Journal ArticleDOI
Fire spill plume from a compartment with dual symmetric openings under cross wind
TL;DR: In this paper, a comprehensive theoretical and experimental study on the fire spill plume from a compartment with dual symmetric openings under cross wind was performed at the outlet of a wind tunnel using a bench-scale compartment with a leeward facade wall and dual asymmetric openings.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combustion dynamics of large-scale wildfires
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overall pattern of the essential factors that lead an initial small-scale spreading flame to a large-scale wildfire beyond control, including the complicated transformation of fuel preheating mechanisms, varied large-size flame fronts and unique spread modes induced in specific fire environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Interpretation on fire interaction mechanisms of multiple pool fires
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of n-heptane and ethanol MPF tests with fuel pan diameters D of 0.2, 0.15, and 0.05m and different S/D (S: fire spacing) were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of atmospheric oxygen on horizontal peat smoldering fires: Experimental and numerical study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effects of Y O 2 on horizontal peat smoldering behaviors by experimental and numerical means, and they showed that the upper surface of the dry peat undergoes a transition from weak charring (without combustion) to surface glowing combustion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Flame length of buoyant turbulent slot flame
TL;DR: In this paper, the role of initial momentum and buoyancy on flame length is quantitatively described by a modified Froude number Frm, and an approximate predictive correlation of flame length was derived based on the governing equations.
