This article analyzes the calculated fire curve in accordance with the ignition heat source in the compartment. To predict the calculated fire curve, the exponential equation proposed in the previous study was compared with the heat release rate measured in a fire experiment. The lag index, which is the main factor used to predict the time it will take to reach the maximum heat release rate, has decreased in proportion to the ignition heat source.
Keywords: fire calculation curve, pipe insulation, ignition heat source, deceleration index, heat release rate
In this article, we investigate the effectiveness of using multiple pipes for heat dissipation. The study assumes laminar flow under steady-state conditions. Various mixtures are numerically investigated at different flow rates. Various nanofluids flowing through multiple parallel pipes have been numerically investigated to study the effects of temperature rise. Thanks to the benefits they bring to the cooling process, nanofluids have opened up a new way to improve the performance of thermal systems. A typical nanofluid consists of a base fluid, which is usually water, and nanoparticles.
