Abstract

Fire extinction in a closed ship cabin is one of the efficient measures for fire fighting. It would be of significant values for engineering application to study the smoke characteristics of a fire within a closed cabin. This paper constructs a fire model with analyses of smoke height, self-extinction time, the cabin temperature at the quenching time and CO density based on the study of the fire behavior and the smoke characteristics in a confined cabin. It also presents a simulation verification for the theoretical model. The results demonstrates that this model does well to study the characteristics of smoke production and flow in a closed cabin. So it could be a good reference for crews to control damage while suppressing fire in closed cabins.
