BS EN 15967:2022 PDF

Scope: What is BS EN 15967 - Determination of maximum explosion pressure about? BS EN 15967 discusses the determination of maximum explosion pressure and the maximum rate of pressure rise of gases and vapours. Gas usually contains a single thermodynamic state at room temperature. Vapour has a collection of particles without any definite shape when observed under a microscope. BS EN 15967 specifies a test method that is designed to measure the explosion pressure and the maximum explosion pressure, the rate of explosion pressure rise, and the maximum rate of explosion pressure rise of a quiescent flammable gas/air/inert mixture in a closed volume at ambient temperature and pressure. In BS EN 15967 , the term “gas” includes vapours but not mists. Note 1: Detonation and decomposition phenomena are not considered in BS EN 15967 . Note 2: The pressures and rates of pressure rise measured by the procedures specified in BS EN 15967 are not applicable to flameproof enclosures, i.e., enclosures intended to withstand an internal explosion and not to transmit it to an external explosive atmosphere, or any other closed volume where the internal geometry can...
