This experimental study was performed to investigate the flow characteristics in the pipe of the blow-down system. When a liquid CO2container is found to lose mechanical integrity, possibly by material or mechanical defects, the liquid inventory should be drained out rapidly for the purpose of safety by the so-called blow-down process. In the course of the blow-down, the liquid CO2experiences the state change into a two-phase mixture of vapor and solid before releasing into atmosphere. The release rate of blow-down is affected by the characteristics of phase change., Temperature and pressure was measured in capillary tube passages representing blow-down flow lines and the location of phase change was inferred with the measured data. The experimental result shows that phase change occurs just before CO2flow is exposed to ambient air for any tube length of this study.
