METHOD TO PREVENT EXPLOSION OF GASEOUS MIXTURE

摘要

FIELD: mining. ^ SUBSTANCE: method to prevent explosion of a gaseous mixture includes removal of combustible gas from a monitored room through ventilation. At the same time it is additionally burnt by periodical ignition, with one or several electrical dischargers, controlled with a timer. Dischargers are installed in the monitored room around potential areas of combustible gas leakages at the minimum distance sufficient for its ignition. The ignition period is defined with the minimum time for creation of an explosive gaseous mixture around the discharger and is set with the timer's programme. ^ EFFECT: higher efficiency of preventing explosion of a gaseous mixture.
