  1. 1. Factors influencing the generation of carbon monoxide in fires partially suppressed through water mist application

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Haydn Lewis; [2020]
    Keywords : Fire safety engineering; water mist; fire suppression; carbon monoxide; water; combustion; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fires in the built environment typically consist of diffusion flames with inefficient mixing of fuel and oxygen, resulting in a degree of incomplete combustion and the generation of carbon monoxide.
