Seventeen experimental fires with polyethylene and wood fuel were carried out in a full-scale compartment. The combustion air was supplied by a fan and the special feature of the compartment was the use of a slit which enabled the vertical position of the neutral plane to be well defined for outside

In their paper "Nonconventional Fully Developed Polyethene and Wood Compartment Fires" [1], B6hm and Hadvig describe an experimental program examining fully developed compartment fires with polyethene as the dominant fuel. They also outline the procedure they developed to simulate numerically the fi
There is no doubt that increased application of sprinkler protection through a building can significantly reduce fire losses. In many compartment fires, the water damage is far more extensive than the flame damage. This paper examines the possibility of controlling the flow of water from sprinklers
