Modeling Solid Sample Burning With FDS

June 1, 2005

Gregory T. Linteris, L W. Gewuerz, Kevin B. McGrattan, Glenn P. Forney
Black PMMA was burned in the cone calorimeter in two orientations (horizontal and vertical), at imposed radiant heat fluxes of (0, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 75) kW/m2, and the visual appearance, flame size, heat release rate, and mass loss rate were recorded

Flame Extinguishment in a Cup-Burner Apparatus

March 1, 2005
Author(s)
F Takahashi, Gregory T. Linteris, V Katta
Unsteady extinguishment phenomena of laminar methane-air co-flow diffusion flames formed in a cup-burner apparatus at normal earth gravity have been studied experimentally and computationally. A gaseous fire-extinguishing agent (CO 2, N 2, He, Ar, or CF 3H

Extinguishment of Cup-Burner Flames in Low Gravity

January 1, 2005
Author(s)
F Takahashi, Gregory T. Linteris, V Katta
The effects of oxidizer stream velocity and oxygen concentration, as well as gravity and pressure, on the extinguishment limits of laminar co-flow diffusion flames of methane, formed in a cup-burner apparatus, have been studied experimentally and

Limits to the Effectiveness of Metal-Containing Fire Suppressants

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Gregory T. Linteris
This report reviews the literature on metal inhibition of flames and identifies metal species with potential as fire suppressant additives. To provide a basis for discussion, the detailed mechanism of inhibition of iron is reviewed, and the reasons for its

Suppression of Cup-Burner Flames Using Carbon Dioxide in Microgravity

April 1, 2004
Author(s)
V Katta, F Takahashi, Gregory T. Linteris
Carbon dioxide extinguishes flames through dilution process. The extinction characteristics of CO2 were previously studied using a cup-burner flame under normal-gravity conditions. As the diffusion flames behave differently in microgravity compared to
