In recent posts we discussed how ventilation of smoke slows for cooling of the fire compartment, slows fire spread, and improves conditions and safety for firefighters. But what happens when ventilation is not an option? Short answer - fire gas cooling! Fine, controlled sprays of water into the hot smoke layer to cool the smoke and therefore reduce the amount of radiant heat it emits. Like anything however, there are inherent risks involved - which is why firefighters require specialised training.
