Fire extinguishing systems and methods, such as for combating compartment fires, can include or use wet and dry agents such as water droplets and aerosol-based particulate extinguisher agents. In an example, an extinguishing system includes a centralized extinguishing controller that can selectively provide the wet and dry agents to a compartment or environment. In other examples, dedicated dispenser systems separately, but optionally concurrently, provide water and aerosol-based agents to combat a compartment fire.

A fire fighting vehicle includes a chassis, an engine coupled to the chassis, a fluid tank configured to store a fluid, a fluid delivery system, and a controller. The fluid delivery system includes a first pump, a second pump, a low pressure discharge, a first high pressure discharge, and a second high pressure discharge. The first pump is coupled to the fluid tank and configured to pump the fluid therefrom at a first pressure. The second pump is positioned downstream of and coupled to the first pump in a serial arrangement. The controller is configured to selectively vary at least one of a speed, a power output, and a torque output of the engine and thereby provide the fluid to at least one of the first high pressure discharge and the second high pressure discharge at a target discharge pressure.

A system for fighting fire, includes a timer unit with an electrical power input and out line. The timer is connected to a flow switch that response to water movement. The water movement occurs when the glass bulb shatters in a sprinkler head. The glass bulb contains a fluid which expands when exposed to heat. When the rated temperature is reached, the fluid expands sufficiently to shatter the glass bulb, allowing the sprinkler to activate and water to flow. The flow of the water tells the flow switch to turn on the timer that is set for in this example one hundred and ten seconds. The timer turns on the pump. The pump gets it water from a water tank. The pump forces the water threw the pressurize pipe system to one or more sprinkler heads. The pressure is maintain by check valves, that hold a constant 40 psi. This system is mobile. The system will need to be maintain every six month. After the system puts out a fire it will need be reset.

The present disclosure provides a spray system for a battery pack and a battery pack. The spray system includes a spray pipeline configured to circulate a spray liquid and form an opening when being heating, a liquid storage device communicating with the spray pipeline, and a driving device including a driving component and an elastic component connected to the driving component. The driving component, under an elastic force applied by the elastic component, drives the spray liquid in the liquid storage device to flow into the spray pipeline. In the present spray system, the spray liquid not only in the spray pipeline but in the liquid storage device can be discharged to spray, thereby improving the spray effect, preventing the heat flow generated when the one battery unit is thermally out of control from spreading to the adjacent battery units, and improving the safety of the battery pack.

A composite power generating device of the present invention includes an engine (110), a first flow line (121), a turbocharger (130), a second flow line (122), a third flow line (123), a compressor (211), a first medium line (221), a medium turbine (212), a second medium line (222), a working medium cooler (213), a recuperator (215), a power generating unit (214), a cross-line (233), a first heat exchanger (251), a second heat exchanger (252), and a third heat exchanger (253).

An exterior fire suppression system that includes: a conduit line providing pressurized flow of a fire-suppressing material; a plurality of variable flow spray nozzles coupled to the conduit line and operable to disperse a variable spray of the fire-suppressing material onto the exterior of the building; a pump; a reservoir tank in fluid communication with the pump and the conduit line, the reservoir tank configured to store the fire-suppressing material; a control system operable to control a flow of the fire-suppressing material from the reservoir tank, the pressurized flow of the fire-suppressing material through the conduit line via the pump, and the dispersion of the fire-suppressing material through the plurality of variable flow spray nozzles; and a power supply operably connected to provide electric power to the pump and the control system.

An automatic stovetop fire suppressor with suppressor activation triggering an audible alert of a fire condition and method are provided herein. A plastic bottom lid is secured to a bottom of a can, forming a closed container. A fire suppressing agent and a sound board are housed within the closed container. As the fire suppressor actuator is triggered, the bottom lid lowers releasing the fire suppressing agent and tripping a sound board alert switch. A microcontroller generates a desired fire condition signal which is played across a low voltage magnetic transducer. The suppressor is user friendly, provides an automated release of fire suppressing agent in the presence of a stovetop fire, and emits a continuing audible alert signal until a user disables the same. The fire suppressing agent and battery powered sound board are stored in the closed from manufactured end to activation of the suppressor in a fire condition.

An embodiment of the present invention includes an advanced adjustable density misting delivery system (AMDS) for detecting and neutralizing a fire. The AMDS includes a bladder containing a fire suppressant material, a pump operatively connected to the bladder via a tube, and a nozzle operatively connected to the pump and the bladder via the tube. The AMDS also includes a controller electrically connected to the pump and a sensor in communication with the controller, where the sensor is configured to detect a parameter that indicates the presence of the fire. The controller is configured to transition the pump from a deactivated state to an activated state when the sensor detects the parameter, such that in the deactivated state the pump does not operate, and in the activated state the pump causes the fire suppressant to flow from the bladder, through the tube, and out the nozzle.

An anti-fire protection device for a starter-controller device of an electrical installation is able to be connected to an electrical power conductor and includes thermal monitoring of the electrical power conductor to detect a temperature rise of greater than a predetermined threshold. This anti-fire protection device can be fixed mechanically to the starter-controller device via at least one mechanical linking member. The thermal monitoring includes at least one temperature sensor and a cartridge including a fire extinguishing agent and at least one injection element, situated on the same face of the protection device as the temperature sensor, the cartridge being situated inside the protection device and connected to the temperature sensor, the injection element being able to inject the fire extinguishing agent towards the electrical power conductors subsequent to a detection, by the temperature sensor, of a temperature of greater than the predetermined threshold.
