Huo, R. and Zhang, Hui, 1992. An Experimental Study On Combustion Behavior In Compartment Fire When The Fuel Gas Are Excessive. AOFST 1


ABSTRACT

When a building is on fire, a large quantity of fuel gas can be produced. If the air supply is insufficient, these excessive fuel gas will be accumulated in the room. Once they are mixed with fresh air, a strong combustion can take place. The characteristics in such fire were studied in a single reduced scale room. It is found that this kind of combustion can appear periodically. The appearing conditions are discussed too.
