Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) Confined explosion Boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion (BLEVE) Jet-fire Pool-fire Trinitrotoluene (TNT) model Geographical Information System (GIS) Link to publisher's homepage at http://www.myiem.org.my/ A preliminary risk analysis on the impact of LPG storage explosion to the community in the Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) is studied. This paper is aimed to evaluate the physical effects of the release of hazardous substances or energy following various possible accidental events. This paper focuses on the final events that are: confined explosion fireball/ boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion (BLEVE), jet-fire and pool-fire. Several physical models including Trinitrotoluene (TNT) model are used to evaluate each possible accident and the calculated results of the affected area and distance are also shown. 2011-08-10T07:42:45Z 2011-08-10T07:42:45Z 2004-03 Article The Journal of the Institution of Engineers, Malaysia, vol. 65(1/2), 2004, pages 43-49 0126-513X http://myiem.org.my/content/iem_journal_2004-175.aspx http://hdl.handle.net/123456789/13416 en The Institution of Engineers, Malaysia
