We used the 2XIIB mirror fusion facility at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory (LLL) to evaluate the fire safety of state-of-the art fusion energy experiments. The primary objective of this evaluation was to ensure the parallel development of fire safety

Flammability testing is largely empirical and consists of many confusions, contradictions and unexplained factors. In order to accomplish reliable fire safety prediction and design, the empirical art of flammability testing has to develop into a quan

In 1975, fire losses in the United States totaled about 0.25% of the GNP, or 4.4 billion dollars. Statistics on distribution of fire types show that 30% involve residential dwellings; 10% industrial, institutional, and educational buildings; 21% are

We have been using an acoustically tuned flame tube to measure fundamental flame speed and flammability envelopes of premixed propane/air and methane/air that contain minute amounts of CF3Br. The flat propagation boundaries produced by this tube allo
