In process industries with extraordinary fire and explosion hazards, deluge systems are installed to reduce the fire risk. While the benefits of deluge in case of fire have been known for a long time, the effects on the explosion risk have been harder to predict. The complicated physics and experimental difficulties attached to accidental gas explosions put strict limits on the ability to model and quantify explosion risk. Decisions on when and how deluge should be used as an explosion risk reduction measure are complex and requires a solid decision support.
