The NIST 3 Megawatt Quantitative Heat Release Rate Facility - Description and Procedures

September 1, 2004
Author(s)
Rodney A. Bryant, Thomas J. Ohlemiller, Erik L. Johnsson, Anthony P. Hamins, B S. Grove, William F. Guthrie, Alexander Maranghides, George W. Mulholland
The 3 Megawatt Heat Release Rate Facility was developed at NIST as a first step toward having broad capabilities for making quantitative large scale fire measurements. Such capabilities will be used at NIST to validate fire models and to develop sub-grid

Radiative Heat Flux Measurement Uncertainty

October 1, 2003
Author(s)
Rodney A. Bryant, C A. Womeldorf, Erik L. Johnsson, Thomas J. Ohlemiller
As part of an effort to characterize the uncertainties associated with heat flux measurements in a fire environment, an uncertainty analysis example was performed using measurement data from a room corner surface products test that followed the guidelines

Particle Image Velocimetry in Flickering Methane/Air Diffusion Flames

March 25, 2001
Author(s)
G Papadopoulos, Rodney A. Bryant, William M. Pitts
Phase-resolved measurements of the velocity field in acoustically forced, flickering laminar co-flowing methane/air diffusion flames have been made. Identical flames have been studied extensively in the past in order to characterize the effects of the

Thermal Agent Extinguishment of Two Types of Diffusion Flames

March 25, 2001
Author(s)
William M. Pitts, Rodney A. Bryant, Jiann C. Yang
The extinguishment of diffusion flames on two types of burners-an opposed-flow Tsuji burner and an axisymmetric burner with a surrounding coflow-by thermal agents has been investigated. Thermal agents are those that act primarily by extracting heat and
