Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heat Transfer and Fire Spread The total heat flux related to fire spread was calculated for each set of test fires. These values are tabulated in table 2. The radiant heat fluxes reported by Thomas and Law (1965) are of the same magnitude where 0 and/or l were varied. This general agreement indicates radiant heat does contribute to rate of spread, but in the present case the energy is the combined sum of the heat transfer components. The next step was to determine how much heat was being supplied by the flame and how much by the combustion zone. Analysis of all the tests showed a nearly constant combustion zone temperature with no significant correlation to fuel moisture content.

This book was released on 2018-08-09 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Effective Heating of Fuel Ahead of Spreading Fire A spreading fire is a series of particle-to-particle ignitions where the energy necessary for propagation has its source within the combustion zone where particles are undergoing a measurable weight loss through pyrolysis (fons These consecutive ignitions do not depend on uniformly heated fuel. Frandsen (1971) accounted for nonuniform heating ahead of the fire by defining the effective heating number.

This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fire Spread Characteristics Determined in the Laboratory This study was designed to find the relative importance of fuel moisture and wind upon the rate of fire spread in light forest fuels. Systematic investigations of a physical phenomenon often produce an insight into its cause and effect. Through this technique, the authors hoped to gain a better understanding of the basic mechanisms of fire spread, which would enable them to develop hypotheses to be analyzed in future experiments.

This book was released on 2017-12-11 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reexamination of Rothermel's Fire Spread Equations in No-Wind and No-Slope Conditions We used heuristic reasoning and statistical because it works types of argument to reach conclusions and to generate empirical equations to describe events. For example, our procedure for forming the expectation value for spread rate as the product of other primary expectation values is not vigorously legitimate because those expectation values were not derived independently. Thus, this exposition cannot be labeled as good physical the ory; knowledge of wildfire phenomena has not yet reached that stage.

This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heat Transmission by Radiation, Conduction and Convection The laws concerning convection and the resistance to the flow of fluids have been discussed in Chapter III at some length in view of the intimate relations existing between the resistance to flow and the transmission of heat by convection. Also in describing apparatus and experimental data in Chapters III, and IV, a fair amount of detail has been given so as not to leave the evidence and information obscure. As far as possible all the experimental points have been plotted in the various graphs, as this was felt to be necessary so that the reader could see how near the curves follow the points, besides indicating the number of separate tests made in each series. Nearly the whole of the experimental data, however, were obtained from small apparatus. Comparisons with the results of tests on boilers, condensers, and similar plant, and the application of the laws of heat transmission to design, have been reserved for treatment in H eat Transmission in Boilers, Condensers, and Evaporators.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fuel Burning Rates of Downward Versus Horizontally Spreading Fires The method of obtaining w experimentally has been covered by Frandsen and Rothermel (1972) in their investigation of the reaction intensity of the combustion zone of a Spreading fire. (the rate w is properly a loss; however, the negative sense is inter nally compensated.) The reaction intensity, ir, is another important dynamic parameter of the fire. It is the total energy-release rate evolved from the combustion zone, and is related to w through h, the low heat of combustion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Elementary Treatise on Heat In this work the Author has endeavoured to place before his readers in an elementary form the facts and principles of the Science of 'Heat, ' and also to give some of the most prominent practical applications of our knowledge of this subject. His object has been to begin with the study of well-ascertained facts and to proceed onwards to general principles. Accordingly, the work has been divided into three parts; the first of which embraces the study of the various effects produced by heat upon bodies. In this part many of the most recent investigations, as well as the apparatus used in conducting them, are described at length, while numerical examples are given, which, it is hoped, may enable the student to attain to the accuracy needful in physical research. The second division contains the laws which regulate the distribution of heat through space, and includes radiation, conduction, convection, and the measurements of specific and latent heat. Theoretical views are here for the first time introduced. The third and last part relates to the nature of Heat, its sources, and connexion with other properties of matter. In this part Heat is viewed as a kind of energy, and the leading principles by which Heat becomes related to other forms of energy are discussed.
