... negative value. The plume motion under this condition is compared with the case without a thermal stratified layer. It is noted that the effect of stratification is not obvious in regions near to the fire. But for the upper region of the plume, the effect is significant. In this way, the plume might...

... circular-pool fire. This test simulated the conditions of a truck-sized nuclear waste transport package in a severe fire. The calorimeter inner surface temperature and the flame environment emissive power were measured at several locations as functions of time. An inverse heat conduction technique was used...

The purpose of this study is to be able to optimize a coarse numerical model and range of thermophysical parameters that represent the physics of the real problem in a standard test situation. The applied thermal problem involves fire barrier safety in the design of buildings...
