recently
There are some claims circulating online
The general content is:
"If the gas tank catches fire, if the valve is closed directly, it will backfire and explode"
Beibei wants to say this
This is misleading and not credible
When a liquefied petroleum gas tank catches fire
Whether to close the valve first or extinguish the fire first
In response to the claims circulating on the Internet
Firefighters conducted fire extinguishing experiments on the spot
In one fell swoop, it shattered the Internet rumors
It turns out
In the event of an initial fire hazard in a liquefied petroleum gas tank
Our first choice should be to close the valve
When the valve is closed, the fire is quickly extinguished
If you take the method of extinguishing the fire first
When the valve is not closed
The extinguishing time will be prolonged, which will lead to an increase in danger
It should be noted that:
Do not let the burning bottle fall to the ground at this time
Because when the cylinder is overturned
The flame will be refracted through the ground
Accelerates the rise in bottle temperature
After reaching a certain temperature
The liquefied gas inside the bottle is heated and expanded
The bottle body is prone to physical explosions
According to gas experts
Household LPG tanks are generally 10 litres
In the event of an explosion
The power is equivalent to more than 3,000 grenades
Enough to blow up a two-story building
How terrible it is
I'm sure you've already felt it from the picture above
