Blind-prediction: estimating the consequences of vented hydrogen deflagrations for inhomogeneous mixtures in 20-foot ISO containers
Skjold, Trygve; Hisken, Helene; Bernard, Laurence; Mauri, Lorenzo; Atanga, Gordon; Lakshmipathy, Sunil; Lucas, Melodia; Carcassi, Marco; al., et (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-09)This paper summarises the results from a blind-prediction benchmark study for models used for estimating the consequences of vented hydrogen deflagrations, as well as for users of such models. The work was part of the HySEA ... -
Computational fluid dynamics simulations of hydrogen releases and vented deflagrations in large enclosures
Lucas, Melodia; Hisken, Helene; Skjold, Trygve (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-01)This paper presents model predictions obtained with the CFD tool FLACS for hydrogen releases and vented deflagrations in containers and larger enclosures. The paper consists of two parts. The first part compares experimental ... -
Flame propagation in dust clouds. Numerical simulation and experimental investigation
Skjold, Trygve (Doctoral thesis, 2014-06-27)This dissertation describes the development and validation of a methodology for estimating the consequences of accidental dust explosions in complex geometries. The approach adopted entails the use of results from standardized ... -
Flame Propagation in Dust Clouds: Challenges for Model Validation
Skjold, Trygve (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2010)Modelling of industrial dust explosions poses a formidable challenge to researchers and safety engineers. Whereas current best practice with respect to modelling the consequences of vapour cloud explosions in the petroleum ... -
Modelling of vented dust explosions – empirical foundation and prospects for future validation of CFD codes
Skjold, Trygve; Wingerden, Kees van; Hansen, Olav R.; Eckhoff, Rolf Kristian (IChemE Symposium Series;154, Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2008)Explosion venting is the most frequently used method for mitigating the effects from accidental dust explosions in the process industry. Optimal design of vent systems and credible execution of risk assessments in powder ... -
Possibilities, limitations, and the way ahead for dust explosion modelling
Skjold, Trygve; Larsen, Ø.; Hansen, Olav R. (IChemE Symposium Series;151, Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2006)The purpose of the present paper is threefold. First, a brief review of modelling, main results, and preliminary conclusions from the DESC project are presented; current capabilities and limitations of the DESC code are ... -

Simplified modelling of explosion propagation by dust lifting in coal mines
Skjold, Trygve; Eckhoff, Rolf Kristian; Arntzen, Bjørn Johan; Lebecki, K.; Dyduch, Z.; Klemens, R.; Zydak, P. (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2007)Dispersion of accumulated layers of combustible dust by turbulent flow or shock waves ahead of the propagating flame may sustain explosion propagation in coal mine galleries and other industrial facilities. The mechanisms ... -
Simulating the Effect of Release of Pressure and Dust Lifting on Coal Dust Explosions
Skjold, Trygve (Conference object; Peer reviewed, 2007)Dispersion of accumulated layers of combustible dust by turbulent flow or shock waves ahead of a propagating flame can play an important role for explosion propagation in coal mines. In 1924, Greenwald and Wheeler investigated ... -
