"BLEVE" is an acronym for "Boiling Liquid Evaporating Vapor Explosion" and involves a situation where a liquid in a container -- often a compressed liquid such are propane -- suddenly fails, resulting in a rapid expansion of the liquid into a vapor, releasing energy that is capable of hurtling parts of the tank or other nearby objects for considerable distances. If an ignition source is present and the vapor is flammable, a sudden deflagration (fire) or explosion may occur, further increasing the energy of the sudden vapor release, and causing the creation of a fireball that releases a sudden burst of radiant (heat) energy. The largest documented BLEVE explosions (usually involving propane or similar substances) have resulted in numerous deaths, some at great distances from the initial explosion (hundreds of feet or more) from either propulsion of debris, exposure to radiant heat, or a combination of both. There is a Wikipedia article with the title "BLEVE."

What is noise from an explosion called?
The noise that occurs as the result of an explosion is known as a shock wave, or concussion, and this happens due to the rapid expansion of gasses.
How do you pronouce bleve?
The word bleve does not appear in the dictionary. There is BLEVE which stands for Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion. Some people abbreviate the word believe with bleve.
What is BLEVE?
BLEVE is an acronym for Boiling Liquid Evaporating Vapor Explosion. Usually this is regarding LPG or Liquid Propane Gas.
What does the BLEVE acronym mean?
BLEVE stands for "Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion" which results from the rupturing of a vessel containing a pressurized liquid above it's boiling point.
How does boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion relate to the use of spherical storage tanks?
A Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion (BLEVE) occurs when a pressurized liquid is heated and vaporizes rapidly, leading to a violent explosion if the containment fails. Spherical storage tanks are often used to minimize the risk of BLEVE because their shape allows for uniform distribution of stress and pressure, enhancing structural integrity. Additionally, their design minimizes the surface area exposed to heat, which can help delay the onset of a BLEVE. Properly designed and maintained spherical tanks also facilitate safer storage of volatile liquids, reducing the likelihood of catastrophic failures.

How much explosive force is in a 20 pound propane tank?
A propane tank by itself has no explosive force. Propane will only burn when mixed with oxygen. However you can create what they call a BLEVE from a propane tank (boiling liquid expanding vapor explosion). Basically you would heat up the propane tank (example house on fire, etc) and a reaction would occur causeing the tank to burst. There are other ways to do it but it gets really technical. Research BLEVE and you will fand many references about blast effects and fireball radius, frag radius etc. The following link gives you safe separation distances: http://me.queensu.ca/people/birk/research/thermalHazards/bleve/safeDistance.php
