Fire safety of utility tunnel, which is significantly affected with cables, has arouse public
concern. This work experimentally investigated influences of interlayer distance (d) and …

Fire safety analyses in nuclear power plants need to assess the heat release rate (HRR) of
potential cable fires. This study deals with the FLASH-CAT model which assesses the HRR …

The extension flame length is determined by the unburnt fuel mass flow after im**ement
and the varying buoyancy component along with the curved ceiling. However, the existing …

The electrical wire fire often occurs in the confined space, making the flame spread behavior
complex and the risk increase. In this paper, experimental and theoretical study on the flame …

Experiments were performed to carefully characterize the influence of ambient temperature
and incident heat flux on the horizontal flame spread over wires and cables. Results show …

Cable fire risk analysis is important for fire protection design in nuclear power plants, where
multiple horizontal cable trays are mostly located on the walls. Fire experiments using three …

The decomposition and fire behaviors of two commonly used cables were studied by a
calorimeter. The effects of the cable type, the incident heat flux, and the thermal aging on the …

With the development of the social economy and the improvement of electrification, cables
and wires play an important role in people's lives and industrial development. Meanwhile …

In this paper, a pyrolysis model for a PVC cable is constructed using results from
thermogravimetric analysis, microscale combustion calorimeter and cone calorimeter …

The fire behavior of one flame-retardant PVC cable used as building wire is investigated in
this work. Bench scale tests were performed using a cone calorimeter. The influence of two …
