Smoke Abatement System for Crash Rescue/Fire Training Facilities

Abstract

This report provides the design for a smoke-abated aircraft crash/ rescue trainer. The design is for a 75-ft diameter fire area suitable for operation in freezing and nonfreezing climates. With this system liquid petroleum fuels can be burned with little or no smoke by injecting a fine water spray near the surface of the burning fuel. This method of smoke abatement is being applied at military fire fighting training facilities. The report includes all equipment necessary for the smoke abatement function and provides detailed step-by-step operating procedures.
