Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fire simulation, and in particular to a backfire test device for fire simulation. Background Technology
[0002] Reignition, also known as deflagration, flashover, or resurgence, refers to the explosive and violent combustion that occurs when a large amount of fresh air rushes into a fire scene that was previously in an oxygen-deficient environment.
[0003] Flashback typically occurs in poorly ventilated indoor fires. When a room door is suddenly opened, or when the fire environment is disrupted, a large amount of air rushes in, causing the indoor oxygen concentration to rise rapidly. This brings the flammable gas mixture into the range of its explosive limits, resulting in an explosion or rapid combustion.
[0004] To better conduct fire rescue operations, fire brigades often conduct backfire simulation experiments. Traditional backfire simulation experiments are usually conducted in empty rooms. However, using empty rooms for backfire simulation experiments is not convenient, is costly, and makes it difficult to collect experimental data. Utility Model Content

[0007] (II) Technical Solution
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted by this utility model include:
[0009] A fire-fighting simulation flashback test device includes a flashback chamber, a combustion rack, and a movable frame. The combustion rack is installed inside the flashback chamber, and the movable frame is provided at the lower part of the flashback chamber.
[0010] A first air inlet is provided on one side of the combustion chamber, and a second air inlet is provided on the other side of the combustion chamber. A first air damper is provided on the first air inlet, and a second air damper is provided on the second air inlet.
[0011] The interior of the combustion chamber is lined with several temperature sensors.
[0012] A smoke sensor is installed in the upper part of the interior of the combustion chamber.
[0013] Furthermore, the combustion chamber is also equipped with a gas ignition source interface, and the gas ignition source interface is equipped with a sealing cover.
[0014] Furthermore, the mobile frame is connected to the lower part of the combustion chamber via several weight sensors.
[0015] Furthermore, the combustion chamber is also provided with an observation port, and the observation port is fitted with an observation window.
[0016] Furthermore, there are two first air inlets, and one of the first air dampers is connected to one of the first air inlets via a hinge.
[0017] Furthermore, the second damper is connected to the second air inlet via a hinge.
[0018] Furthermore, the combustion chamber is composed of six heat insulation panels, the interior of which is filled with heat insulation material.
[0019] Furthermore, it also includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the temperature sensor, the smoke sensor and the weight sensor respectively.
[0020] (III) Beneficial Effects
[0021] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: When it is necessary to simulate the flashback phenomenon during fire simulation, combustibles can be placed on the combustion rack and ignited. Then, the first and second air dampers are closed. After the flame is extinguished due to lack of oxygen, the first air damper can be opened to allow external air to enter the flashback chamber through the first air inlet, and the flashback phenomenon can be observed. Then, the first air damper is closed again to extinguish the flame due to lack of oxygen. Then, the first and second air dampers are opened simultaneously to allow a large amount of external air to enter the flashback chamber through the first and second air inlets, and a more intense flashback phenomenon can be observed. At the same time, the temperature sensor is used to stabilize the temperature, and the smoke concentration and composition are analyzed by the smoke sensor. This allows for better and more convenient simulation experiments of the flashback phenomenon, reduces costs, and facilitates the collection of experimental data. Attached Figure Description

After the flame is extinguished due to lack of oxygen, the first air door 2 can be opened to allow external air to enter the flashback box 1 through the first air inlet and observe the flashback phenomenon. Then, the first air door 2 is closed to extinguish the flame due to lack of oxygen. Then, the first air door 2 and the second air door 7 are opened simultaneously to allow a large amount of external air to enter the flashback box 1 through the first air inlet and the second air inlet, and observe a more intense flashback phenomenon.

[0036] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to use the weight sensor 6 to sense the consumption of burning materials and reflect the degree to which the fire is affected by ventilation.
[0037] Furthermore, the combustion chamber 1 is also provided with an observation port, and an observation window 4 is embedded in the observation port.
[0038] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to observe the combustion situation inside the combustion chamber 1 through the observation window 4.
[0039] Furthermore, there are two first air inlets, and one of the first air dampers 2 is connected to one of the first air inlets via a hinge.
[0040] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to observe the backfire situation by opening different numbers of the first air doors 2.
[0041] Furthermore, the second damper 7 is connected to the second air inlet via a hinge.
[0042] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to observe the backfire situation by opening the second air door 7.
[0043] Furthermore, the combustion chamber 1 is composed of six heat insulation panels, and the interior of the heat insulation panels is filled with heat insulation material 8.
[0044] As can be seen from the above description, it is beneficial to reduce the heat loss from the combustion chamber 1 by using the heat insulation material 8.
[0045] Furthermore, it also includes a controller, which is electrically connected to the temperature sensor 10, the smoke sensor 9 and the weight sensor 6 respectively.
[0046] As can be seen from the above description, it is advantageous to receive signals from the temperature sensor 10, the smoke sensor 9, and the weight sensor 6 through the controller. Example 1
