The program and technique of testing vessels. Technical survey

They present an increased danger, since the medium in them is under an excess pressure exceeding 0.7 atm. Most often they explode when the permissible pressure is exceeded. All devices operating under increased pressure after manufacture and installation undergo an appropriate test and hydraulic tests. At visual inspection pay attention to tightness of seams, integrity of welded, riveted, bolted connections, absence of corrosion. Inspection of devices is carried out at least once in 4 years. Hydraulic testing is performed by filling the device with water at a pressure of 1.25-1.5 times the working pressure and holding for 10-30 minutes. At the same time pay attention to the appearance of deformations, drips and drops of water on the outer part of the apparatus. It is desirable to pay attention to the pressure loss in the apparatus by the manometer. Hydraulic tests are conducted at least once every 8 years. After installation and testing of the apparatus, which are carried out in the presence of the state supervision, the registration number, the permissible pressure, the date of the subsequent test are applied to the apparatus with the paint. The device must be equipped with a manometer, shut-off valves. Place such devices on the street or in separate buildings.

To ensure the stable and safe operation of pressure vessels, they are subjected to a technical examination: internal inspection and hydraulic testing before commissioning, periodically during operation and ahead of schedule. Vessels registered in the supervisory bodies are checked by the boiler inspector. If the design features of the vessel do not allow for an internal inspection, it is replaced by a hydraulic test, test pressure and inspection in accessible locations. If, however, the hydraulic test proves impossible (say, because of the large stresses caused by the weight of the water in the foundation, between the floor slabs or the vessel itself, the presence inside the vessel of the liner, which prevents filling with water, the difficulty of removing water, etc.), it is permitted to produce pneumatic test (air or inert gas) at the same test pressure. In this case, the pneumatic test (compressed air) is permitted only if satisfactory results are obtained through thorough internal inspection, checking the strength of the vessel by calculation, and carrying out certain safety measures under strict control (taking the valve out of the room where the vessel is being tested, the valve on the filling pipe from the pressure source and pressure gauge , the removal of people to safe places during the test of the vessel trial pressure, etc.). Under the test pressure, the vessel is 5 minutes, after which the pressure is gradually reduced to the working pressure, the vessel is inspected, the density of its seams and detachable joints is checked with soap solution or other effective method. Pressurization of a pressure vessel during a pneumatic test is dangerous and prohibited.

It is permitted not to perform a hydraulic test when technical inspection of new vessels is carried out, if 12 months have not passed since the time of the test carried out at the factory, if they were not damaged during transportation and installation, and they were assembled without welding or soldering elements operating under the pressure.

The rules established that the vessels that are in service and registered with the Gosgortekhnadzor bodies are subject to periodic technical examination by the inspector, including: an internal examination to determine the condition of the internal and external surfaces and the effect of the environment on the vessel walls - at least once every 4 years; hydraulic test with preliminary internal inspection - at least once every 8 years, while it is allowed to use water or other non-corrosive, non-toxic, non-explosive, non-viscous liquids.

Early technical inspection of vessels is necessary after reconstruction and repair with the use of welding or soldering of individual parts working under pressure; if the vessel was inactive for more than 1 year (before the start-up, except for cases of warehouse conservation, in which the examination of the vessels is mandatory before commissioning for more than 3 years); if the vessel has been dismantled and installed in a new location; before applying a protective coating to the vessel walls (if it is produced by its owner); if an early survey is necessary at the discretion of the inspector, the supervisor or the person responsible for the condition and safe operation of the vessel. Periodic and extraordinary technical examination of vessels is performed by the Inspector of the Bolognadzor necessarily in the presence of the employee of the bureau (department) for supervision or another certified engineering and technical worker appointed by the administration, as well as the person responsible for the safe operation of these facilities. In this case, the administration of the enterprise must notify the inspector in advance not less than 10 days in advance of the readiness of the vessel to be inspected. In the event that the inspector for any reason does not appear at the appointed time, the administration has the right to appoint a commission from the experienced, certified specialists for carrying out a technical survey by order of the enterprise. Its results, as well as the date of the next survey, are entered in the passport. A copy of the record is sent to the local Gosgortekhnadzor body no later than 5 days later. The vessel allowed to work must be inspected no later than in 12 months. The administration of the enterprise, in addition to inspections of the inspector, conducts:

internal inspection and hydraulic testing before commissioning of all newly installed vessels, except for those inspected by the inspector;

internal inspection of all registered. and unregistered vessels at least every 2 years, with the exception of vessels that operate in an environment that causes corrosion of the metal and must be inspected internally at least 12 months in advance.

Internal inspection of vessels included in systems with a continuously operating process, with a non-corrosive working environment, which can not be stopped due to production conditions, may be combined with major repairs or replacement of the catalyst, but at least once every 4 years. For internal examinations of vessels, all defects that reduce their strength should be identified and eliminated;

periodic inspection of vessels in working order;

hydraulic test with preliminary internal inspection of vessels not registered in supervisory bodies - at least once every 8 years; early technical inspection of unregistered vessels. When preparing for inspections and hydraulic tests, the vessel should be cooled (warmed up), freed from the filling working medium, disconnected by plugs from all pipelines connecting it with pressure sources or other vessels, cleaned of metal. Lining, insulation and other protection of the surfaces of the vessel are partially or completely removed when there are signs of defects in the metal of the vessel under the protective coating, for example: leakage of linings, gummies in the gummed layer, traces of insulation leakage, etc. All the valves are thoroughly cleaned before the hydraulic test and rubs, and covers, hatches, etc. are installed firmly and tightly, eliminating the possibility of leaks.

Hazardous areas of equipment.

Dangerous area- this is the space in which action on the working dangerous and (or) harmful production factor is possible. The danger is localized in the space around the moving elements: the cutting tools processedparts, faceplates, serrated,belt and chain gears, work tables of machine tools, conveyors, movable hoisting-and-transport machines, loads, etc. A special danger is created in cases when it is possible to capture clothing or hair working with moving parts of equipment.

The presence of a hazardous zone can be caused by the danger of electric shock, exposure to thermal, electromagnetic and ionizing radiations of noise, vibration, ultrasound, harmful vapors and dust gases, the possibility of traumatizing the material of the workpiece and tool by the departing particles during machining, or breakage.

The dimensions of the danger zone in space can be constant (the zone between the belt and the pulley, the zone between the rolls, etc.) and the variables (field of rolling mills, cutting zone when changing the mode and processing nature, changing the cutting tool, etc.).

When designing and operating technological equipment, it is necessary to provide for the use of devices that either exclude the possibility of human contact with a hazardous area or reduce the danger of contact (worker protection equipment). The means of protection of workers by the nature of their application are divided into two categories: collective and individual.

The means of collective protection, depending on the purpose, are divided into the following classes: normalization of the air environment of industrial premises and workplaces, normalization of lighting of industrial premises and workplaces, protection against ionizing radiation, infrared radiation, ultraviolet radiation, electromagnetic radiation, magnetic and electric fields, radiation optical quantum generators, noise, vibration, ultrasound, electric shock, electrostatic charges, from increased

Individual protective equipment, depending on the purpose, is divided into the following classes: insulating suits, respiratory protective equipment, special clothing, special footwear, hand protection, head, face, eyes, hearing protection, fall protection and other similar means, protective dermatological facilities.

All the means of collective protection of workers working in the machine-building industry can be divided into protective, safety, blocking, signaling, and also remote control systems for machines and special ones. Each of the listed subclasses, as will be shown below, has several species and subspecies. The general requirements for the means of protection are: the creation of the most favorable for the human body relationships with the external environment and the provision of optimal conditions for work; high degree of protective effectiveness; accounting for individual features of equipment, tools, devices or technological processes; reliability, durability, convenience of servicing machines and mechanisms, taking into account the recommendations of technical aesthetics.

44. Types of combustion, the mechanisms of combustion processes.

Combustionis a chemical reaction of oxidation, accompanied by the release of heat and light. The occurrence of combustion requires three factors: a combustible substance, an oxidizer (usually oxygen of the air) and a source of ignition (impulse). Oxidizing agent can be not only oxygen, but also chlorine, fluorine, bromine, iodine, oxides of nitrogen, etc.

Depending on the properties of the combustible mixture, combustion is homogeneous and heterogeneous. In homogeneous combustion, the starting materials have the same aggregate state (for example, combustion of gases). Combustion of solid and liquid combustible substances is heterogeneous. -

Combustion is also differentiated in terms of flame propagation velocity and, depending on this parameter, it can be deflagration (of the order of tens of meters per second), explosive (of the order of hundreds of meters per second) and detonation (about thousand meters per second). Fires are characterized by deflagration combustion.

Depending on the ratio of fuel and oxidizer, the processes of combustion of poor and rich combustible mixtures are distinguished. The poormixtures containing an oxidizer in excess are called. Their combustion is limited by the content of the fuel component. TO richinclude mixtures with a fuel content above the stoichiometric ratio of the components. Combustion of such mixtures is limited by the content of the oxidant. The occurrence of combustion is associated with the mandatory self-acceleration of the reaction in the system. There are three main types of self-accelerating chemical reaction in combustion: thermal, chain and combined - chain-thermal. The thermal mechanism of acceleration is associated with the exothermicity of the oxidation process and the increase in the rate of chemical reaction with an increase in temperature under the condition of accumulation of heat in the reacting system.

Chain acceleration of the reaction is associated with the catalysis of chemical transformations, carried out by intermediate products of transformations, which have a special chemical activity and are called active centers. In accordance with the chain theory of the chemical, the process is not by direct interaction of the original molecules, but with the help of fragments formed during the decay of these molecules (radicals, atomic particles).

The actual combustion processes are carried out, as a rule, by a combined chain-thermal mechanism. The process of combustion is divided into several types.

Flash- rapid combustion of the combustible mixture, not accompanied by the formation of compressed gases.

Fire- occurrence of burning iodine by exposure to an ignition source.

Ignition- fire, accompanied by the appearance of a flame.

Spontaneous combustion- the phenomenon of a sharp increase in the rate of exothermic reactions, leading to the burning of a substance (material, mixture) in the absence of an ignition source. The essence and differences between the processes of ignition and spontaneous combustion are explained below.

Self-ignition- spontaneous combustion, accompanied by the appearance of a flame.

Explosion- extremely fast chemical (explosive) transformation, accompanied by the release of energy and the formation of compressed gases capable of producing mechanical work. The combustion of a substance or material can occur at an ambient temperature below the autoignition temperature. This possibility is due to the propensity of substances or materials to oxidation and the conditions of accumulation in them of heat released during oxidation, which can lead to spontaneous combustion. Thus, the occurrence of combustion of substances and materials under the influence of thermal pulses with a temperature above the ignition temperature (or spontaneous combustion) is characterized as ignition, and occurrence. Combustion at temperatures below the autoignition temperature refers to the process of self-ignition. Depending on the pulse, the processes of spontaneous combustion are subdivided into thermal, microbiological and chemical processes.

When evaluating the fire hazard of substances and materials, their aggregate state must be taken into account. Since combustion, as a rule, occurs in a gaseous medium, it is necessary to take into account the conditions under which a sufficient amount of gaseous combustible products is formed for the fire hazard. The main indicators of fire hazard, determining the critical conditions for the occurrence and development of the combustion process, are the autoignition temperature and the concentration limits of ignition.

The autoignition temperature characterizes the minimum temperature of a substance or material at which a rapid increase in the rate of exothermic reactions occurs, resulting in the appearance of a fiery combustion. The minimum concentration of combustible gases and vapors in the air, at which they are able to ignite and spread the flame, is called lower concentration limit of ignition;the maximum concentration of combustible gases and vapors, at which the spread of a flame is still possible, is called the upper concentration limit of ignition.The area of ​​compositions and mixtures of combustible gases and vapors with air lying between the lower and upper limits of ignition is called the ignition region.

Concentration limits of ignition are not constant and depend on a number of factors. The greatest influence on ignition limits is the power of the source of ignition, the admixture of inert gases and vapors, the temperature and pressure of the combustible mixture.

Flash pointcalled the lowest (in the conditions of special tests) temperature of a combustible substance, in which vapors and gases are formed above the surface, capable of flashing in the air from the ignition source, but the rate of their formation is still insufficient for subsequent combustion. Using this characteristic, all combustible fluids can be divided into two classes according to fire danger: the first include liquids with a flash-point up to 61 ° C (gasoline, ethyl alcohol, acetone, sulfuric ether, nitro-enamels, etc.), they are called flammable liquids (LVS); to the second - liquids with a flash-point above 61 ° C (oil, mazut, formalin, etc.), they are called combustible liquids.

Ignition temperature- the temperature of the combustible substance at which it emits combustible vapors and gases at such a rate that after ignition from the ignition source a steady burning occurs.

Temperature limits of ignition- temperatures at which saturated vapors of matter form in the given oxidizing medium concentrations equal to the lower and upper concentration limits of liquid ignition respectively.

Vessels having a protective coating or insulation are subjected to a hydraulic test before coating is applied. Hydraulic testing of vessels, with the exception of castings, must be carried out by test pressure. Applied. water with a temperature of at least 5 ° C and not above 40 ° C. The test pressure shall be controlled by two pressure gauges. After exposure to the test pressure, the pressure is reduced to the design pressure at which the external surface of the vessel, all its detachable and welded joints, is inspected. The vessel is considered to have withstood a hydraulic test if it is not found: - leaks, cracks, tears, sweats in welded joints and on the base metal; - leaks in plug-in connections; - visible residual deformations, pressure drop on the manometer. The hydraulic test may be replaced by a pneumatic test provided that this test is controlled by the acoustic emission method. Pneumatic testing    must be carried out by instruction with compressed air or an inert gas. Time of exposure of the vessel under test pressure is established by the developer of the project, but should be at least 5 minutes. Then, the pressure in the test vessel must be reduced to the design pressure and the vessel inspected. The test results are entered in the vessel's passport.
