Grant Program:
Discovery Projects
Grant Activity:
Dynamics and Enhanced Suppression of Fires
Purpose:
This project aims to transform our understanding of the dynamics of fires and smoke in enclosures and their interaction with water sprays and mists carrying chemical suppressants. Fires in buildings remain very difficult to contain and continue to cause extensive loss of lives and property. The proposed research will exploit advances in laser diagnostics and computer power to determine and quantify the complex interactions between droplets, turbulent flames, smoke formation and chemical suppression processes. Outcomes include novel experimental databases for turbulent buoyant flames and chemical suppression effectiveness, thus laying the foundation for enhancing our predictive capabilities and improving fire control methodologies.
