Probabilistic methods in fire risk analysis. - 236 p.

The first part of this work outlines a method for assessing the frequency of ignition of a consumer product in a building and shows how the method would be used in an example scenario utilizing upholstered furniture as the product and radiant auxiliary heating devices (electric heaters, wood stoves) as the ignition source. Deterministic thermal models of the heat transport processes are coupled with parameter uncertainty analysis of the models and with a probabilistic analysis of the events involved in a typical scenario. This leads to a distribution for the frequency of ignition for the product.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a In the second part, fire risk analysis as currently used in nuclear plants is outlined along with a discussion of the relevant uncertainties. The use of the computer code COMPBRN is discussed for use in the fire growth analysis along with the use of response surface methodology to quantify uncertainties in the code's use. Generalized response surfaces are developed for temperature versus time for a cable tray, as well as a surface for the hot gas layer temperature and depth for a room of arbitrary geometry within a typical nuclear power plant compartment. These surfaces are then used to simulate the cable tray damage time in a compartment fire experiment. Insights and problems in the use of response surface techniques in this context are presented.
