R2-2 Explosion Potentials
R2-2.1 Silane Ventilated Enclosure Example
R2-2.1.1 Consider the case of a ventilated enclosure of 25.9 ft (0.73 m) volume, swept by a ventilation flow of 450
scfm (12,744 lpm). Silane is supplied to the enclosure by a 1/4-in. (6.3 mm) (OD) line at a regulated pressure of 50
psig (3.4 bar). This line is in turn fed from a source at 1450 psig (100 bar), through a 10-mil restricted flow orifice
(RFO), located at a distance of 80 ft (24.4 m) from the ventilated enclosure. Safe operation of the system is
determined by the evaluation of two conditions:
• the magnitude of the initial silane inventory in the 1/4-in. (6.3 mm) line relative to the size of the enclosure, and
• the magnitude of the RFO-controlled flow relative to the ventilation in the enclosure. The first condition
determines the severity of a potential ignition transient at flow start-up. The second provides a measure of the
pressure development at flow shut-off.
R2-2.2 The standard silane inventory in the line is calculated by first determining the volume of the line [assume
0.035 in. (0.9 mm) wall thickness]:
V
line
= π / 4 (0.25-2×0.035)
2
× 80 × 12 = 24.43 in
3
The silane volume, when expanded to standard conditions, is given by (cf. Eq. 1):
∆Vstd = 24.43 × 0.0708 × 50 (1 + 8.19 10
–7
×
50
2
) = 86.66 in
3
= 0.05 ft
3
The ratio of the volume of the enclosure to the standard volume of silane is:
Vencl / ∆Vstd = 25.9 / 0.05 = 518
R2-2.3 Since this value is greater than 100, the situation is acceptable from the point of view of potential pressure
transients caused by ignition of the release at flow startup.
R2-2.4 Verifying the second condition requires calculating the RFO-controlled flow. By interpolation of the data in
Table 2, the flow through a 10-mil orifice from a source at 1450 psig (100 bar) is estimated to be equal to 2.41 scfm
(68.25 lpm). Since the maximum silane flow rate that can be accepted for a ventilation of 450 scfm (12,744 lpm) is
1.8 scfm (51 lpm) (450/250, see recommendation 3 above), this situation is not acceptable. It would become
acceptable if the ventilation flow was increased to 600 scfm (16,992 lpm) (2.41 ´ 250) or if the explosion venting
conditions shown in Figures R2-2a and R2-2b were to be satisfied.

R2-2.5 Provide explosion venting for gas cabinets and enclosures to limit overpressure inside gas cabinets and
enclosures to 0.25 psig (1.7 kPag). Explosion venting can be provided by door panels, windows, louvers or exhaust
duct openings. Size explosion venting to satisfy both the requirements for line inventory pressure (Figure R2-2a) and
for the volume of the enclosure (or cabinet) (Figure R2-2b).
