Ames, S.A., Davies, J.P. and Rogowski, Z.W., 1970. PERFORMANCE OF METALLIC FOAM AS A FLAME ARRESTER. Fire Research Notes 809
ABSTRACT
New metallic material resembling a structure of a sponge was investigated for application as a flame arrester. Its performance as a flame arrester in a tube was promising. Various grades were tested up to flame speeds of 200 m/s (600 ft/s) and with materials having similar resistance to air flow as commercial flame arresters no transmission of flame occurred.
