Book excerpt: Excerpt from Particle Image Velocimetry Measurements of Buoyancy Inducted Flow Through a Doorway: Nistir 7252 Fires release large amounts Of energy. This energy, mostly in the form Of heat, raises the temperature Of the surrounding gases, causing them to expand. In the case Of a fire within an enclosure, the hot gas will fill the top Of an enclosure and increase the pressure within the enclosure, therefore causing gas to move out Of the enclosure through the available Openings. At the same time, the buoyant hot gases that rise to the top Of the enclosure induce a low pressure region at the floor Of an enclosure into which ambient gases will flow. The fire acts as a pump, pulling ambient air in while pushing combustion products mixed with air out. The Openings which the gases flow through are referred to as vents and typically are doorways and windows. Quantifying the ventilation available to an enclosure fire is an important step to understanding fire behavior. The fresh air that moves into an enclosure provides the necessary oxygen to feed the fire while also serving to moderate the temperature Of the compartment, depending on the stage Of the fire growth. The hot fire gases that move out Of an enclosure transfer heat and combustion products from the localized point Of the fire to remote locations within a built structure. Ventilation therefore can play two important roles in fire spread, 1) to reduce the hazard by moderating the enclosure temperature and 2) to increase the hazard by transferring the heat, smoke and toxic gases to other locations Of a built structure.

Download or read book Measurements with Particle Image Velocimetry on Fully Developed Turbulent Pipe Flow at Low Reynolds Number written by J. Westerweel and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measurements with particle image velocimetry were carried out in fully developed turbulent pipe flow at a Reynolds number of 5,277. Data were obtained in a plane through the centerline of the pipe, across the full diameter. Statistical properties of the flow obtained by ensemble averaging of the data along the axial direction were in good agreement with direct numerical simulation. Maps of instantaneous tangential vorticity reveal spatial structures near the pipe wall that resemble coherent flow structures predicted by direct numerical simulation. (Author).

Download or read book Buoyancy Driven Flows written by Eric P. Chassignet and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-05 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buoyancy is one of the main forces driving flows on our planet, especially in the oceans and atmosphere. These flows range from buoyant coastal currents to dense overflows in the ocean, and from avalanches to volcanic pyroclastic flows on the Earth's surface. This book brings together contributions by leading world scientists to summarize our present theoretical, observational, experimental and modeling understanding of buoyancy-driven flows. Buoyancy-driven currents play a key role in the global ocean circulation and in climate variability through their impact on deep-water formation. Buoyancy-driven currents are also primarily responsible for the redistribution of fresh water throughout the world's oceans. This book is an invaluable resource for advanced students and researchers in oceanography, geophysical fluid dynamics, atmospheric science and the wider Earth sciences who need a state-of-the-art reference on buoyancy-driven flows.
