| Abstract | The computational analysis of downward motion and evaporation of water droplets used to suppress a typical transient pool fire shows local regions of a strong scattering of visible and near-infrared radiation by partially evaporating small droplets. The positions of these local regions are very sensitive to flame parameters and this can be used to develop a new method of experimental optical observations at the probe stage of fire suppression by water sprays. Some of these optical measurements are expected to be useful for partial validation of transient CFD simulations of pool fire suppression by sprays. |
