Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study reports experimental and analytical effects of the blast environment within structures on fires, people, and objects, and with toxic gases created by burning debris. The program was directed toward improving the knowledge of factors that can influence the effectiveness of shelters and of other countermeasures that can contribute toward reduction of casualties and saving of life. The experimental study of blast/fire interaction was carried out with long duration flow effects (resembling those from megaton range weapons) on flaming materials. It was found that blast extinguishment of fires was strongly dependent on location of the burning material in the room, and on the type of materials. Lightweight materials were extinguished in portions of the room that experienced high velocity flows; heavier materials were never totally extinguished. In four long duration tests conducted with anthropomorphic dummies in room and chamber environments, it was found that the high velocities generated near entrances and exits (and well within a room in some geometries) caused objects and the mannikins to acquire velocities that were potentially injurious or lethal. Simple analytical models of wall debris translation indicated that, even at low overpressures, both lightweight (e.g., sheetrock) and heavy (masonry) walls can generate debris which is potentially casualty-producing. A literature search on toxic gases produced by burning debris (as might be found in the vicinity of shelters) concluded that lethal concentrations of CO could be encountered.

Book excerpt: The objective of this investigation was to obtain a more basic understanding of the physical mechanisms by which blast waves interact with fires. This information is needed to ensure that the correlation functions to be used in formulae for predicting the extinction or enhancement of fires by nuclear blast waves will include all the controlling variables. The study was limited to wood fires and fires over liquid hydrocarbon fuels. Flames were displaced from burning wood surfaces by blast waves propagating parallel to the burning surface in all tests. At low blast strength, flame persisted in crevices in the char surfaces to reignite the fire. At high blast strength, glowing combustion of the char was stimulated. Fires burning over flat wicks containing a liquid hydrocarbon were displaced off the wick in all tests. Reignition of the wick by flames swept into the wake depended on whether the vapor pressure over the liquid fuel was reduced enough, by cooling the liquid, so that concentration of fuel vapor flowing into the wake was depressed below the flammability limit before the end of the positive phase of the flow. Keywords: Fire Extinction Mechanisms; Airblast Simulation; Blast/fire Interactions; Flame Suppression; Fire Extinction By Air Blast; Fast Rising Air Flow Without Shocks.

Book excerpt: Hypotheses are formulated of the process of interaction between an airblast and fires supported by liquid fuels and wood cribs. A map of blast weakness versus fire strength is conceived on which the regime of fire extinction can be delineated from the regime where the fire sustains the blast. The fire strength is described for liquid fuels primarily by the heat of combustion; and for wood, it is mainly described by the preburn time. The concept is substantiated by the SRI shocktube data.
