I have a Masters in Fire and Explosion Engineering from Leeds University in 2015, my undergraduate is in chemical engineering. Currently living in Nigeria and working as logistics and customer analyst. In my country we don't have a lot of fire and explosion safety opportunities. I wish to work in Fire safety Engineering jobs abroad. How can I get to work with your company.
I really like these videos from Warrington, they explain things very well and are good to show builders and architects to help them understand the requirements of the Australian National Construction Code.
So the pilot burner on the arm that comes out is only used to start ignition? It is the panel above the specimen that is providing heat to keep the fire burning on the specimen. I take it that the pilot burner is introduced on the hot end, then the sample burns until the flame goes out, and it goes out because the flaming panel above the sample is not providing enough ''radiant flux/heat' to keep the sample burning. The measurement is taken when the sample stops burning. Therefore, a high number is better than a low number, because you need a higher radiant heat to keep the sample burning? i.e - if the sample stopped burning after it just started, it would be closest to the burning panel above it, and be subjected to the highest radiant heat available.
