Comparison of the Fire Suppression Effectiveness of Sodium Bicarbonate Particles and Fine-Water Droplets in Non-Premixed and Premixed Flames

April 1, 2001

Author(s)

Harsha K. Chelliah, A K. Lazzarini, P N. Wanigarathne, Gregory T. Linteris

Two laboratory-scale experimental configurations are used to investigate the fire suppression effectiveness of condensed phase agents, e.g., fine-water droplets (with and without chemical additives) and sodium bicarbonate dry powder. The two flame

Premixed Flame Inhibition by Manganese and Tin Compounds

April 1, 2001

Author(s)

Gregory T. Linteris, Vadim D. Knyazev, Valeri I. Babushok

In this work we presented the first experimental measurements of influence of manganese- and tin-containing compounds (MMT, TMT0 on burning velocity of methane/air flames. We have also developed kinetic models describing the inhibition mechanisms

Role of Particles in Counterflow Diffusion Flames Inhibited by Iron Pentacarbonyl

March 25, 2001

Author(s)

M D. Rumminger, Gregory T. Linteris

Laser light scattering and thermophoretic sampling have been used to investigate particle formation in a methane-air counterflow diffusion flames inhibited by iron pentacarbonyl (Fe(CO)5) added to the fuel or the oxidizer stream. Flame calculations which

Role of Particles in the Inhibition of Premixed Flames by Iron Pentacarbonyl

October 1, 2000

Author(s)

M D. Rumminger, Gregory T. Linteris

Laser light scattering has been used to investigate particle formation in Fe(CO)5-inhibited premixed flames in order to understand the influence of metal and metal oxide condensation on flame inhibition. In premixed CH4-air flames, particles form early in

Marginally Flammable Materials: Burning Velocity of Trans-Dichloroethylene

September 10, 2000

Author(s)

Gregory T. Linteris, Valeri I. Babushok

The overpressure dynamics and explosion hazard of commodity materials under full-scale conditions are often assessed through laboratory measurements of their laminar burning velocity. We present the first measurements of the flame speed of trans-1,2

Marginally Flammable Materials: Burning Velocity of Trans-Dichloroethylene.

Extinction Conditions of Non-Premixed Flames With Fine Droplets of Water and Water-NaOH Solutions

July 20, 2000

Author(s)

A K. Lazzarini, R. H. Krauss, H K. Chelliah, Gregory T. Linteris

Interactions of fine droplets of water and water-NaOH solutions with a steady, laminar counterflow methane-air flame are investigated, both experimentally and numerically. A water atomizer generating a polydisperse distribution of droplet sizes with a mean

Extinction of Counterflow Diffusion Flames with Fine-Water Droplets

Inhibition of Premixed Carbon Monoxide-Hydrogen-Oxygen-Nitrogen Flames by Iron Pentacarbonyl

March 1, 2000

Author(s)

M D. Rumminger, Gregory T. Linteris

This paper presents measurements of the burning velocity of premixed CO-H2-O2-N2 flames with and without the inhibitor Fe(CO)5 over a range of initial H2 and O2 mole fractions. A numerical model is used to simulate the flame inhibition using a gas-phase

Premixed Carbon Monoxide-Nitrous Oxide-Hydrogen Flames: Measured and Calculated Burning Velocities With and Without Fe(CO)5

January 1, 2000

Author(s)

Gregory T. Linteris, M D. Rumminger, Valeri I. Babushok

The burning velocity of premixed carbon monoxide-nitrous oxide flames (background water levels of 5 to 15 ppm) has been determined experimentally for a range of fuel-oxidizer equivalence ratio phi from 0.6 to 3.2, with added nitrogen up to a mole fraction

Flame Inhibition by Ferrocene, Carbon Dioxide, and Trifluoromethane Blends: Synergistic and Antagonistic Effects

October 11, 1999

Author(s)

Gregory T. Linteris, M D. Rumminger

The production of CF3Br has been banned. As a flame inhibitor, iron pentacarbonyl (Fe(CO)5) is about two orders of magnitude more efficient than CF3Br, but it is flammable and highly toxic, and its addition to premixed flames at mole fractions above a few
