Panku21, you may want your people to first test the extinguishing agent on zirconium machine cuttings. If the agent can extinguish this metal then they should be able to extinguish U metal fires. Once again the extinguishing agents available can only control the spread of the fire but they do...
Panku21 it would help if I know what type of agent your people intend to us to extinguish or contain the fire. Also
the size of material to be used will it be machine cuttings?
They should tell you also how much material and it should be say as an example 12 inches long, by 12 inches wide, by 2...
Recommend you contact Dr. James Milke at the Univ of Maryland. They are one of only two schools that have a Master program in FPE and he may have a contact in NC that can help you. You can reach him at 301-405-3995. Best regards.
We are trying to determine how much U metel, machine cuttings, to use in a test to see if a new extinguishing agent is viable.
1. How much should the U metal machine cuttings weigh?
2. If we test it on a solid piece of U metal what should the size and weight of the U metal be?
3. How many...
Tstead, Tim U metal will burn and especially U metal machine cuttings. The cuttings can be ignited with a cigarette lighter or even a match. Solid pieces, as well as machine cuttings, can spontaniously ignite through oxidation. Many companys that are involved with U metal disposal or...
1. How much should U metal machine cuttings weigh when used to test out a new fire extinguishing agent?
2. Should a solid piece of U metal be used?
3. If a solid piece how large a piece should be used to test out the agent?
4. If a solid piece is used how do you ignite it?
5. How many...
1. How much U metal should be used to test out and verify that a new fire extinguishing agent is effective on U fires?
2. Should the U metal be machine cuttings? If yes how much should the cuttings weight? Should a solid piece of U metal be used?
3. If a solid piece of U metal is to be used...
