Solid Inflammability Boundary at Low Speed (SIBAL)
2001
This research program is concerned with the effect of low speed flow on the spreading and extinction processes of flames over solid fuels. We are particularly interested in the flammability boundary and the near-limit flame behavior in a microgravity environment. Primary attention is given to flame propagation in concurrent flow - the more hazardous situation from the point of view of fire safety. Both theoretical modeling and experimental research are in progress. This project passed the Science Concept Review (SCR) in 1996. As a result, the experiment continues on the flight definition path, and is currently scheduled to be performed in the Space Station Fluids and Combustion Facility (FCF).
