Influence of preignition pressure rise on safety characteristics of ...
The PIPR in the 1 m 3 chamber with one pressurized dust container was with 115 mbar lower than the PIPRs in the 20Lsphere (see Fig. 3).In cases with higher dust amounts two dust containers can be used so theoretically the PIPR may be around 200 mbar. For the reported values of p max this means, the explosion pressures may be 10 % to 20 % higher than if they were measured under ambient pressure.
