Abstract

Abstract Road transportation of hazardous chemicals has a high risk and is likely to cause serious road traffic accidents. In this paper, the most common LPG tanker in hazardous chemical transportation is taken as the research object. Based on theCFD method, we used FLACS software to simulate LPG tank car accident in Italy. The leakage process of LPG tank car after leakage was simulated, and the diffusion process of propane and butane mixture in one minute when the accident occurred. It was further analyzed that the leakage material exploded when it encountered the ignition source, and the shock wave overpressure was the highest at 2.5 seconds after the explosion, with the shock wave pressure exceeded 0.26MPa. Also, the attenuation of theblast wave is higher in the area far away from the explosion source. The research results can provide effective data support for on-site emergency disposal and personnel evacuation of similar accidents.
