Improving the approach to assessing and rationing the effects of heat flow in a fire on the human body

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to improve the method of assessing the risk of damage from exposure to heat flow in accidents with the combustion of hydrocarbons. Modern methods of calculating fire risk values used in Russia are largely based on methods developed by foreign colleagues. However, there are a number of points that are not taken into account in any guide. In the course of the study, it is advisable to conduct an experiment, the results of which will determine the dependence of the degree of damage to living tissues on the intensity and time of exposure to radiation. This dependence is the basis for a mathematical model of human damage by waves of any spectrum, including radiation during the combustion of hydrocarbons. The results of mathematical modeling will be the basis for the development of an approach to the assessment of individual fire risk indicators, the normalization of human thermal injury with varying exposure duration and intensity of thermal radiation.
