  1. 1. Beständigheten hos brandimpregnerat trä

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Filip Engström; Hannes Psajd; [2024]
    Keywords : Fire retardant treated wood; ISO 5660–1; Permanence; Euroclass; Cone Calorimeter; ConeTools; Infrared spectroscopy; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report explores the properties of fire-retardant treated wood. This report has investigated the permanence for this material as well as seeing if the process of accelerated aging, which are used to determine the life span of the material, can be comparable to natural aging.

  3. 2. Combustibility study of resin for warm magnet coils used at CERN

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Juan Carlos Lopez Santiago; [2023]
    Keywords : Epoxy resin; flammability; radiation; aging; cone calorimeter; micro combustion calorimeter; thermogravimetric analysis; lateral ignition and flame spread test; chemical composition of polymers; polymers; epoxy composite; polymer composite; failure of epoxy resins; magnetic coil; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : CERN is the world's largest particle physics laboratory, housing multiple accelerators that rely heavily on magnetic coils. These coils are integral to the generation of powerful magnetic fields essential for particle accelerator experiments, detectors, and other equipment. READ MORE

  4. 3. Permanent Fire Load of the Building Envelope

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Gizelle Danine Pondevida Jamero; [2023]
    Keywords : Permanent fire load; temporary fire load; fire load; building envelope; insulation; building content; upholstered furniture; heat of combustion; MCC; bomb calorimeter; cone calorimeter; room corner test.; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Fire load, the total thermal energy released by the combustion of a material, is an essential part of determining a building’s fire performance and the associated fire protection strategies. Elements in a structure are typically categorized into two types of fire loads: permanent and temporary. READ MORE

  5. 4. Discharge and Flame Chemistry in Lithium-Ion Battery Vent Gases : Investigations using Breakdown Experiments with Laser-Based Diagnostics

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Keywords : PLIF; Laser-induced fluorescence; Laser-based diagnostics; Combustion; Lithium-ion battery; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : Due to the environmental impact of fossil fuels, there has been a growing interest in lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles. However, safety concerns have arisen regarding potential fire hazards associated with the vent gases of these batteries. READ MORE

  6. 5. Suppression of Li-ion Battery Fires

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Linfan Cai; [2023]
    Keywords : Lithium-ion Battery; Fire Suppression System; Extinguishing Agent; Thermal Runaway; Battery Energy Storage System; Electric Vehicle; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a systematic literature review of fixed fire suppression systems and extinguishing agents for lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires. The review identifies 85 relevant sources published between 2013 and March 2023, and categorises different research experiments into cell-level, module-level, electric vehicle (EV) pack-level, battery energy storage system (BESS) rack-level and warehouse storage experiments, according to LIB configurations.
