“…One task of the FY03 work was to evaluate video-based fire detection systems onboard the ex-USS Shadwell, the Naval Research Laboratory full-scale fire research facility in Mobile, Alabama [3]. These systems were evaluated in two test series conducted 7-18 April and April 21-25, 2003, in which the detection systems were exposed to various fire and nuisance sources.…”

SUPPLEMENTARY NOTES *Hughes Associates, Inc., Baltimore, MD **Nova Research, Inc., Alexandria, VA ABSTRACTThe Volume Sensor Prototype (VSP) system has been designed to detect, flame, smoldering fires, water releases (e.g., pipe ruptures), gas leaks, and hot objects and to discriminate nuisance sources, such as hot work. The tests presented in this report were conducted on the ex-USS Shadwvell from July 25 to August 5, 2005, to evaluate the VSP systems operating in six test compartments. The VSP performance was compared to the performance of state-of-the-art spot-type smoke detection systems. The VSP systems demonstrated the ability to function in multiple compartments, specifically discriminating between multiple types of events in multiple compartments. The VSP systems demonstrated the ability to discriminate between source types by detecting flaming and smoldering fire sources, water releases, and gas releases while rejecting nuisance sources. The VSP systems generally performed better than Video Image Detectors and spot-type smoke detection systems relative to range of detection capabilities, ability to detect fires, ability to reject nuisance sources, and speed of response.

“…There are many programs supported by the highly instrumented ex-USS Shadwell, the Navy's full scale fire research and test ship [1], where damage control and ship survivability investigations, analyses and evaluations are performed. Ships of the future must be able to perform a multitude of advanced functions not currently available with current technology and to perform them with reduced manning.…”
