Paulsen Husted, B, Petersson, P, Lund, I & Holmstedt, G 2009, ' Comparison of PIV and PDA droplet velocity measurement techniques on two high-pressure water mist nozzles ', Fire Safety Journal, vol. 44, no. 8, pp. 1030-1045 . https://doi.org/10.1016/j.firesaf.2009.07.003
The need for reliable measurement of droplet velocities and droplet size has increased with the more widespread use of water mist systems. Two optical measuring techniques have been investigated, Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and phase Doppler ane

This article investigates the importance of using draft curtains to obtain faster sprinkler activation with three different models-two computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models (CFX 4.4 and fire dynamics simulator (FDS) 4.07) and a zone model (Argos)

Intumescent coating acts as a thermal barrier for construction materials during fire hazards. The coating has the ability to expand by a factor of 40 or more during heat exposure. However, due to its fragile consistence, no physical or optical measur

The scaling of results from combustion experiments with four organic substances containing heteroatoms, carried out on four different scales, is discussed. The scales ranged from the micro-scale, using about 2 x 10(-3) kg of the substances, to large

Both numerical simulations and experimental measurements of small scale spontaneous ignition with different biomass fuels have been performed. In the experiments, temperature history was monitored at five different locations inside the fuel bed. The

Equivalence ratios have been determined with two different techniques. The first, called the phi-meter, is a modification of the phi-meter earlier presented by Babrauskas et al. [1], while the other utilises a mass spectrometer as the analysing instr

Water demand for manual fire suppression is analyzed. The Fire Point Theory is validated concerning fuel surface cooling effects and the critical water flow rate is determined and compared with previous investigations. It is shown that the critical f

A manikin test probe has been developed to simulate the thermal behaviour of human skin when exposed to thermal conditions likely to occur in fires. The threshold for second-degree burn injuries is evaluated from the temperature readings using a dama

The aim of this study is to investigate whether current statistics can quantify the benefits of fire brigades. A detailed investigation by the London Fire Brigade of most fires in the greater London area has been underway since 1994. The present stud
