Abstract Accidents involving natural gas leakage and dispersion pose a significant
threat to human life and property. This threat is especially relevant at the street
intersection at which dense buildings, heavy traffic flow, and complex underground pipe
networks meet. Scholars have conducted numerous studies on gas leakage and dispersion,
but investigations of natural gas leakage and dispersion at the street intersection of a
building group are not in-depth. In this paper, we presented a three-dimensional (3D)
physical model based on the Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) methodology to study
the natural gas leakage and dispersion at the street intersection of a building… More >
