Chemical reactions are one of the 13 types of ignition sources to be considered in explosion risk analyses that EN 1127 requires. The variety of reactions is large and the analysis of ignition scenarios ranges from runaway reactions to self-heating and self-ignition.
IND EX® has therefore developed a thermal safety programme, TSTOOLS®basic, which facilitates this analysis and consists of five categories:
Heat accumulation in solids - self-heating,
Exothermic reaction,
Temperature limits for equipment,
Literature,
Abbreviations.
TSTOOLS®basic is based on many years of experience in assessing the thermal risks of chemical reactions or processes involving heat or fire. The tool's calculations provide scientifically sound - but practical - results to ensure that chemical reactions or other thermal processes are carried out safely.
Parameters that can be determined with TSTOOLS®basic:
Critical temperature for bulk material
Time to maximum rate, trm
Temperature at an induction time of 24 hours, TD24, AZT24
Scale-up of the critical heat release rate
Maximum drying temperature for various dryers
Scale-up of the critical heat output
TSTOOLS®basic runs on all iPhones®, iPads® with iOS 9 or higher and on Android devices.
