An Investigation into the migration of propane in confined spaces / Peter L. Lagus and Richard A. Grot
The scape of propane into an enclosed space poses an obvious safety risk to both nearby inhabitants and the surrounding structure. In this paper, the use of carbon dioxide, CO2 , as a surrogate to study the migration of propane gas within an enclosed environment is proposed. Concepts of tracer gas testing are described along with an explanation of the basic physics regarding the injection of gas into a ventilated enclosed volume
