Incipient Fires—Definition, Detection and Extinguishment by Laypersons

Fire and Materials, Volume 50, Issue 1, Page 3-10, January/February 2026.
ABSTRACT The earlier a fire is noticed, the less developed it is and the easier it can be prevented respectively stopped, even by laypersons. Within the research project ‘TEBRAS’ the incipient phase of fires was investigated in detail. In the course of the project, it became apparent that the definition of what exactly the incipient phase of a fire ...

Numerical Modeling of Direct Current Plasma Versus Natural Gas‐Heated Steelmaking Ladles: Validation via Full‐Scale Industrial Measurements

steel research international, Volume 96, Issue 8, August 2025.
This study explores using DC plasma torches with nitrogen as a carrier gas for preheating large steelmaking ladles. Numerical models simulate ladles preheated by 0.7 and 1.5 MW plasma torches, compared to natural gas heating. Results show plasma torches achieve significantly higher bottom temperatures, validated by industrial measurements on full‐sized
