More Information
Summary:Explosion suppresant container, for use in suppression of deflagrative explosions and other like events involving combustion associated with rapidly moving gases, comprising a container which, in use, contains suppressant, an outlet through which suppressant can exit the container progressively and be atomised into droplets and an inlet thorugh which air can enter the container and the shape of said container being such that, in use, the pressure of the explosion wind in the region of the outlet is less than that in the region of the inlet so that suppressant is driven out of the outlet into the explosion wind.
