Advance Fire Extinguishers for Aircraft Habitable Compartments.

Abstract

The report describes the results of a program aimed at developing and optimizing portable one-quart and two-gallon size extinguishers for use with a new foamed halon agent (Halon Foam). The program involved several tasks including the study of material compatibility of common materials of construction with Halon Foam; comparative effects of Halon Foam and CB on electronic circuits; optimization of extinguisher system and subsequent testing on several fire condigurations; and appropriate specification development.
