Flame Spread Behaviour over Combustible Solid of Paper, Bagasse and Paper/Bagasse

Abstract

Abstract.Flame spread over combustible solid must be precisely identify in fire hazard and this is the basic problem in fire safety engineering field. To explore the flame spread mechanism over combustible solid, the downward flame spread behaviour over paper and bagasse has been investigated in this experiment. It found that the combustion pattern for paper was slightly different from the bagasse on the front view and this was analysed through the observation. The result also showed that the flame spread rate for paper is higher compared to the flame spread rate for bagasse. It seem that, although bagasse is the combustible solid the rate of flame spread is lower and the usage of bagasse can help to control the flame spread.

A Brief Review of Acoustic Excitation Toward Jet Flame Characteristics

“…However, the change difference concerning the inner flame core where the color become luminous and the size is much smaller than the burner exit. [56] thus the effect of flame structure also influence the flame spread behavior [57][58][59][60][61]. All results have been in agreement that at certain frequencies, flame will have natural flickering frequency that creates the flame to wave and change of its color intensity.…”

“…A liftoff height is a point measured from the centerline distance of the duct exit to the plane of flame stabilization [52][53][54][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65]. Oh et al, [30] proved the correlation of interaction between flame length and liftoff height during acoustic excitation.…”
