# India Launches Indigenous AI Industrial-Safety Platform ‘Agnikawach’
### Why in News?
**Agnikawach**, an indigenous AI-integrated platform for **industrial process-safety and consequence modelling**, was launched in India.
### Key Details
- The platform combines **AI, GPU computing, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and risk modelling** to simulate industrial accidents.
- It models hazards including **jet fire, pool fire, flash fire, explosions, BLEVE/fireball, toxic dispersion, cryogenic releases and structural domino effects**.
- **CFD** uses numerical methods to simulate fluid and gas flows, helping predict how leaks, fire or toxic clouds may spread.
- A **BLEVE** is an explosion caused when a pressurised vessel containing liquid above its boiling point ruptures.
- The platform is intended for hazardous industries such as **green hydrogen, ammonia, oil and gas, LNG, petrochemicals, nuclear and defence**.
### Exam Connect
- **Agnikawach** → AI-based industrial process-safety platform
- **CFD** → numerical simulation of fluid flow
- **BLEVE** → Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapour Explosion
