  1. 21. Flamelet modelling of soot formation in diffusion flames

    Author : Anne Simone Dederichs; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Environmental technology; Emissions; Pollution; pollution control; Miljöteknik; kontroll av utsläpp;

    Abstract : In this work the steady and unsteady flamelet models have been applied to soot formation in laminar and turbulent diffusion flames. The aim was to study how different model parameters affect soot formation in diffusion flames. It was shown that certain assumptions are more crucial in laminar diffusion flames than in turbulent ones. READ MORE

  2. 22. Designing preparedness – Emergency preparedness in a community context

    Author : Kerstin Eriksson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : There has been an increased focus in society on preparedness for emergency response in recent years. Today there is legislation that requires all Swedish authorities at the local, regional and national levels to prepare for emergency management and response. Since the task is rather new, most authorities are just beginning to address it. READ MORE

  3. 23. Preparing for Preparedness - Shaping Crisis Planning Processes in Local Authorities

    Author : Kerstin Eriksson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ability to respond to crises; Preparedness planning process; Crisis management; Local authority; Municipality;

    Abstract : In the developed countries the public expect society to be prepared for, and step in, if something out of the ordinary happens. This public pressure appears to have increased the demand for crisis preparedness planning. READ MORE

  4. 24. Rail Tunnel Evacuation

    Author : Karl Fridolf; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; smoke; walking speed; flow rate of people; experiment; train; tunnel; metro; underground rail transportation system; evacuation; Human behavior in fire;

    Abstract : In this thesis, human behavior in rail tunnel fires is explored. Descriptive knowledge is presented related to the evacuation of passenger trains, and the subsequent tunnel evacuation to a safe location. READ MORE

  5. 25. Determination of Material Properties for Fire Modelling

    Author : Ulf Göransson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Material properties; Material degradation; Measurements; Fire test data; Byggnadsteknik; Building construction; Teknik; Technological sciences; Fire; Surface temperature; Mathematical modelling;

    Abstract : Fire and flame spread are very complex phenomenon to study. Several aspects need to be considered and treated. In order to be able to do a correct analysis of the flame spread phenomenon, which is necessary to be able to predict flame spread, knowledge of material properties are needed. Material properties can be obtained in different ways. READ MORE
