Mine Fire Detection Under Zero Airflow Conditions

摘要

A series of diesel fuel fire experiments were conducted in the Pittsburgh Research Center's Safety Research Coal Mine (SRCM) to determine products-of-combustion (POC) spread rates along a single entry under zero imposed airflow conditions. Six experiments with an average fire intensity of 330 kw and three experiments with an average fire intensity of 30 kw were conducted in a 180 m long entry which had an average 2 m height and 4 m width.
