摘要:
A foam generating device for a fire hose, comprising a socket designed to be attached to a water supply hose, a hose nozzle consisting of a first end wherein air inlets are made and of a second end for spraying the foam, an intermediate body attached between the socket and the first end of the hose nozzle and allowing the creation of several separate water jets passing through. The intermediate body is so arranged as to receive an emulsifying fluid and to pre-mix it with the water jets by aspiration and by contact of the emulsifying fluid with the water jets, then to spray the jets of water-emulsifier premix and to stir them with the air streams in the hose nozzle.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method and an arrangement using compressed-air foam for the stationary fire fighting of burning matter of a two-dimensional or three-dimensional form, in particular in road tunnels, in which method the compressed-air foam produced by a foam generator is delivered to the extinguishing area concerned by means of a main compressed-air foam pipeline and is discharged there in a distributed manner by means of a manifold pipe system.

The compressed air foam and high pressure liquid dispersal system provides a compressed air foam product in addition to concurrently producing a liquid under pressure for decontamination, general cleaning, vapor suppression, Hazmat remediation, fuel spills, and fire suppression support for durable equipment, vehicles, terrain, facilities, and aircraft. The system includes a power plant for powering the compressed air foam and high pressure liquid sub-systems of the system. The high pressure sub-system further includes a boiler for heating the liquid to a temperature above ambient temperature. The boiler and power plant may use the same type of fuel for decreasing the number of fuel supplies to the system. In addition, the power plant drives an air compressor for providing compressed air for powering the compressed air foam sub-system. The power plant further drives a high pressure water pump for pressurizing the water for the high pressure sub-system. The system includes additional features such as an air chuck that feeds off of the compressed air supply for powering pneumatic tools and inflating flat tires present during such cleaning and decontamination. Also, the system includes a 24 VDC electrical system for charging stalled vehicles and the like present during operations.
摘要:
The present invention provides an assembly, sock, and method for generating foam. The assembly includes a housing having a chamber, and a first and second orifice. A fan arranged within the housing draws a flow of air into the chamber through the first orifice and exhausts the flow of air through the second orifice to form an exhausted flow of air. A nozzle is arranged within the chamber and is situated in proximity to the second orifice to allow introduction of a fluid into the exhausted flow of air through the second orifice. A permeable sock includes an inner surface and an outer surface. The sock is arranged to occlude the second orifice in a manner to receive the exhausted flow of air with the fluid at the inner surface.
摘要:
A fire fighting nozzle for extinguishing industrial scale fires including improved automatic pressure regulating features, enhanced educting features including central and peripheral channeling for foam concentrate, and combining with a capacity to throw dry chemical. Improved pressure regulating features include a double acting baffle and preferably a relief valve.
摘要:
A fire fighting adapter that converts a conventional back pack blower, which has a discharge tube with a free end through which blown air is provided, into a water and foam fire fighter. The adapter includes a housing and a diffuser unit. The housing attaches to, and communicates with, the free end of the discharge tube of the conventional back pack blower to receive the blown air therefrom. The diffuser unit is contained in the housing, and diffuses the water and the foam to engage with the blown air from the free end of the discharge tube of the conventional back pack blower so as to be propelled by the blown air out of the housing.
摘要:
A rotary nozzle for compressed air foam (CAF) has a barrel mounted for rotation about an axis perpendicular to its longitudinal axis. The barrel is mounted to a CAF supply conduit and has a cross-sectional area substantially larger than the cross-sectional area of the conduit. Two non-equal orifices in the barrel, located on the opposite sides of the axis of rotation, distribute CAF such that it covers an almost complete, typically a circular area on the ground.
摘要:
A liquid atomization process comprises forming a two-phase fluid mixture of a liquid and a gas, under pressure, dividing the fluid into two separate streams which are passed into and through an impingement mixing zone in which they are impingement mixed to form a single stream of two-phase fluid. The mixed, single stream is then passed into and through a shear mixing zone and then into a lower pressure expansion zone, in which atomization occurs to form a spray of atomized drops of the liquid. The impingement and shear mixing zones comprise respective upstream and downstream portions of a single fluid passageway in a nozzle. This is useful for atomizing the hot feed oil in an FCC process.
