✦ Synopsis


In the present work the single-temperature and single-velocity model is presented to investigate numerically combustion processes and gas aerosol extinction in a compartment. An agreement is obtained between calculated and experimental data in time it takes for the extingusihing concentration to reach a gas aerosol composition on extinguishing of ethanol and heptane in experimental chambers.

## Abstract Alpert's expressions are used extensively to calculate the maximum temperature and velocity in the ceiling‐jet at any distance, __r__, from the fire axis. These expressions are valid for unconfined ceilings insofar as the environment outside the ceiling‐jet is uniform in temperature and

A series of analyses, accounting for the effects of tensile membrane action in the concrete slabs, has been performed on a large generic composite floor under fire conditions, using different patterns of fire protection for the steel beams. These demonstrate that it may often be possible to leave a
