Abstract
A static electricity ignition hazard simulation test device for oil products was constructed based on a self-developed charge density table. The influence of various types and contents of impurities on charge generation characteristics of oil products flowing in pipelines was investigated. Test results indicate that the presence of impurities significantly increased the amount of static electricity generated in flowing gasoline within the pipeline. With an increase in impurity content, there was a trend of initially increasing and then decreasing static charge carried by gasoline, with the reduction degree being related to the conductivity of impurities. The presence of impurities elevates the risk of static electricity ignition during oil storage and transportation processes. Measures such as regular inspection or replacement of filters should be implemented to prevent impurity contamination in oil products. Additionally, technologies such as oil product charge density detection should be employed to monitor the charge levels within pipelines.
