Summary

Experimental studies were carried out to examine the explosion limits of the mixtures R141b-air and dimethylether-air. The explosion limits were determined using a capacitance spark ignition apparatus consisting of an explosion chamber of 60 mm in diameter. The temperature of the gas mixture was set to 313 K, and pressures ranged from 0.1 to 0.5 megapascals. Lower explosion limits of these mixtures at atmospheric pressure were found to be 9.4 and 3.8 vol% and upper explosion limits were 15.5 and 18.8 vol%, respectively. These inflammable regions spread slightly with increasing pressure. Minimum electric energy under atmospheric pressure required to ignite these mixtures is given.
