ENHANCING SHIP FIREHYDRANT’S AND ELECTRICAL CABLE DUCT’S FIRE HEATTRANFER

Journal Title: World Journal of Engineering Research and Technology - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4

Abstract

In case of fire, the temperature of the fire hydrants steel parts will increase accordingly which lead residue water to evaporate inside the fire hydrants causing high pressure stress to the internal parts. Also, electrical cable duct are subject for temperature increase, this incensements might melts electric cable covers and led to electric shocks catastrophe. In this research paper, a new inexpensive and resalable isolation blanket is proposed to reduce the effect of fire heat transfer. A Finite Element analysis of Heat Conduction simulation is carried out using ABAQUS CAE software to verify the effectiveness of the suggested blanket, the results shows that heat conductions are reduced by 65% with isolation blanket in comparison without isolation blanket.
