  1. 21. Multi-scale modelling of fire in accelerator tunnels: a CERN case study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Melchior Schepers; [2018]
    Keywords : Multi-scale modelling; CFD; tunnel fires; FDS; CERN; particle accelerator; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Multi-scale modellering is een nieuwe benadering in het modelleren van rook en brand in systemen waarbij de grootte van het domein een meer conventionele volledige 3D modellering onmogelijk maakt. Het domein wordt opgesplitst in een 1D en 3D gedeelte om zo de simulatietijd te verminderen. READ MORE

  3. 22. Identification and characterization of design fires to be used in performance-based fire design of CERN facilities

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Darko Perovic; [2018]
    Keywords : Fire; Design fire; Vehicle fires; DMS 500; fast particulate analyser; Cone Calorimeter; Smoke characterization; Particle size distribution; Shell Diala; Midel; Cables; cable fires; Electrical cabinets; Electrical racks; CERN; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : CERN operates the most complex particle accelerator facility built until today. As such, it consists of thousands of custom-made components spread both in upper ground facilities and in underground tunnels and caverns. READ MORE

  5. 24. The impact of fire development on design resistance of structures

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Byggkonstruktion och brand

    Author : Catrin Eberius; Kristin Fjällström; [2017]
    Keywords : Large compartments; temperature- time curves; travelling fires; simplified fire models; fire development;

    Abstract : The current design methods used to determine fire progression and temperature-time development in fire compartments today are being questioned to not give accurate results in large and complex enclosures (larger than 500 m2). The established design methods proposed by Eurocode and used by fire safety engineers today are primarily the standard temperature-time curve and the parametric temperature-time curves. READ MORE

  6. 25. Fire Extinguishing in Complex Facilities – A Study of Large Fire Extinguishing

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Hampus Ragnar; [2017]
    Keywords : European Spallation Source; ESS; large fires; automatic fire extinguishing systems; manual fire suppression systems; sprinkler; low-pressure; high-pressure; water mist; foam; CAFS; PGA; powder; portable fire extinguisher; cutting extinguisher; PPV; extinguishing grenade; stora bränder; automatiska släcksystem; manuella släcksystem; lågtryck; högtryck; vattendimma; skum; pulver; handbrandsläckare; skärsläckare; släckgranat; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report analyzes fire extinguishing solutions that might cut time between fire alarm and fire extinguishing at the European Spallation Source. A special design fire with a very high peak heat release rate is used. READ MORE
