Abstract
The dangers of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) have been analyzed. The storage tanks of liquefied petroleum gas have been fixed at 20 m3, and the quantitative analysis of boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion occurring in tank discussed by the model. The results showed that when the distance between the target and the fireball is 14.12–22.32 m, there would be no discomfort with long-term exposure; within 8.00–14.12 m there would be slight pain caused but no blisters; during 5.65–8.00 m there would be moderate damage creating first degree burn/10 s, 10 % deaths/1 min; in the range of 4.61–5.65 m there would be more serious wounds (injuries/10 s, 100 % deaths/1 min); and less than 4.61 m there would be deaths (1 % deaths/10 s, 100 % deaths/l min). In addition, the design of the LPG station, which met the requirements of fire protection, was confirmed and could provide design proposals for the spacing between the related constructions.
