Perfluorohexanone for Clean Fire Suppression: Mechanisms, System Design, Applications, and Future Directions

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Driven by halon and high GWP agent phase out, perfluorohexanone is increasingly deployed in enclosures such as data centers, marine machinery spaces, and industrial process lines. This review summarizes application performance, discharge and distribution design, material compatibility, and byproduct control and maps practical gaps for large volume and ...

Fire Testing and Hazard Assessment for Flame Retardant Polymer Composites

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Flame retardant polymer composites are now being evaluated with more than pass or fail flammability tests. Heat release, smoke, toxicity, and system‐level behavior are receiving more attention, and multi‐scale methods are being used to describe fire hazard under more realistic conditions.

Recognition of Spatiotemporal Feature Images of Zero‐Sequence Voltage for Single‐Phase High‐Impedance Ground Faults Under Complex Conditions

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diagnosing high‐impedance ground faults (HIGFs) in distribution networks is extremely challenging because high transition resistance significantly reduces electrical signal strength and unpredictable initial fault phase angles coupled with asymmetric voltage disturbances often lead to misclassification.

A Unified Reduced Model for Auto-Ignition and Combustion in Premixed Systems

open access: yesEurasian Chemico-Technological Journal, 2014
In this paper, two complementary chemistry model reduction methods for combustion simulations are further developed and combined. A progress variable model (PVM), which follows the idea of trajectory generated manifolds (TGLDM), is tailored for ...

Auto-ignition Characteristics of Selected Ionic Liquids

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2014
AbstractWhile being compared with commonly used organic solvents, ionic liquids are known of their low volatility. Thus they are usually considered to be green solvents to replace so far used organic solvent to eliminate the pollution of volatile organic compounds.

COMMON SENSE LAW: Making Right/s in the Liberal City

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article, co‐authored by encampment and university scholars, is concerned with how homeless persons challenge rightlessness. We do so by advancing a conceptual framework of common sense law, arguing that such contestations take place not only in courtrooms but also in the lived spaces of homelessness.

Ignition characteristics of H2-air mixtures with hot particles

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
Thermal ignition of fuel-air mixtures due to hot particles can pose security risks and be hazardous under various circumstances, leading to their auto-ignition. The ignition characteristics of hydrogen-air mixtures with hot particles were investigated by

The Training Complex: Shattering of the Coniunctio, Boundary Violation, and Sibling Turbulence on the Horizontal Plane

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores what is happening, for a trainee, when an ethical boundary violation occurs by the analyst with a fellow peer in training. I am approaching this through the Jungian concept of the alchemical vas as I attempt to make meaning of a catastrophic collapse of the analytic work.
