SIMULATION THE PROCESSES OF ORGANIC MATERIALS DESTRUCTION AND COMBUSTION PROCESSES CONDITION OF FIRE INTENSEICATION

Abstract

Problem statement. The rapid occurrence and development of fires are caused by the occurrence of combustible materials and structures in their focus. This complicates, and in some cases makes impossible, effective firefighting, evacuation, and rescue of people and property. In order to correctly assess fire resistance, effectively increase fire resistance, and change the flammability of materials, it is necessary to study the materials burning process. The purpose of the article. To study of the combustion of easily dispersible substances and the development of gaseous reactions and their combination using the example of wood combustion. Methods. We use mathematical modeling of combustion and destructive processes under the high temperatures, taking into account the rules of thermodynamics. Research results. The conducted analysis showed that the selection of the main stages in the simulation of wood combustion is much less developed than in the case of the combustion of gas systems. It is especially difficult to do this to describe the combustion of wood, on the surface of which there is an interaction of masses (and heat) during the combustion of individual components, and the size of the front surface per unit cross-section of the sample may also change over time. Therefore, the definition of the main stage in wood burning should be used mainly in the qualitative analysis of the process, and quantitative models of wood burning should be built, if possible, taking into account all the determining factors characterizing the phenomena. Scientific novelty. For the first time, on the basis of the modeling of organic material combustion is proposed. We determine the patterns of destructive processes, which, depending on the temperature, have common patterns of qualitative and quantitative characteristics. The chemical phasing and its connection with the physical phasing of the transformation of combustible organic materials dispersed in the surface layer with the overall thermal effect of the combustion wave were determined. Practical value. The identification of stages during the wave burning of wood allows for a qualitative display of processes depending on the spatial zone and its distance from the gas zone, which allows predicting the development of protective means of organic materials against combustion.
