Definitions
- the present invention relates to a fire extinguisher comprising an extinguishing agent with a low concentration of saturating vapor.
- Halons are brominated halogenated chemical compounds.
- the Halons have the advantage of having a high vapor pressure even cold allowing to have even in the low temperature conditions a gas concentration greater than the extinction concentration.
- the extinguishing concentration is a quantity indicated by the supplier of that extinguishing agent. It indicates the minimum volume concentration of extinguishing agent to be delivered to the atmosphere in order to extinguish a fire related to the combustion of a given material.
- the extinguishing concentration is commonly evaluated according to ISO 14520 by cup-burner test.
- the extinction concentration is given as a temperature independent quantity.
- Halons are polluting products, sources of the depletion of the ozone layer whose use is the object of increasingly strict regulatory prohibitions. It is also expected that Halons will no longer be available in the 2030s.
- the use of Halon as an extinguishing agent is therefore an environmentally unsatisfactory interim solution that is desirable to replace.
- various extinguishing agents that do not have the adverse effects of Halon have been developed.
- Such extinguishing agents have a low saturation vapor pressure and are more environmentally friendly than Halons.
- An example of an existing low saturation vapor pressure suppressant is FK-5-1-12. It is also known as Novec TM 1230. These extinguishing agents work with known extinguishing devices.
- the manufacturer specifies a minimum temperature of use below which the agent condenses before reaching this effective concentration and therefore can not extinguish a fire.
- the manufacturer specifies a minimum temperature of use below which the agent condenses before reaching this effective concentration and therefore can not extinguish a fire.
- the supplier explicitly states that its product is not usable at temperatures lower than or equal to -10 ° C. Below this temperature limit of use, the saturating vapor concentration of these extinguishing agents is lower than their extinction concentration. In this case, the gaseous extinguishing agent in the gaseous state with the known devices is not present in sufficient concentration to extinguish the fire when the temperature is too low, hence the existence of this temperature limit use.
- the invention aims, according to a first embodiment, a fire extinguisher comprising at least:
- a body defining a storage chamber containing an extinguishing agent, a gas generator configured to pressurize the extinguishing agent in order to distribute it outside the body through an outlet orifice,
- the fire extinguisher being characterized in that the outlet orifice is provided with a misting nozzle, and in that the extinguishing agent has a solidification temperature below -10 ° C, the concentration of saturating vapor of the extinguishing agent taken at -10 ° C and at 1 bar being lower than the extinction concentration of the extinguishing agent determined according to ISO 14520 for a heptane fire at 1 bar.
- the "saturating vapor concentration of the extinguishing agent taken at -10 ° C and 1 bar" is equal to the following ratio: [saturated vapor pressure of the extinguishing agent at -10 ° C ] / [1 bar].
- the extinguishing concentration can be determined according to ISO standard 14520, 3rd edition published in December 2015.
- the invention also aims, according to a second embodiment, a fire extinguisher comprising at least:
- a body defining a storage chamber containing an extinguishing agent
- a gas generator configured to pressurize the extinguishing agent in order to distribute it outside the body through an outlet orifice
- the fire extinguisher being characterized in that the outlet orifice is provided with a misting nozzle, and in that the extinguishing agent has a solidification temperature of less than -10 ° C and a pressure of saturated steam less than or equal to 70 mbar at -10 ° C.
- the invention implements, in its two embodiments described above, an extinguishing agent with a low concentration of saturating vapor, at low temperature, with regard to the need for extinction.
- the first embodiment is directed to extinguishing agents, at any saturated vapor pressure, for which the saturation vapor concentration at 1 bar and at -10 ° C is lower than the quenching concentration.
- the second embodiment is specifically aimed at extinguishing agents with low saturation vapor pressure at -10 ° C. These extinguishing agents have in fact a low saturation vapor concentration with regard to the need for extinction at low temperature.
- the fire extinguisher implements a misting nozzle which makes it possible to generate a mist formed by fine liquid droplets of the extinguishing agent during use.
- a misting nozzle is a type of ejection nozzle known per se (referred to in English as the "misting nozzle").
- the inventors found that fine liquid droplets were properly transported to the fire zone by the flow of gas, at low temperature.
- the invention makes it possible to extinguish below the limit temperature of use indicated by the manufacturer of the extinguishing agent because both the liquid phase (fine droplets) and the gaseous phase of the extinguishing agent are transported to the fire zone and participate in extinction.
- quenching is provided in the invention by a two-phase quenching agent stream prior to contact with the fire zone.
- the invention thus provides a solution for achieving fire suppression at low temperature while employing a quenching agent with low concentration of saturating vapor.
- This is a problem of which no suitable solution is currently proposed in the state of the art, the use of low saturating vapor dehumidifying agents at low temperature being even explicitly indicated as to avoid by some suppliers.
- the inventors have found that the extinction performance obtained at low temperature using the fire extinguisher according to the invention were particularly high, and more particularly higher than those obtained at higher temperatures. This allows in particular to use a lower concentration for the extinguishing agent to extinguish a fire at low temperatures, and thus reduce the weight of the fire extinguisher.
- an extinguishing agent with a low saturation vapor pressure is advantageous because it is not very volatile, and therefore has a low impact on the environment.
- the ratio, taken at the temperature of 20 ° C, [density of the extinguishing agent] / [surface tension extinguishing agent - air] is greater than or equal to 120000 s 2 / m 3 .
- Such a characteristic makes it possible to reduce the size of the droplets formed and to further increase the quantity of extinguishing agent transported by the flow towards the fire at low temperature, thus improving the quenching efficiency.
- the extinguishing agent has a viscosity at -10 ° C. of less than or equal to 2 centistokes.
- Such a feature is advantageous in order to decrease the pressure required to deliver a given liquid agent flow rate, thereby further facilitating the flow of extinguishing agent to the fire zone.
- the gas generator is configured to impose a maximum pressure greater than or equal to 3 bar, for example greater than or equal to 7 bar, to the extinguishing agent.
- Such a characteristic makes it possible to reduce the size of the droplets formed and to further increase the quantity of extinguishing agent transported by the flow towards the fire at low temperature, thus improving the quenching efficiency.
- the misting nozzle is capable of generating liquid droplets of extinguishing agent of size less than or equal to 50 ⁇ m at -10 ° C.
- Such a characteristic advantageously makes it possible, by using particularly fine droplets, to further improve the extinction efficiency at low temperature and thus to limit the effective concentration to extinguish the fire.
- the misting nozzle may be capable of generating liquid droplets of extinguishing agent with a size of less than or equal to 10 ⁇ m at -10.degree.
- the gas generator comprises a pyrotechnic gas generator.
- a pyrotechnic gas generator is advantageous with respect to the use of a pressurized gas cylinder in order, on the one hand, to limit the sensitivity to the temperature of the pressure generated and, on the other hand to obtain a pressure profile imposed on the quenching agent which is almost constant as a function of time, thus further improving the quenching efficiency at low temperature.
- the gas generator comprises a pressurized gas cylinder.
- the gas generator is present in a pressurization chamber separated from the storage chamber by a movable wall, the gas generator being configured to move the movable wall in order to distribute the agent. extinguishing outside the body.
