Abstract

Combining some vapor explosion accidents, the mechanism of the vapor explosion is analyzed. Summarizing some foreign experimental conclusions and combining domestic theoretical researches, the situation of LPG tank exposed to a fire and the rupture of the tank, the impact damage of the tank is analyzed. The tank which suffered from impact vibration is studied in detail. Further research direction is proposed.
