Abstract:
The study presents experiment results conducted at a test site. Transport of condensed combustion products at different heights and distances from a model fire source using stationary and mobile modules for aerosol concentration detection was investigated. The optimal measurement height at which combustion products concentration exceeds background values was determined. Changes in the refractive index structure parameter were recorded, indicating fire-induced turbulence.
