I’ve search the net and read that FM200 puts out fire by chemical and physical ways, may I know what exactly does the "chemical and physical" way means? Also I know that it is primarily designed to be activated at the initial stage of a fire, but if I only activate the FM200 system after [...]
I’m doing an experiment where different housing materials undergo a series of tests to prove which one is more durable. One of those tests involves burning them, but I first need to know how to measure fire damage. Does anyone know if there’s a scientific method one can use to measure the damage fire has [...]
I am going to check with the local fire department. I want a thermal-gel I can hook up to a hose. I know that the fires will continue to come here!
TC is spot on! Our aggressive saving of natural forests has created a problem. For the last 50 years we have [...]
The fire extinguisher in our house is over 10 years old. The gauge shows that it is fully charged, and it has never been used. It is dry chemical type ABC. Is it okay to keep it a few more years, and how long should an extinguisher like this normally last?
Fire Extinguishers can stay "usable" [...]
Why fire is always flown according to the air flow, it never give static flame apperance and it never stay at the moment? why it is always un-static in nature?
flame is the visual representation of the chemical reaction where molecules lower their electron states by reacting… it requires oxygen and once it is done there [...]
Lets say the fire had sufficient material to fuel it for hours but I enclose the fire and seal out most of the oxygen, will the fire die out fast, slower or not at all?
Very Fast indeed to make and keep a fire lit u need to have the triangle of fire complete the triangle [...]
I live in an older residential neighborhood (built in 1960) and I’ve always been concerned that there is no fire hydrant on my street. I live in a city too, not out in the country or away from anything. There is one more than a block away. I was wondering if anyone [...]
And I mean close it at a 45 degree angle. Does the fire still shoot up into the top, extinguish, or fills the whole top/cap?
CO2 in the combustion gases is heavier than air. Also, it will enter the cap and be deflected downwards due to the angle and starve the fuel of Oxygen. The [...]
I bought a house that was built in 1982, but it does not have a fire place. Is it possible to install a fire place in the house post completion?
on an exterior wall it’s feasible but expensive. an interior wall presents a problem with the chimney and the foundation needed to support it. a fireplace [...]
That might not be the best word. I don’t know if they melt or bust, but if I set a fire long enough to burn the grass in a specific small area. Would the diamonds go too?
Diamonds are inflammable. Nothing would happen to them in a normal campfire in terms of burning.
Now, diamond carbon [...]
