The calculation for explosion venting were originally based on simple venting ratios. The latest version of NFPA 68 is more complex and requires experience to apply the calculation procedure and get a reasonable sense of confidence of the adequacy of the results - without which explosive failure of enclosures can occur.
In this presentation Mark Mannex will provide an overview of explosions and the approach he adopts to apply the NFPA 68 procedure for venting calculations, including sensitivity analysis to imbue confidence in the results.
