A flame arrester, has a housing having an inlet and an outlet, and a flame retardant core arranged within the housing. Arranged within the flame arrester housing between the flame retardant core and the inlet is a flame arresting mechanism for preventing flames from directly impacting a central zone of the flame retardant core. The flame arresting mechanism may include a flame retardant barrel and a flame retardant plate assembly disposed within the flame arrester housing.

A flame arrestor which will generally comprise two hollow sections, each of which includes a plurality of hollow channels, and with a throat between them which is open. This open portion can be used to induce turbulent flow into fluid which is has a laminar flow through the channels.

A flame front in a gas pipeline is extinguished by introducing an extinguishing agent at an overpressure at an extinguishing zone of the pipeline. Using an overpressure provides a better and finer atomization of the extinguishing agent, and permits a greater amount of the extinguishing agent to be provided in the extinguishing zone per unit time. In addition, a sealing fluid is introduced at sealing zone of the pipeline. Gas flowing through the pipeline must flow through the sealing fluid in the sealing zone. Preferably, movement of a flame front from one side of the sealing zone to the other side of the sealing zone is prevented or reduced by the sealing fluid.

A method of custom manufacturing a flame arrestor assembly configured to extinguish a flame propagating therethrough. The method includes creating a customized flame cell using an additive manufacturing technique, which generally includes forming a body and forming one or more channels in the body. The one or more channels define a flow path configured to transfer heat from a flame front propagating through the flow path to the body. The method also includes providing a housing, and securely arranging the flame cell within the housing.

The present invention belongs to the field of flame arresters, and discloses a buffered wall flow multi-channels flame arrester. The flame arrester comprises a buffering and splitting cover and a Z-type wall flow multi-channels flame arresting core, wherein the buffering and splitting cover has a round-bottom plain-top cylindrical shape or hemispherical shape, with pinholes distributed in the cover surface, and channels are arranged inside the Z-type wall flow multi-channels flame arresting core. In every two adjacent channels, the inlet of one channel is blocked, and the outlet of the other channel is blocked, and in the height direction in the central cross section of the flame arresting core, pinholes are arranged in the wall surfaces between adjacent channels, and adjacent upper and lower channels constitute a fluid channel.
