Calculating Fire Plume Characteristics in a Two Layer Environment
Methods are developed to determine axial gas flow conditions within a weakly buoyant plume that passes from an ambient quiescent environment, in which the plume originates, to an upper layer at elevated temperatures. The methods are appropriate for inclusion in two layer analysis of enclosure fire. In particular, they are a first step in developing a prediction of actuation time for thermally activated automatic sprinklers exposed to an enclosure fire. Results obtained with various methods are compared with measurements in a 1.22 m diameter cylindrical enclosure.
