LARGE – SCALE FIRE TEST WITH A PASSENGER CAR IN AN OPEN AREA
This article briefly presents the results of measurements of the temperature field, the heat flux density field and chemical analyses of sampled smoke for the content of selected toxicants during large-scale fire test carried out with a passenger car in an open area. The measured values are compared...

| description | This article briefly presents the results of measurements of the temperature field, the heat flux density field and chemical analyses of sampled smoke for the content of selected toxicants during large-scale fire test carried out with a passenger car in an open area. The measured values are compared with the values calculated from numerical modelling using the FDS computer software. The severity of the problems is documented by selected data from the statistics of fires of cars in the Czech Republic in the period of 2004-2013 and by the devastating effects of fires on their crew and its surroundings. |
