8 results about "Limiting oxygen concentration" patented technology

The limiting oxygen concentration, (LOC), also known as the minimum oxygen concentration, (MOC), is defined as the limiting concentration of oxygen below which combustion is not possible, independent of the concentration of fuel. It is expressed in units of volume percent of oxygen. The LOC varies with pressure and temperature. It is also dependent on the type of inert (non-flammable) gas.

Method and system for judging explosion risk of combustible gas-nitrogen mixture

The invention relates to the technical field of mixture explosion judgment, and discloses a combustible gas-nitrogen mixture explosion risk judgment method and system, and the method comprises the steps: building a hyperbolic model based on the constraint formed by the explosion lower limit and the limit oxygen concentration of explosive gas in a mixture; drawing a corresponding model curve in the rectangular coordinate system by using a function drawing program to form an explosion area classification graph; inputting the two-time mixed data into an explosion area classification map, and judging the explosion risk of the secondary mixture according to the position; if the hyperbolic model judges that explosive exists, an alarm is given out immediately; the data is transmitted to the cloud for real-time calibration; and when the explosive gas mixture data and the cloud data reach a preset similarity value, early warning is given out immediately. The system comprises a hyperbolic model construction module, an explosion attribute judgment module and an explosion early warning module. According to the invention, accurate assessment and rapid response to the explosion risk of the mixed gas are realized, and the method has important safety value.
