Kill the Flashover: Water vs. Novacool Solution
During KTF 2015 we set out to demonstrate the positive effects of utilizing a foam concentrate to improve the efficiency of water. We took two rooms in the house and conducted pre-treatment tests. The walls and ceilings were coated with water in one room and 0.40% Novacool solution in the other room. The rooms were treated using approximately 10-15 gallons in each room. The walls and ceiling were treated using as close to the same application rate as possible on each covering. Once the walls and ceiling were treated the fuel load (couch) was brought into the room. The fuel load was lit and observations made.
The video is timed from ignition of the fuel load to show the fire spread comparis...

Let s enhance NFPA 1403 V2

As the heat release rate of the fuels inside structures continues to grow, the cycle time available for venting and suppression tactics decrease also. NFPA 1403 does not adequately (this author's opinion) prepare probationary firefighters for a safe entry into a fire compartment.

    Interesting that a garden hose cant put out a vented fire. TRUE that venting a fire is a consideration on the fire ground, and this video shows the principles involved. But at an actual structure fire, the Nozzleman has an 1" 3/4 with a TFT, which puts out 160 gpm AND mostly the fire is attacked from the interior in the real world.

    that little bit of water wouldnt put out a BBQ grill.. put some GPM's on that line. I bet it would effect it then. I agree with controlling the flow path as well.

  • @njdevfan69

    This is called the "Iowa Fire Flow Formula" which has been around for decades (L x W x H /100.) It dictates the minimum gpm required for 30 seconds of flow to control a fire. Rediscovering already known practices is fun. Novacool didn't really do sh*t, if you ask me. You would have gotten the same results from a semi-fog using roughly the same gallonage due to steam conversion.

    I've seen at least a few videos, the FD arrives and kicks in the front door. The fire doubles and redoubles, and finally they get water. Better to leave the door closed like example two, here. I'd never think 20 GPM would put out this volume of fire. Great job, people.

    The video demonstrates a ventilation limited fire that responds to the influx of oxygen. Smoke is fuel. With the door open, not enough water to overcome the BTUs being created, but with door control the same application has much better effect. Bravo!

    when you open the door the fire has more oxegen and so it grows bigger and since there is enough fuel and heat for it to burn it only does grow bigger

    • @MetalSandman999
      @MetalSandman999 6 лет назад

      commackfm I think the reason the fire flared up in the first example wasn't because of what was being sprayed on it, but because opening the door let in a lot of air Fire needs three things to exist: heat, fuel, and oxygen. More air means more oxygen. That's why when building a camp fire, you leave space between the logs. The first example opened the door, bringining in more air (and thus more oxygen) The second time, they kept the door mostly closed which meant less air and therefore, less fire.

    Such a simple idea. Yet so powerful. Traditionally we have been taught to ventilate early and often. NOT ventilating a particular space, closing down rooms or delaying ventilation can sometimes be the best tactical ventilation plan. Closing down a room until lines are in place can mean the difference between saving a structure (and lives) and losing everything. Yet we still see examples of well meaning firefighters smashing windows and open up compartments without any thought to consequences.

    Well clearly, hitting it from the outside pushed fire throughout the house, and would of killed anyone inside, including protected firefighters making entry from the front. The fact that the highest temperature seen outside the fire room upon entry was 91F means nothing. Nothing to see here. Move along.
