Evaluation of burning rate in microgravity based on the fuel regression, flame area, and spread rate

open access: yesCombustion and Flame, 2022
Abstract The fuel burning rate and heat-release rate (HRR) play key roles in determining the fire intensity and hazard. On Earth, the burning rate of a condensed fuel is normally measured by the mass loss, but in microgravity, the impossibility of measuring the weight loss with a balance makes the measurement of burning rate challenging.

Lateral Flame Spread Over Thermally Thin Fuels: Theoretical Prediction of Flame Spread Rate and Experimental Validation

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract Flame spread over solid fuel is a fundamental problem in fire safety science. Although it has been studied in different orientations – downward, upward, horizontal, and lateral – closed-form formula for predicting the flame spread rate is only available for opposed-flow configuration and has been experimentally verified in ...

Effect of copper core diameter on heat transfer and horizontal flame spread behaviors over electrical wire

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021
The laboratory polyethylene wire with different core diameters of 3 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm, 7 mm, 8 mm, 10 mm and 12 mm was used to study the flame spread characteristics. The flame spread could be divided into initial oscillation stage, stable oscillation stage
