Calculation of The LFL and UFL of Mixtures

The document discusses calculating the lower flammable limit (LFL) and upper flammable limit (UFL) of gas-vapor mixtures using the Le Chatelier rule. It provides equations that calculate the LFLmix and UFLmix of a mixture as the inverse of the sum of the mole fractions of each component multiplied by its individual LFL or UFL, with the LFL and UFL defined as the lower and upper volume percentages of each component in a fuel-air mixture.

Calculation of the LFL and UFL of Mixtures

Calculate the LFL and UFL of gasvapor mixtures,


using the Le Chatelier rule (Crowl and Louvar 1990).
The LFL and UFL of a mixture can be calculated by the following
equations:
LFLmix =
1
------------
( yi LFL i )
UFLmix =
1
------------
( yi UFL i )
where LFLi is the lower flammable limit for component i in volume percent
of component i in fuel and air; UFLi is the upper flammable limit for component
i in volume percent of component i in fuel and air; and yi is the
mole fraction of component i on a combustibles only basis.
