摘要

Fire Explosion Investigations involving fuel gas explosions and flash fires in buildings often involve the examination of the complete indoor gas piping system, per NFPA 921i guidance. This often includes the examination of threaded piping connections for integrity. Unfortunately, many connections may degrade during exposure to the heat of fire or may be mechanically damaged from physical forces encountered during structural collapse and explosions. Some connections may appear to be loose, corroded; some may be broke at threads or at other portions of piping. Where portions of the piping system are intact, it is often desired to test them for leakage. This paper summarizes efforts to estimate maximum potential fuel gas leak rates from threaded pipe connections without subjecting the piping components to a pressure test. It has been shown that in some limited cases, piping connections and segments can be eliminated from consideration, where supporting data (from experimental leak tests at typical service pressures) indicate potential leakage is very small. Only common American residential threaded pipe sizes are considered in this paper (e.g. 3/8”, ?”, ?”, 1”), which do not correlate well with standard SI pipe sizes. Also, different considerations should be utilized for other common mechanical connections found in gas piping installations, e.g. flare, compression, etc. This paper is intended to generally apply to building gas systems downstream from gas service connections. However, it may have some application to utility distribution piping where installed above ground.
