Abstract: A fire suppression composition comprises CF3I and CO2, wherein said CF3I is present in an amount of from 23 mol. % to 39 mol. %, based on the total moles of CF3I and CO2 present in the fire suppression composition. Alternatively, the fire suppression composition comprises CF3I and CO2, wherein said CF3I is present in an amount of from 53 mol. % to 85 mol. %, based on the total moles of CF3I and CO2 present in the fire suppression composition.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for evaluating inerting concentration of a fire suppression agent. The method includes flowing air upward into a chimney tube and flowing fuel into the flowing air in the chimney tube. A targeted concentration of the fire suppression agent is introduced into the flowing air and into the flowing fuel in the chimney tube. An ignitor is ignited to provide ignition energy to the flowing air and the flowing fuel, and the ignitor is deactivated. The targeted concentration of the fire suppression agent is at or above the inerting concentration of the fire suppression agent if combustion of the flowing fuel does not persist beyond three seconds after the ignitor is deactivated.

Abstract: According to an aspect of the present disclosure, an aerosol concentration sensor calibration device includes a mixing column, a sensor, and a collection vessel. The mixing column extends in a vertical orientation between an inlet at a bottom of the mixing column and an outlet at a top of the mixing column, the mixing column configured to receive a mixture of a powder and a compressed gas at the inlet. The sensor is disposed in the mixing column and configured to measure the concentration of the powder in the mixing column. The collection vessel has an inlet fluidly coupled to the outlet of the mixing column. The collection vessel is configured to collect the powder received from the mixing column.

Abstract: A system includes a pressure vessel defining an interior space with a discharge outlet. A valve or burst disc is connected in fluid communication with the discharge outlet. Discharge piping is included in fluid communication with the valve or burst disc to receive discharge from the interior space. One or more discharge nozzles are in fluid commination with discharge piping for issuing a spray from the discharge piping into the environment external of the pressure vessel. A mixture of liquid Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and a dry chemical fire extinguishing agent is housed under pressure within the interior space.

Abstract: A fire suppression system in an aircraft includes a first nozzle within a region to perform discharge of a fire suppression agent in a first direction within a region. The systems also includes a second nozzle within the region to perform discharge of the fire suppression agent in a second direction within the region. The discharge in the first direction by the first nozzle and the discharge in the second direction by the second nozzle generate and maintain a vortex of the fire suppression agent that occupies the region with rotational flow.
