Salg S., Malow M., Michael-Schulz H., Schomäcker R., 2016, Evaluation of Deflagration Behaviour Using Different Sized Autoclaves, Chemical Engineering Transactions, 48, 193-198.
Deflagration tests were conducted with two kinds of autoclaves. Parameter studies were carried out concerning the gas atmosphere and substances used. Deflagration tests were performed in different pressure regions. Furthermore, deflagration test results of different substances were compared to the corresponding DSC results. Previous findings concerning vacuum conditions could be approved for a greater range of substances. In addition, investigations in nitrogen atmosphere were performed in order to investigate the deflagration behaviour. Experiments up to 161 bar could be utilized. An acceleration of deflagration velocity with increasing pressure was observed in a large pressure interval.
