Development of a Small-Scale Test Facility for Effectiveness Evaluation of Fixed-Bed Regenerators
(Elsevier, 2020-06-25)Fixed-bed regenerators (FBR) transfer heat (and moisture) between supply and exhaust air streams in heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC) systems to reduce building energy consumption. This paper presents a ... -

Effects of Variations in Incident Heat Flux When Using Cone Calorimeter Test Data for Prediction of Full-Scale Heat Release Rates of Polyurethane Foam
(Wiley, 2016)The development of methods to predict full-scale fire behaviour using small-scale test data is of great interest to the fire community. This study evaluated the ability of one model, originally developed during the European ... -
Predicting Mechanical Strength of In-Use Firefighter Protective Clothing using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
(Springer, 2018)The exact lifespan of in-use firefighter protective clothing is difficult to predict due to the large variations in use between individual garments. Furthermore, testing methods used to evaluate new protective clothing are ...
