TL;DR: In this paper , a comprehensive model for horizontal turbulent jet flame geometries under opposing wind was presented, which can be used to predict the flame geometry of horizontal jet fires under an opposing wind.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scale modelling experiments on the effect of longitudinal ventilation on fire spread and fire properties in tunnel
TL;DR: In this article , the effect of longitudinal ventilation on the temperature distribution in the downstream area of the fire source is found mainly limited to the vicinity of a fire source, and the maximum ceiling temperature, flame tilt angle and downwind flame temperature under longitudinal ventilation are found to be heavily dependent on Fr (Froude number) and dimensionless Q* (Dimensionless heat release rate).
Journal ArticleDOI
Investigation on the characteristics of fire burning and smoke spreading in longitudinal-ventilated tunnels with blockages
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the ventilation and blockage effect on fuel burning rate, the maximum temperature, critical velocity, and smoke back-layering length in longitudinally ventilated tunnels.
