In the actual production and operation of enterprises, it is sometimes inevitable that the floating roof will fall to the bottom. This paper calculates the explosion limit of the mixture of oil gas under the floating roof, and confirms that the concentration of oil gas will be within the explosion limit under certain circumstances. Through the monitoring and analysis of the oil-gas mixing space below the floating roof, corresponding control measures are proposed to deal with the potential safety hazards of the floating plate falling to the bottom.
