Investigation of the mechanisms of the electromagnetic wave effect on the diffusion flame torch

Abstract

New socio-economic conditions for the development of Russia dictate new requirements for the protection of buildings, equipment and personnel of various facilities from fires and their consequences. In complex fire extinguishing systems, the timeliness of fire detection and the effectiveness of extinguishing is the key to preserving material values and human lives. An urgent task is not only the improvement of existing fire extinguishing systems, but also the development of new systems, the basis of which is based on previously unused approaches. These approaches are based both on the previously known physical and chemical methods of extinguishing fires, and on the methods being investigated and studied at present. One of the promising methods of extinguishing fires is the technology of extinguishing fires using the effect of an electromagnetic field on the diffusion flame. The study of this method involves the analysis of physical processes that are electromagnetic in nature of interaction occurring in the system “diffusion flame torch - electromagnetic wave”. In this work, a quantitative analysis of the parameters affecting the possible mechanisms of interaction of the elements of this system is carried out. A mathematical model of the considered physical processes is presented.
