| Zusammenfassung | New data about explosion regions with special focus on limiting oxygen concentrations for methyl propionate, methyl acetate, dimethyl carbonate with air in the presence of nitrogen, helium and carbon dioxide were determined at ambient initial pressure and 423 K. The measurements were executed according to EN 1839 method T. The changes of the explosion regions with temperature and type of inert gas were also modeled mathematically using an extended calculated adiabatic flame temperature profile (CAFTP) method. The shift of the explosion region boundaries with temperature when switching from nitrogen to carbon dioxide were reproduced well. For a switch to helium a good agreement could be reached only if the very high thermal conductivity of helium had been considered properly by using the Lewis number. This requires the knowledge of the respective Lennard-Jones parameters. The LOC of helium-containing mixtures can, however, be calculated with acceptable accuracy even if the Lennard-Jones parameters of the flammable substance are not known exactly by using reasonable estimations |
