IS7201 FIRE ENGINEERING AND EXPLOSION CONTROL L T P C 4 0 0 4
UNIT I PHYSICS AND CHEMISTRY OF FIRE 12
Fire properties of solid, liquid and gases - fire spread - toxicity of products of combustion - theory of
combustion and explosion – vapour clouds – flash fire – jet fires – pool fires – unconfined vapour
cloud explosion, shock waves - auto-ignition – boiling liquid expanding vapour explosion – case
studies – Flixborough, Mexico disaster, Pasedena Texas, Piper Alpha, Peterborough and Bombay
Victoria dock ship explosions.
UNIT II FIRE PREVENTION AND PROTECTION 12
Sources of ignition – fire triangle – principles of fire extinguishing – active and passive fire protection
systems – various classes of fires – A, B, C, D, E – types of fire extinguishers – fire stoppers –
hydrant pipes – hoses – monitors – fire watchers – lay out of stand pipes – fire station-fire alarms and
sirens – maintenance of fire trucks – foam generators – escape from fire rescue operations – fire drills
– notice-first aid for burns.
UNIT III INDUSTRIAL FIRE PROTECTION SYSTEMS 12
Sprinkler-hydrants-stand pipes – special fire suppression systems like deluge and emulsifier, selection
criteria of the above installations, reliability, maintenance, evaluation and standards – alarm and
detection systems. Other suppression systems – CO2 system, foam system, dry chemical powder
(DCP) system, halon system – need for halon replacement – smoke venting. Portable extinguishers –
flammable liquids – tank farms – indices of inflammability-fire fighting systems.

UNIT IV BUILDING FIRE SAFETY 12
Objectives of fire safe building design, Fire load, fire resistant material and fire testing – structural fire
protection – structural integrity – concept of egress design - exists – width calculations - fire
certificates – fire safety requirements for high rise buildings – snookers.
UNIT V EXPLOSION PROTECTING SYSTEMS 12
Principles of explosion-detonation and blast waves-explosion parameters – Explosion Protection,
Containment, Flame Arrestors, isolation, suppression, venting, explosion relief of large enclosureexplosion
venting-inert gases, plant for generation of inert gas-rupture disc in process vessels and
lines explosion, suppression system based on carbon dioxide (CO2) and halons-hazards in LPG,
ammonia (NH3), sulphur dioxide (SO3), chlorine (CL2) etc.
