(104j) Explosibility of Methane-Corn Hybrid Mixtures

The explosion features of corn dust in atmosphere of methane at different concentrations of either dust or gas are studied. Experimental measurements of the maximum explosion pressure and maximum rate of pressure rise are performed by 36 L dust explosion equipment though adapted in such hybrid mixtures. Results clearly show that the explosion behavior of such hybrid mixtures reveals significant differences with respect to either dust or gas explosions.
