Book excerpt: Fire safety is an area of particular interest for bothconventional intercity and commuter passenger trains, and new high-speed trains. A systems approach to fire safety addresses passenger rail car design and materials, detection and suppression, passenger and train crew evacuation, and their interactions. The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA)is sponsoring a multi-phase research program directed at providing the scientific basis for using a systems approach to evaluate the level of passenger train fire safety already achieved through the current prescriptive material requirements. Previously published interim reports document the research program results to date. Phase I focused on the evaluation of passenger rail car interior furnishing materials using data from existing FRAcitedsmall-scale test methods and from an alternative test method using the cone calorimeter (ASTM International E-1354). In Phase II, full-scale tests were conducted of selected interior material component assemblies using alarger scale furniture calorimeter; fire hazard analyses were then conducted for three types of intercity passenger rail cars, using data from both types of tests. This Phase III interim report compares the results of Phases I and II ofthe research program, with a series of full-scale fire tests conducted in an Amtrak coach rail car. The goal of Phase III was to evaluate the extent that the results of the small- and full-scale tests and fire hazard analyses usingthe Consolidated Model of Fire and Smoke Transport (CFAST) computer model are predictive of actual passenger rail car material burning behavior.

Book excerpt: Recent advances in passenger guided ground transportation, fire test methods, and hazard analysis necessitate re-examination of requirements for fire safety. Several studies have indicated nearly random ability of current tests to predict actual fire behavior. Fire safety in any application, including transportation, requires a multi-faceted approach. The effects of vehicle design, material selection, detection and suppression systems, and emergency egress and their interaction, on the overall fire safety of the passenger trains are all considered. All of the technologies being considered for U S operation have evolved under different types of regulations and standards. This report presents a detailed comparison of the fire safety approaches used in the United States, France, and Germany. The strengths and weaknesses of current methods for measuring the fire performance of rail transportation systems are evaluated. An optimum systems approach to fire safety which addresses typical passenger train fire scenarios is analyzed. A rationale is presented for the direction in which most fire science-oriented organizations in the world are clearly headed - the use of fire hazard and fire risk assessment methods supported by measurement methods based on heat release rate (HRR).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fire Safety of Passenger Trains: A Review of Current Approaches and of New Concepts Specific requirements for the flammability of materials in rail transportation vehicles first appeared in 1966 These rail car specifications dictated flame tests for seat foam materials before the material use would be approved for the original Metroliner passenger rail cars. The National Academy of Sciences [12] provided general guidelines in 1979 for the use of flammable materials in rail transit vehicles. These guidelines recommended the use of only those polymeric materials that by testing and comparison, are judged to be the most fire retardant and that have the lowest smoke and toxic gas emission rates. Further, they suggested these be used sparingly, consistent with comfort and serviceability. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
