  <abstract>Dust explosions pose a serious risk to public safety in sectors that deal with flammable  materials, such as rice flour, and can have catastrophic consequences, including property  damage, injuries, and fatalities. The dispersion properties of rice flour at different  concentrations (250, 500, 750, and 1000 g/m³) in a 20L spherical explosion chamber are  examined in this work using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) models. In order to  assess the impact of concentration on dust dispersion and its consequences for explosion  hazards, the study focusses on several important parameters, such as static pressure,  turbulence kinetic energy (TKE), vector velocity, and particle tracks. The results show  that increasing concentrations of dust have a significant impact on the flow dynamics in  the chamber. Turbulence kinetic energy peaks at higher concentrations, resulting in  chaotic flow dynamics and uneven particle dispersion. Vector velocity patterns at higher  concentrations show irregular and overlapping flow paths, with stagnation zones forming  where particles accumulate. Particle tracks further demonstrate the effects of increased  clustering and non-uniform dispersion, which develop high-density regions prone to  ignition. Static pressure gradients become more noticeable at higher concentrations (750  g/m³ and 1000 g/m³). On the other hand, the dust shows finer velocity patterns, less  turbulence, and less clustering at lower concentrations (250 g/m³ and 500 g/m³). There is  less chance of an explosion or ignition under these circumstances. The study emphasises  how crucial it is to maintain ideal dust concentration and flow conditions in order to  successfully reduce the risk of explosions. The research helps to create safer industrial  processes and better explosion prevention techniques by offering a thorough analytical  approach to analyse dust dispersion behaviour.</abstract>
