4/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper discusses large-scale experiments conducted by NIOSH to evaluate the effectiveness of optical flame detectors, photoelectric smoke detectors, and combined ionization/photoelectric smoke detectors for detecting mining equipment cab fires.
-
4/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis report describes experiments, their results, and how these results apply to early-warning fire sensors capable of rapid and reliable detection of fires in atmospheres that could be contaminated by either airborne dust or diesel engine products.
-
12/1/2008 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis paper describes the in-mine evaluation of a smart mine fire sensor system and discusses recommendations for improving the system.

4/1/2000 - Conference papersReport on the application of a neural-network program using mine sensor data to classify the type of fire.
-
8/1/1998 - Conference papersSeveral experimental programs were conducted at the Pittsburgh Research Center to investigate the level of mine fire detection and alarm capability possible using state-of-the-art technology.
-
5/1/1997 - Reports of InvestigationsA report evaluating a wireless signaling and warning system for underground mines applicable to both coal and non-coal mines. A TeleMagnetic Signalling Systems wireless ultra-low-frequency electromagnetic signaling system was installed and tested.
-
1/1/1995 - Reports of InvestigationsA report on research to determine the alarm times of smoke and carbon monoxide sensors and a point type heat sensor to slowly developing coal-conveyor belt fires.
-
10/1/1978 - Conference papersThe current state of the art of fire and smoke detection technology is reviewed from the standpoint of suitability for use in underground metal and nonmetal mines. Detection modes, fire signatures, and environmental considerations are included. Prelimin...
