    • Fire Protection of Industrial Process Equipment 

      Bjørge, Joachim Søreng (Doctoral thesis, 2019-12-09)
      Active and passive measures are two main branches in Fire Protection Engineering (FPE). The present thesis, entitled “Fire Protection of Industrial Process Equipment”, studies parts of these topics: 1. A study of the cooling ...

    • Influence of Acetone and Sodium Chloride Additives on Cooling Efficiency of Water Droplets Impinging onto Hot Metal Surfaces 

      Bjørge, Joachim Søreng; Bjørkheim, Svein Arne; Log, Maria-Monika Metallinou; Log, Torgrim; Frette, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-19)
      In the present work, the cooling efficiency of water droplets falling onto hot aluminum and stainless steel discs from heights of 12.5 cm, 25 cm, 50 cm and 100 cm, corresponding to speeds of 1.5 m/s, 2.2 m/s, 3.1 m/s and ...

    • Method for measuring cooling efficiency ofwater droplets impinging onto hot metal discs 

      Bjørge, Joachim Søreng; Metallinou, Maria-Monika; Log, Torgrim; Frette, Øyvind (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06-09)
      The present work outlines a method for measuring the cooling efficiency of droplets impinging onto hot metal discs in the temperature range of 85 °C to 400 °C, i.e., covering the boiling regimes experienced when applying ...

    • Scenario based analysis of fire escalation in a gas process plant 

      Bjørge, Joachim Søreng (Master thesis, 2013-05-28)
      This study takes place on a medium sized gas process plant called reference plant. In this thesis several escalation scenarios, as well as gas dispersion, is evaluated through Kameleon KFX and Vessfire. It has previously ...

    • Small Scale Hydrocarbon Fire Test Concept 

      Bjørge, Joachim Søreng; Metallinou, Maria-Monika; Kraaijeveld, Arjen; Log, Torgrim (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-11-14)
      In the oil and gas industry, hydrocarbon process equipment was previously often thermally insulated by applying insulation directly to the metal surface. Fire protective insulation was applied outside the thermal insulation. ...
