Multiple Type Discriminating Mine Fire Sensors
Multiple Type Discriminating Mine Fire Sensors J.C. Edwards, R.A. Franks, G.F. Friel, C.P. Lazzara, and J.J. Opferman NIOSH/Pittsburgh Research Laboratory Pittsburgh, PA 15236-0070 ABSTRACT It was determined that a selection of different types of fire sensors could be used to discriminate mine fires from nuisance emissions produced by diesel equipment. A neural network (NN) was developed for ap...
متن کاملIn-mine Evaluation of Underground Fire
The current s t a t e of the a r t of f i r e and smoke detect ion technology i s reviewed from the standpoint of s u i t a b i l i t y f o r use i n underground metal and nonmetal mines. Detection modes, f i r e signatures, and environmental considerat ions a r e included. Preliminary r e s u l t s of longterm, in-mine t e s t s a r e presented.

? deeply regret to record the death of Mr. John Harty at the age of 47, which occurred on March 10th. Mr. Harty was born in Ireland and received his medical education at Queen's College, Cork, and graduated M.B., B.Ch., B.A.O., in the ttoyal University of Ireland in 1902. After spending several years at Halifax in general practice he decided to specialise in car, nose and throat work, and studi...
متن کاملCO dispersion from a coal fire in a mine entry
Five mine fire experiments were conducted in a 2.08 m high and 2.90 m wide, ventilated mine entry in the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)’s Safety Research Coal Mine (SRCM) to determine the effect of the dispersion of carbon monoxide (CO) on mine fire detection. CO measurements were made at distances from 7.6 m to 45.2 m downwind from the fire with diffusion mode CO...
متن کاملMine Fire Source Discrimination Using Fire Sensors and Neural Network Analysis
Fire experiments were conducted in the Safety Research Coal Mine (SRCM) at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, Pittsburgh Research Laboratory, with coal, diesel-fuel, electricalcable, conveyor-belt, and metal-cutting fire sources to determine the response of fire sensors to productsof-combustion (POC). Metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) and smoke fire sensors demonstrated an...
