Combustion and fire safety of energy conservation materials in building vertical channel: Effects of structure factor and coverage rate
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study on combustion and fire safety of energy conservation materials (extruded polystyrene, i.e., XPS) in vertical channel with front openings of building facade is conducted, and effects of channel structure factor and curtain wall coverage rate (β) are revealed.

Experimental study on the characteristics of temperature distribution of two pool fires with different transverse locations in a naturally ventilated tunnel
TL;DR: In this article, the authors focus on the combustion characteristics and temperature distribution of two pool fires with different transverse locations in a model tunnel under natural ventilation, and propose a prediction model of maximum temperature rise under the tunnel ceiling, which matches the experimental results well.

Influence of air-gap and thickness on the upward flame spread over discrete wood chips
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of air gap and thickness of wood chips in the fire propagation mechanism by experimental investigating the mass loss rate (MLR), flame spread rate (FSR), total burning duration (TBD), and the flame characteristic length (MFL).
Wind-aided firespread across arrays of discrete fuel elements. Technical report, 26 September 1986-31 August 1989
TL;DR: In this article, the rate of wind-aided firespread (v{sub f}) across an array of very small-diameter, discrete fuel elements is sought, as a step toward predicting the advance in time of a firefront though either strewn debris in a heavily-blast-damaged scenario or through brush-and-grass-type wildlands.

Influence of air gap ratio of the Chinese historical wooden window on the vertical flame spread performance
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the influence of air gap ratio on the fire propagation mechanism of wooden windows by experimental investigating flame characteristics such as mass loss rate (MLR), flame spread rate (FSR), total burning duration (TBD), and maximum flame length (MFL).

Enclosure Fire Dynamics
TL;DR: The Enclosure Fire Dynamics as mentioned in this paper provides a complete description of enclosure fires and how the outbreak of a fire in a compartment causes changes in the environment, and provides a clear presentation of the dominant mechanisms controlling enclosure fires.
