An experimental and modelling study of fires in ventilated passages.

A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Engineering, University of
the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfillment of the
requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. / A theoretical and experimental treatment of fire processes in
fuel-Lined, ventilated passages is presented. Initially a
radially well mixed axial flow condition is considered.
Experiments are first performed in non-stratified flow
conditions where fire propagation and gas temperature histories
are acquired from liquid and solid fuelled fires. Theory and
experiment;display transient fire propagation for typical duct
fire scenarios where initial fuel mass Loading is constant with
respect to duct length. ( Abbreviation abstract ) / AC2017
