Modeling heat and moisture transport in firefighter protective clothing during flash fire exposure
A a model of heat and moisture transport in firefighter protective clothing during a flash fire exposure is presented. Investigated is the effect of coupled heat and moisture transport on the protective performance of the garment. Computational results show the distribution of temperature and moisture content in the fabric during the exposure to the flash fire as well as during the cool-down period. Moreover, the duration of the exposure during which the garment protects the firefighter from getting second and third degree burns from the flash fire exposure is numerically predicted. A complete model for the fire-fabric-air gap-skin system is presented.
