Electrical wires and cables have been identified as a potential source of fire in residential
buildings, nuclear power plants, aircraft, and spacecraft. This work reviews the recent …

Among the different thermo-chemical recycling routes for plastic waste valorization,
gasification is one of the most promising, converting plastic waste into syngas (H2+ CO) and …

Dripping of polymer insulations in wire fire has a potential risk of igniting nearby objects and
expanding the size of fire, but has not been well studied so far. In this experimental study …

In electrical wires with insulations that burn and melt, the dripping of molten insulation can
change the wire fire behavior, ignite nearby objects, and enhance the fire spread. Dripping …

This paper established a novel visualization method for measuring blast furnace slag (BFS)
flow properties and investigated the effect of alumina content on the CaO–SiO2–Al 2 O 3 …

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 …

Ignition by dripping flame is widely observed in wire fires and façade fires, but little research
has quantified its fire hazard. This work studies the ignition of thin papers (0.07–0.32 mm) by …

Near-limit downward flame spread over cylindrical thermoplastic materials under various
gravities, oxygen concentrations and opposed flow velocities were investigated …

Discrete flame spread, accompanied with melt-flowing and-dripping behaviors, significantly
increases fire hazards of thermoplastic materials in exterior insulation walls. The movement …

Dripping of molten fuels is a widely observed fire phenomenon, and, by igniting other fuels, it
can promote fire spread and increase fire hazards. In this work, dripping phenomena from …
