Abstract
This article reports on experimental and theoretical investigations of the lower explosion limits of two‐ and three‐phase mixtures such as gas‐dust, spray‐gas, dust‐spray, and dust‐gas‐spray. The materials used were lycopodium and brown coal as combustible dusts, methane, and hydrogen as combustible gases and ethanol and isopropanol as sprays (liquid solvent). The experiments were performed in the standardized 20‐L spherical explosion chamber where modifications were done to allow the input of solvents and gases. The test protocol was in accordance with the European standard, EN 14034. The experimental results demonstrate significant enhancements in explosion likelihood brought about by gas or spray admixture with dust and vice versa. They also confirm that a hybrid mixture explosion is possible even when both dust and spray or gas concentrations are respectively lower than their minimum explosible concentration (MEC) and lower explosion limit (LEL). For example, the MEC of brown coal decreases from 250 to 60 g/m 3 , 60 and 100 g/m 3 when small amounts of isopropanol spray, methane gas, and hydrogen gas respectively, were added (even though these concentrations of gases and solvents are all below the LEL of the individual substances). Comparisons have been made between the lower explosible limit of the experimental data and classical models such as those developed by Bartknecht, Le Chatelier, and Jiang and coworkers. This research provides safety practitioners with a practical means to characterize material hazards without the need to perform a large number of tests. © 2019 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Process Saf Prog, 1–13: e12045 2019

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
