2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis report describes experiments and their results in determining the responses of a prototype smoke detector and a commercially available photoelectric smoke detector to smoke particles generated from various combustion sources.
-
9/1/2007 - Conference papersThis paper reviews how simultaneous application of three basic elements reduces the methane explosion hazard at coal mine working faces: (1) adequate ventilation, (2) regular monitoring of gas concentrations, and (3) elimination of ignition sources.
-
2/1/2009 - Conference papersThis paper discusses some ways to find extra usable air when there is no extra ventilation capacity.
-
5/1/2004 - Conference papersDiscusses implementation of a real-time neural network which can discriminate mine fires from nuisance diesel emissions as part of an atmospheric mine monitoring system in NIOSH's Safety Research Coal Mine.
-
10/1/2002 - Conference papersResults of experiments to train a neural network to detect coal and styrene-butadiene-rubber conveyor belting fires. Six of the seven experiments were conducted in the presence of diesel exhaust.
-
6/1/2002 - Conference papersAn evaluation of multiple mine fire sensor types for nuisance alarm discrimination. The response of multiple fire sensor types to three small coal fires and three small conveyor belt fires in the presence of diesel emissions was evaluated.
-
4/1/2000 - Conference papersReport on the application of a neural-network program using mine sensor data to classify the type of fire.
-
6/1/1999 - Conference papersA report on a series of four coal combustion experiments conducted at the NIOSH (PRL) Safety Research Coal Mine (SRCM) to evaluate the response of fire sensors to a small 0.61 m square smoldering coal fire which transitions to flaming combustion in the ...
-
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.
-
10/1/1996 - Conference papersReports on the application of near infrared sensor technology for the automatic guidance of a continuous haulage system
