Studying solid combustion phenomena in microgravity environments can be complex, and
this is furthered by many limitations and constraints in the available microgravity research …

Radiative heat transfer (RHT) is often the dominant mode of heat transfer in flames, fires,
and combustion systems and affects significantly temperature distributions directly and …

Timber is cost-effective and environmentally-friendly, which is a potential material for
sustainable buildings, but its fire safety is still a significant concern. In this work, we …

A new rig for microgravity experiments was used for the study flame spread of parallel
polyethylene-coated wires in concurrent and opposed airflow. The parabolic flight …

Focusing on the chemiluminescent properties of the flame is an effective way to study the
flame structure and reaction mechanism. In this paper, based on the CCD camera imaging …

Fire safety is a concern in space travel, particularly with the current plans of increasing the
length of the manned space missions, and of using spacecraft atmospheres different than in …

The spread of flames over the surface of solid combustible material in an opposed flow is
different from the mass burning (or fuel regression) in a pool fire. However, the progress of a …

Flame spread over an insulated electrical wire is identified as a fire scenario in space
vehicles. In such microgravity configurations, the contribution of thermal radiation from …

The flame spread process over the surface of a solid combustible material is highly
influenced by the radiative feedback from the flame, and the conditions under which the …

Fire safety is a significant concern in aviation as well as space travel and settlement, where
reduced pressure and raised oxygen concentration are used. Electrical wire has been …
