QUESTION 2 (10 POINTS) Immediately after Sheila sees the fire on the coffee table (t=100s), she hurries to her bedroom where her phone was charging so she could call 911. While doing so, she heard a pop back in her living room (t=200s). It was later concluded this pop was a sprinkler head that had an activation temperature of 87C and an RTI of 50m-s1/2. However, the system had not been maintained, so no water flowed through the sprinkler. During your initial investigation, you measured the sprinkler head to have a distance of 3m from the centerline of the fire on the coffee table where Sheila said it started. You also can make the assumption that the fire is still completely on the coffee table, and the coffee table top is 0.3m off the ground. If the ambient temperature of Sheila's home was 20C, calculate the heat release rate at t=200s using Alpert's correlation. a

DESCRIPTION You are conducting a fire investigation on a single-family home. The fire began in the living room and eventually reached flashover. During your initial investigation, your measured the living room to be 6.1 m wide by 6.1m long by 2.74m tall. A single vent was available to this room with a height of 2.44m and a width of 1 meter. The room was lined with % inch gypsum wall board. You are attempting to reconstruct the fire scene for fire modeling purposes. You need to develop a heat release rate curve based on the statements of the only witness to the fire. You want to create a heat release rate curve from initial ignition to flashover. Read the following witness statements and develop a heat release rate curve below.
