To by mě zajímalo, jak by chutnaly vuřty nebo klobásy opečené nad tím požárem. To kdysi na stavbě zedníci ze Slovenska pálili stavební dřevěné podlážky a pak přiložili celé dveře a když se to pěkně rozhořelo, tak přivalili ohromnou pneumatiku z traktoru a vyndali si uzeniny z batohu, napíchli je na pruty a začali si je opékat a libovali si, jak jsou super opečené..

The "pre-plan" and other plans at the FM insured QVC warehouse in Rocky Mount, NC didn't work out so well. According to the ATF report (which failed to find a cause for the fire), "The fire, now declared to be the largest structural fire in N.C. history, claimed the life of employee Kevon Ricks and destroyed approximately 75% of the 1.5 million square foot facility." Can't be sure, but from pictures it would appear the MFL walls held. Must have been a big loss for FM. I wonder who they blamed, probably the last engineer. The crap usually rolls downhill. Stupid reports from ATF and fire dept. fail to explain how fire got out of control.

At 0:11. If firm’s operations management turns off sprinklers before arrival of the fire brigade, might as well not call them. They will find a fire beyond their ability to intervene. This facility, or another just like it, went from pride of FM Global’s fire protection engineering prowess to a heap of burned rubble due to someone thinking they knew better. If there’s smoke, leave the valves ON.

I worked at FM for nearly 9 years as both a field consultant and account exec for engineering, and one of the most rewarding experiences was going to the Research Campus to witness testing. As part of our early training, they even sent us to the FM Global Fire-brigade training school, where our customers in very heavy industry/chemical, often in rural areas, could send their own fire brigade teams to learn how to fight specific industrial fires. One of my coolest experiences ever!! I would be interested for this side-by-side test, what commodity was tested, ceiling height (the moveable ceiling is adjustable up to 65ft), sprinkler K factor, and design (GPM/Sprinkler x Sprinklers used.(

Notice how the smoke is rising freely and directly upwards. This is thanks to a generous and well ventilated building. That smoke can be combustible gas products and/or highly toxic smoke. Hardly what you would want in anything but an ideal situation like a dedicated structure remote from other structures, certainly not bolted to the side of a home.

I was convinced! It's a very nice video! After searching for a long time, I finally found the video I wanted. It can be seen from this that at least people's safety can be guaranteed. Because what I was worried about was that once it caught fire, it would be like fireworks and all disappear in a short period, but from this experiment, it seems that is not the case. Once fuel vehicles (ICE) are severely damaged, they can quickly burn or even explode. Looking at the burning speed of LFPO, we can see that it is much safer than ordinary fuel vehicles and lithium batteries. So I guess, if you don’t use high temperatures to get close to the LFP battery, but rely solely on physical impact and short-circuit testing, I think it should be difficult for LFPO to spontaneously ignite. Please correct me if I'm wrong. 🙏

The problem is when these vent and build up a high volume of gas inside of a close space at some point something ignites the gas. If you have a vent to keep the gas from building up, they are safe even if cell melts down. I would not operate one inside my home mounted outside is safe.
@nielsdaemen
@nielsdaemen Ай бұрын
In the worst case scenario, the cells can offgas the extremely flamable gasses without igniting, and then when an explosive mixture has build up in the room, any small spark will blow the whole house apart!

How is this indicative of fire hazard of Lithium Iron? They used a huge propane torch to cook off the batteries. If your facility is ON FIRE already, you have OTHER problems. A USEFUL test would have been extreme condition testing, hot summer day, fastest possible discharge. There should be NO danger in charge cycle as there should be fan cooling and or temperature sensors throughout stack to turn off charging and sound alarm.

It shows how slowly they burn relative to NMC or NCA batteries. Were something to catch LFP batteries on fire, they burn slowly and don't explode.

Thank you for stating that these should be stored outside and away from the building. This video was very informative. We are seeing more and more of these plastic and single wall metal transportation IBC's at fixed facilities for use and storage of flammable and combustible liquids without a UL listing. The concern is the storage of flammable liquids with low flash points. In transportation, the metal IBC's are inspected every 5 years. Once they get to a fixed facility, they are no longer inspected. Then there is the question about bonding and grounding of the plastic IBC's for transfer of flammable liquids. I have not seen the last IBC you show with the double wall containment and top filling and dispensing.

LFP batteries are safe if they are protected from short circuits. You can drill through the battery and nothing dramatic will happen But what this battery doesn't like is being heated to over 300°C from the outside Then the plastic of the cables burns.

Before I retired the company would have what they called a Worldwide Conference at the Boca Raton Resort and Club, (a Waldorf Astoria Resort). I'm not sure of the business purpose, but there was a lot of good food and drink for several days, and some activities. I went on the group bicycle tour. There were speakers, the best of which I recall the astronaut/air force officer/M.D. who related a precarious situation on a space station and some lady who climbed Mt. Everest on her second attempt. There was also a street artist and a pair of jugglers/comedians. These were insteresting people interspersed with boring FM managers who sounded like Charlie Brown's teacher to my mind. These "conferences" were pre-pandemic and attended by employees from all over the world. I'm sure it cost the company an astronomical fortune. There wasn't any work or real training to do, so it was almost fun within the tightly circumscribed world of work.

I remember Data Sheet 8-9 that had flowcharts that referred to flowcharts that referred to other flowcharts. I thought they should have developed apps to handle that for you. I also remember a training class on the major revision to 8-9 roughly ten years ago where they admitted there was a fair amount of guesstimate involved in the old standard. I'm not sure which was worse, DS 8-9 or the windstorm crap. I'm just so glad I'm retired and don't have to care about it anymore.

It was a pretty good company to work for, but I am so very glad I was able to retire early. I no longer worry about complaint emails, tedious report writing and long boring meetings and training that could have been handled with an email. An awful lot of fat could be trimmed from management ranks, but still they muddle through generally with pretty good results despite them.

I believe I released too much air during the monthly drain down or not fully turn off the water valve; I don’t know so I got a red light in my fire panel. Can you explain what triggered the panel light ? Was it the accelerator pushing the clapper up ( but after opening it chambers the clapper was close) or the air pressure switch.

ohhhh so this is why storage systems sometimes get designed with small hose connections around the racks. The idea must be for a rack to be controlled like this and for the FD to finish it up with a 1 1/2" connection. But still most FDs would probably just go in with a line from the pumper.
