed propane–air gas in a new designed CVCB filled with nonmetallic spherical spacers (NSSs) was analyzed. The results showed that overpressures decreased under the different initial pressures. With the increase of filling density, the overpressure decreased, the time to reach explosion overpressure decreased, and the decay rate of explosion overpressure increased. It was also found that the explosion-suppression effects of NSSs on pressures. Flame front could be captured by high-speed schlieren photography. Combustion phenomena were captured including flame propagation, corrugated laminar flame, jet flame, corrugated turbulent flame as well as tulip flame under different initial pressures. Flame tip velocities also were captured. The results demonstrate that flame tip velocities decreased with the increase of filling densities. However, compared with unfilled CVCB, flame tip velocities increased after filling NSSs in CVCB under different initial pressures. NSSs suppressed the explosion overpressure in the cylinder, and promoted the flame propagation. In both cases, NSSs played a dual role. The suppression effect of NSSs was affected by both its suppression and promotion effect on the explosion. This work provides a scientific basis for the effective prevention of explosion accidents with propane–air premixtures and the development of explosion-suppression products.

At present, the world is committed to the development of environmentally friendly, sustainable and industrial safety. The effective treatment of industrial solid waste can be applied in the field of industrial safety. It is one of the ways to apply industrial solid waste to industrial safety to modify industrial solid waste and combine active powder to prepare industrial solid waste-based composite powder explosion inhibitors and apply it to underground coal dust explosion. This paper introduces the modification and preparation methods of industrial solid waste, and analyzes the good explosion suppression effect and good economic benefit of industrial solid waste-based composite powder explosion inhibitors on coal dust explosion. In this paper, four kinds of industrial solid wastes (red mud, slag, fly ash and sludge) were modified, and the modified solid waste materials with good carrier characteristics were obtained. Combined with a variety of active powders (NaHCO3, KH2PO4 and Al(OH)3), the industrial solid waste-based composite powder explosion inhibitors were obtained by solvent-crystallization (WCSC) and dry coating by ball milling (DCBM). Those kinds of explosion inhibitors can suppress the explosion of pulverized coal in 40–50% of cases. Compared with the powder explosion inhibitor commonly used in industry, it has a lower production cost and better explosion suppression effect. Those kinds of explosion inhibitors have a good industrial application prospect.

This article discusses the overpressure of a gas explosion and the performance of applying water mist for explosion suppression. According to the experimental results, the larger the opening area, the more difficult it is for pressure to accumulate, resulting in lower overpressure of a gas explosion. When the opening was opened under a high air speed environment, the amount of entrained air was greater. Consequently, the occurrence time of the explosion was shorter than at a low air speed. Despite the water mist nozzle being installed outside the enclosure, a propane gas explosion still occurred regardless of the amount of water mist used, failing to suppress the explosion. However, the water mist nozzle installed inside the enclosure supplied an adequate amount of water mist that could wash a part of the propane, resulting in the fuel concentration dropping below the lower explosion limit, hindering the occurrence of an explosion.

In this article, the effect of a chamber’s geometrical parameters on suppressing gas explosion propagation was studied. Three rectangular chambers were used in the study, with a constant length of 0.5 m, a constant height of 0.2 m, and a variable width of 0.3 m, 0.5 m, and 0.8 m; each chamber was installed in a pipeline system for experimental research. The experimental results showed that when the chamber length and height were fixed at 0.5 m and 0.2 m, respectively, the suppression effect of the chamber on the explosion shockwave improves with the increase in the chamber width; when the chamber width increases to 0.8 m, the chamber has suppressive effect on explosion shockwave propagation. It was also found that the suppression effect of the chambers on the explosion flame improves with the increase in the chamber width; when the width of the chamber is 0.5 m, the chamber effectively suppresses explosion flames. Based on the experimental results, a numerical model was established to simulate the suppression effect of five types of chambers with a length, width, and height of 0.5 m × 0.3 m × 0.2 m, 0.3 m × 0.5 m × 0.2 m, 0.5 m × 0.5 m × 0.2 m, 0.5 m × 0.8 m × 0.2 m, and 0.8 m × 0.5 m × 0.2 m, respectively. The numerical simulation results indicated that when the chamber length and height are constant at 0.5 m and 0.2 m, respectively, the suppressive effect of the chamber on the shockwave improves as the chamber width increases; when the chamber width increases to 0.8 m, the shockwave overpressure at the chamber outlet is attenuated by 10.61%, indicating that the chamber suppresses the propagation of explosion shockwave, which is consistent with the experimental results obtained in the study. It was also found that when the chamber width and height were constant at 0.5 m and 0.2 m, respectively, as the chamber length increases, the overpressure increases first and then weakens. When the chamber length increases to 0.8 m, the overpressure at the chamber outlet is attenuated by −14.16%, indicating that the chamber is not able to suppress the propagation of explosion shockwave. Finally, a numerical simulation of the propagation process of a methane-air mixture and explosion flames in different chambers was performed to analyse the effect of chamber geometrical parameters on explosion suppression effect.
