Abstract:

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) fire-tested a portable tank (filled with liquid nitrogen [LN2]) and observed the demonstration of the performance of the pressure relief valve system in this Phase 1 project. In addition, several types of data have been collected during the experiment to understand how the fire exposure affects the internal and external heating of the tank. This information will be used in future computer modeling efforts to predict performance with different tanks and fire scenarios. The next phase of the project will include an additional test, with the test tank filled with liquefied natural gas (LNG) instead of LN2. The results of the second test will be compared to the first test and will also provide additional validation data for future modeling calculations.
