Comments on LNG fire hazards

摘要

A recent paper in this journal concerning LNG fire hazards in storage might, in the opinion of this author, benefit from the following additional points. The author of Ref. states: None of the codes/standards/guidelines for LNG make any specific reference to or requirement for vapour cloud explosion (VCE) modelling. However, Bechtel performs a series of VCE calculations for confined or congested locations where flammable vapours could accumulate within the facility.
