Download or read book Comparing Class A Foam Compressed Air Foam Systems (CAFS) Against Plain Water Suppression in Live Fire Gas Cooling Experiments for Interior Structural Firefighting written by Sean Carter Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wildland fire services have successfully integrated compressed air foam systems (CAFS) into their fire suppression arsenal over the last few decades to effectively increase the firefighting ability of water. Many urban fire departments have done the same, but far more still rely on plain water to extinguish Class A fires. Many claims have been made about the advantages and disadvantages of firefighting foams, but only limited research has been conducted on the subject to date. Fire departments need more information, beyond that provided by foam suppliers and CAFS equipment manufacturers, to make an independent decision on whether or not to adopt the technology. This thesis is part of a larger project sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security Assistance to Firefighter Grant Program (grant ID: EMW-2010-FP-01369) to evaluate the capabilities and limitations of compressed air foam systems (CAFS) for use in structural firefighting applications. Large-scale tests comparing water and foam suppression, which includes aspirated foam and CAFS, in a variety of scenarios were performed to measure the ability of the hose streams to reduce the temperature of a hot gas layer within a structure. These temperature reductions were recorded with thermocouples and are analyzed to determine which suppression agent has a superior gas cooling ability.

Download or read book A Study on the Effectiveness of Ground Applied Compressed Air Foam System (CAFS) in Wildland Fire Suppression in Alaska written by Fredric J. Bethune and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wetting agents are widely known to increase the effectiveness of water as an extinguishing agent. The addition of an air compressor produces a shaving cream-like mixture which causes the extinguishing agent to remain where it is applied for an extended period of time. This causes fuel moisture to increase in the same manner that shaving cream wets a beard. This report on the compressed air foam system (CAFS) project will evaluate the effectiveness of this revolutionary firefighting concept and determine its cost effectiveness to incorporate the system into existing or new wildland fire apparatus in Alaska.

Book excerpt: This report provides a general overview of nozzle-aspirated class A and compressed air foam systems. It then discusses hands-on evaluations by several fire departments that are currently using class A foam systems in structural fire suppression or wildland/urban interface fire protection. Reported advantages and disadvantages in the use of class A foams and CAFS in structural firefighting, both from field experience and from recent fire protection literature, are included in this report.

Experience Navigate 2 today at www.jblnavigate.com/2. Wildland Fire Fighter: Principles and Practice, Second Edition meets and exceeds the job performance requirements and objectives as outlined in the following National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) and National Wildland Coordinating Group (NWCG) standards: • NFPA 1051, Standard for Wildland Firefighting Personnel Professional Qualifications, 2020 Edition (Chapters 4 and 5) • NWCG S-190, Introduction to Wildland Fire Behavior, 2019 Edition • NWCG S-130, Firefighter Training, 2008 Edition • NWCG L-180, Human Factors in the Wildland Fire Service, 2014 Edition From wildland fire service history, to safety, to water supply, to firing operations, this single manual covers everything an NFPA Wildland Fire Fighter I and Wildland Fire Fighter II (NWCG Fire Fighter Type 2 and 1) needs to know. In addition, the Second Edition was significantly updated and reorganized to better serve the Wildland Fire Fighter I and Wildland Fire Fighter II. The program now features two distinct sections. Section 1 includes six chapters, which set the foundation for Wildland Fire Fighter I knowledge and understanding. Section 2 comprises eight chapters, which encompass the higher-level competencies required for Wildland Fire Fighter II. This new organization will allow instructors the flexibility to teach their Wildland Fire Fighter I and II course(s) exactly the way they wish. The features in this text will help students take that extra step toward becoming outstanding wildland fire fighters. These features include: • Refined Table of Contents. Now divided by level, the new table of contents addresses NFPA and NWCG requirements and objectives in an easy-to-follow manner. • New Chapters. New chapters including The Wildland Fire Service, Wildland/Urban Interface Considerations, Tools and Equipment, Human Resources, and Radio Communications ensure a comprehensive understanding of history, safety, and operations. • Scenario-Based Learning. You are the Wildland Fire Fighter and Wildland Fire Fighter in Action case scenarios are found in each chapter to encourage and foster critical-thinking skills. • Practical Tips for Wildland Fire Fighters. The Listen Up! and Did You Know? features provide helpful advice and encouragement. • Skill Drills. This feature provides written step-by-step explanations and visuals for important skills and procedures. This clear, concise format enhances student comprehension of complex procedures. • After-Action Review Section. The end-of-chapter review includes detailed chapter summaries and key terms to reinforce important principles. • Updated photos and illustrations. New and improved photos and illustrations enhance learning with visuals of incidents and training simulations, as well as highlighting advances i

This book was released on 2023-11 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Fire Behavior and Combustion Processes was designed to provide a straight-forward yet comprehensive resource for students enrolled in fire science degree programs, or as a refresher for active firefighters. It provides an understanding of the basic principles of fire chemistry, the processes of fire combustion, and fire behavior. The subject of fire behavior is often a complex one, and this book seeks to clarify theoretical concepts, explain their importance, and illustrate how they can be applied in a practical way when responding to emergency situations"--
