Abstract

This research outlines the problems of fire extinguishing in tanks, and describes a projected model of an experimental installation for the vertical tank fire simulation. The research also describes a method of extinguishing fires of oil and petroleum products in vertical steel tanks by supplying low expansion foam to the tank base directly into the fuel layer. The time of diesel fuel and gasoline fires extinguishing with the help of general and special purpose fire-fighting foam agents was calculated. Experimental investigations on definition of the fire-extinguishing efficiency of domestically producted fire-fighting foam agents by subsurface fire extinguishing of tanks were carried out.
