3. Free Convective Heat Transfer Across Inclined Air Layers

Author

Hollands, K. G. T., Unny, T. E., Raithby, G. D., and Konicek, L.

Abstract

This paper presents new experimental measurements on free convective heat transfer rates through inclined air layers of high aspect ratio, heated from below. The Rayleigh number range covered is from subcritical to 105; the range of the angle of inclination, φ measured from the horizontal is: 0 < φ < ∼70 deg. Although it was anticipated that the results might be identical to the results for the horizontal layer if one replaced Ra by Ra cos φ, significant departures from this behavior were observed, particularly in the range 1708 < Ra cos φ < 104, 30 deg ≤ φ < 60 deg. A recommended relationship giving the Nusselt number as a function of Ra cos φ and φ is reported. This relationship fits all data closely.

7. Temperature tables for ventilation controlled fires

Author

Konicek, L. and Lie, T. T.

Subjects
nervous system, fire resistance tests, Incendie, musculoskeletal, neural, and ocular physiology, température, temperature, développement de feu, haut degré, essai de résistance au feu, macromolecular substances, Fire, high degree, fire spread
Abstract

Tabulated temperatures are given that describe the temperature course of ventilation controlled fires in buildings during the period of fire growth and period of fire decay for severities of fire commonly met with in practice. They are provided for the purpose of simplifying studies of fire resistance of building components exposed to fire of any severity.

8. Experimental study on behaviour of structural elements made of hot-rolled and cold-formed steels in fire

Author

Konicek, L.

Subjects
Incendie, Fire
Abstract

Two types of open-web steel joists have been designed for the same span and the same loading conditions. The first type of joist was made of hot-rolled steel shapes. Cold-formed steel was used for construction of the second type. The effect of this difference on the behaviour of joists exposed to fire, is investigated in this experimental study.
