Study on the effect of space tightness on the inerting effect of liquid CO2 in pottery jar liquor warehouses by Xueming Li, Wei Wan, Gang Bai, Youkai Zhao, Xunxian Shi, Jinsong Zhu

“…Pottery jar liquor warehouse was selected as the research subject, numerical simulation was utilized to study the spatial inerting and CO2 migration and distribution under different space tightness degrees and injection flow rates. The results revealed that after injection into the space, CO2 distributed like an “umbrella”, the CO2 protective layer undergoes a dynamic process of concentration increase and thickness enhancement, achieving upward accumulation and migration of the inert medium protective layer. …”
