6. Visibility in Smoke With Different Extinction Coefficients
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : Visibility in smoke has since the 1970s gained some attention, mostly after Tadahisa Jin ran the experiments which helped him develop todays widely used visibility equation. By showing that visibility can be assumed to be inversely proportional to the extinction coefficient by a visibility constant (equal to 8 for light emitting sign and 3 for light reflecting), Jin opened up new doors for researchers who were testing out his theory by going around experimenting in different ways and also by showing that there is way for more research to be done.

7. Simulating cable fires in Fire Dynamics Simulator : Based on small scale testing in cone calorimeter
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brandAbstract : In a society increasingly more influenced by technology and electricity, electrical and computer cables will play a more vital role in humans’ everyday life. With an increasing number of cables being introduced into society, the risk of fires caused by or involving cables will increase and become a more common danger to property and human lives. READ MORE

8. A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF TRAVELLING FIRE IN LARGE SPACES WITH MULTI-ZONE FIRE MODEL AND FDS
University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för BrandteknikAbstract : A knowledge of far field temperatures is valuable for Performance Based Design structural analysis and life safety analysis, where a parametric study is needed. A fire model using multiple zones called a multi zone (MZ) fire model has in previous studies shown good potential as an analytical tool for predicting far field temperatures in large compartments.

9. The Kiruna town move : Unearthing the possibilities for full-scale fire tests
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brandAbstract : The work with this thesis started during the last semester at the Fire Protection Engineering program at Luleå University of Technology. Kiruna has relied on the iron ore resources of Luossavaara and Kiirunavaara since the creation of the town. The iron ore stretches underneath the current city center. READ MORE

10. A Comparison between the Wickström Compartment Fire Model with Experiments and other Calculation Methods
University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brandAbstract : An Excel spreadsheet application has been developed for calculating pre-flashover compartment fire temperature according to the method described in the book ”Temperature Calculation in Fire Safety Engineering” written by Wickström 2016. Here called the Wickström Compartment Fire Model, WCFM, which is a model where the surrounding structure can be assumed either as lumped heat or as semi-infinite. READ MORE
