eng	Measuring of the BLEVE Internal Processes	In the present context, the term BLEVE is used for a sudden release of liquid with temperature higher than its boiling point from the container at the failure time, with a total collapse of the container. Most theories about the formation of BLEVE are based on evaporation dynamics and pressure changes inside the container. In the available theories, however, there is a gap in clarifying the initiatory process mechanism, which is going on during and immediately after the collapse of the container. The upcoming experimental works are conducted with the intention to unify the notions of this initiatory process. In the text of this contribution are described apparatuses, which were used during researches on BLEVE problems and which became a basis for the proposed apparatus. The proposed apparatus, together with the matrix of the experiment, is mentioned at the end of this contribution.	depressurization, metastable state, blast wave propagation, BLEVE
