Fire Properties of Bed Mattresses Focusing on the Fire Growth Rate and Flame Height. [PDF]
Materials (Basel), 2022 Bed mattresses are rated as products to cause a fire hazard because of their very high heat release rate among indoor combustibles. In this study, fire growth rate and flame height were measured through a series of combustion experiments on a full scale ...

Horizontal flame spread over thin solids in reduced buoyancy environments
, 2022 A Horizontal Channel Apparatus (HCA) has been employed to investigate opposed flame spread over solid fuels in reduced buoyancy environments, which would be encountered at the diminished gravitational levels on extraterrestrial surfaces (e.g., the ...

An Experimental Investigation of Flame Spreading from Bluff Body Flameholders [PDF]
, 1958 Flame spreading from 1/16 to l inch circular cylinder flame holders in two-dimensional flow was studied experimentally. Combustion wake widths were determined by use of spark Schlieren photographs at distances up to 36 inches downstream of the flame ...

Flame height: Effect of one- and two-sided boundary surfaces [PDF]
, 2021 Theory suggests that fires placed flush to one- and two-sided boundary surfaces will have an increase in flame height independent of fuel used and size of the fire.

, 2023 This paper investigates a predictive model that considers the impact of stretch on the dynamic response of laminar premixed conical and V- flames; the flame stretch consists of two components: the flame curvature and flow strain. The steady and perturbed

An Experimental Study of Pool Fire Characteristics under the Effects of Cross Winds and Baffles
Fire, 2023 The pool fires that occur behind obstructions in a ventilated environment are very different from other wind-blown pool fires. The pool fire formed by fuel leakage in an engine nacelle is a typical example of a pool fire influenced by cross winds and ...

Research on the Combustion Characteristics of Coal Piles and the Fire Risks of Closed Coal Bunkers
Fire, 2023 Closed coal bunkers emerged as a novel form of coal storage for coal-fired power stations. Nevertheless, heat builds continually in the storage process because of the constant oxidation of coal and combined with the impact of a confined coal bunker ...

Combined effects of width and moisture content on upward flame spread over cotton fabrics
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2019 Present work experimentally investigates the combined effects of width and moisture on the upward flame characteristics over cotton fabrics, using 0.245 mm thick and 1500 mm tall samples with 5 different widths (40 mm, 60 mm, 80 mm, 100 mm, 120 mm) and 5
