摘要: Hydrocarbon refrigerants present are fire and explosion hazards due to their flammability. This paper describes a quantitative risk assessment (QRA) model evaluate the potential for ignition when hydrocarbons employed in stationary refrigeration air-conditioning equipment. QRA enables examination of effects that design, installation equipment external conditions on frequency refrigerant its consequences. Part I this study presents modelling approach frequencies, sub-models leakage development flammable concentration, associated consequences, being overpressures thermal radiation. II provides recommended empirical input data example results generated from model.
