Validation of Full Room Involvement Time Correlation Applicable to Steel Ship Compartments
2006
Peatross, Michelle J. | Beyler, Craig L. | Back, Gerard G.
The Ship Fire Safety Engineering Methodology (SFSEM) requires a submodel for the prediction of the time to full room involvement (FRI) in compartment fires. In order to validate a temperature correlation for compartments with conductive barriers, preflashover fire tests were conducted in a steel compartment on the test vessel, MAYO LYKES. Fifteen of these tests used natural ventilation, and twelve tests used forced ventilation. In addition to validating a temperature correlation using measured vent flows, the use of predicted vent flows was investigated. The MQH Temperature Prediction Method was compared with these results. The compartment was instrumented with thermocouple trees and a gas sampling tree. Vertical oxygen and temperature profiles are discussed and compared to ventilation configurations.
