More Book Details
Description of the Book:
The conduct of full scale fast cookoff or liquid fuel fire tests in Australia is becoming increasingly important as Australia moves to adopt and implement an official policy on Insensitive Munitions. EOD-Salisbury has considerable experience in the development and conduct of these tests, and some relevant findings are summarized here. This report is presented in five Sections: Section 1 introduces the official Australian Insensitive Munitions policy, Section 2 discusses the various fast cookoff test specifications which exist both internationally and in Australia, Section 3 describes the results of a number of trials conducted to measure the spatial distribution of temperature within a liquid fuel fire, in order to firstly establish an upper wind limit for such tests, and secondly to locate the ‘hottest’ region of the fire, Section 4 examines meteorological (wind) conditions at three potential fast cookoff test sites in Australia, and Section 5 briefly summarizes the report’s findings
