development of the international space station iss fine water mist fwm portable Fire Extinguisher
43rd International Conference on Environmental Systems, 2013Co-Authors: Branelle Rodriquez, Gina YoungAbstract:The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is developing a Fine Water Mist (FWM) Portable Fire Extinguisher (PFE) for use on the International Space Station (ISS). The ISS presently uses two different types of Fire Extinguishers: a water foam Extinguisher in the Russian Segments, and a carbon dioxide Extinguisher in the United States Orbital Segments, which include Columbus and Kibo pressurized elements. Currently, there are operational and compatibility concerns with the emergency breathing equipment and the carbon dioxide Extinguisher. ISS emergency response breathing equipment does not filter carbon dioxide; therefore, crew members are required to have an oxygen supply present during a Fire event since the carbon dioxide PFE creates an unsafe breathing environment. The ISS program recommended a nontoxic Fire Extinguisher to mitigate this operational risk. The FWM PFE can extinguish a Fire without creating a hazardous breathing environment for crewmembers. This paper will discuss the unique functional and performance requirements that have been levied on the FWM PFE, identify unique microgravity design considerations for liquid and gas systems, and discuss the NASA ISS specific Fire standards that were developed to establish an acceptable portable Fire Extinguisher s performance.

2018Co-Authors: Mohammad HandokoAbstract:ABSTRAK Mohammad Handoko, 2018, NIT : 51145188.N, “Penilaian Kemampuan Crew dalam Penggunaan Portable Fire Extinguisher Saat Pelaksanaan Fire Drill pada MV. Vinca”, Program Diploma IV, Program Studi Nautika, Politeknik Ilmu Pelayaran Semarang, Pembimbing I: Capt. Dodik Widarbowo, M.T., M.Mar dan Pembimbing II: Adi Oktavianto, ST., MM Pencegahan bahaya kebakaran merupakan usaha yang dilakukan agar tidak terjadi penyalaan api yang tidak terkendali. Bahaya kebakaran dapat menimbulkan bahaya terhadap keselamatan jiwa ataupun harta benda. Apabila terjadi bahaya kebakaran di kapal saat kapal sedang melaksanakan suatu pelayaran di tengah laut / samudera dimana kapal sedang berlayar sendiri hanya crew kapal yang dapat memadamkan api tersebut karena tidak ada kapal disekitar kapal. Oleh karena itu, Setiap kapal harus melaksanakan Fire drill minimal sekali dalam waktu satu bulan Fire drill, crew dapat lebih familiar dengan peralatan serta fungsi dari alat - alat pemadaman kebakaran yang berada diatas kapal MV. Vinca. Dengan diadakannya Fire drill, crew mampu meningkatakan kemampuan crew dalam penggunaan Fire Extinguisher guna menunjang keselamatan dalam bekerja dilaut. Dalam kenyataannya masih banyak crew kapal yang masih belum tahu jenis alat-alat pemadam kebakaran yang berada diatas kapal, terlebih cara penggunaan dan dalam keadaan bagaimana alat tersebut digunakan. Melalui metode pengumpulan data yaitu dengan observasi, wawancara terstruktur, studi dokumenter, riset kepustakaan didapat data kemudian dianalisa melalui Fault Tree Analysis (FTA) dan Urgency, Seriousness, Growth (USG). Berdasarkan hasil penelitian, bahwa crew memiliki kemampuan yang rendah dalam penggunaan portable Fire Extinguisher. Hal tersebut disebabkan karena pengetahuan dan pemahaman yang kurang tentang portable Fire Extinguisher, crew tidak serius dalam pelaksanaan Fire drill dan portable Fire Extinguisher tidak layak pakai karena kurangnya perawatan yang berkala dan teratur Jadi cara mengatasi rendahnya kemampuan crew dalam penggunaan portable Fire Extinguisher pada MV. Vinca adalah memberikan pengarahan terhadap crew tentang penggunaan beserta jenis portable Fire Extinguisher, crew harus serius dalam pelaksanaan Fire drill dan perwira yang bertanggungjawab atas peralatan Fire fighting equipment harus melaksanakan maintenance secara berkala dan teratur.

Development of the International Space Station (ISS) Fine Water Mist (FWM) Portable Fire Extinguisher
2011Co-Authors: Clements, Anna L.Abstract:NASA is developing a Fine Water Mist Portable Fire Extinguisher for use on the International Space Station. The International Space Station presently uses two different types of Fire Extinguishers: a water foam Extinguisher in the Russian Segment, and a carbon dioxide Extinguisher in the US Segment and Columbus and Kibo pressurized elements. Changes in emergency breathing equipment make Fine Water Mist operationally preferable. Supplied oxygen breathing systems allow for safe discharge of a carbon dioxide Fire Extinguisher, without concerns of the crew inhaling unsafe levels of carbon dioxide. But the Portable Breathing Apparatus (PBA) offers no more than 15 minutes of capability, and continued use of hose based supplied oxygen system increases the oxygen content in a Fire situation. NASA has developed a filtering respirator cartridge for use in a Fire environment. It is qualified to provide up to 90 minutes of capability, and because it is a filtering respirator it does not add oxygen to the environment. The Fire response respirator cartridge does not filter carbon dioxide (CO2), so a crew member discharging a CO2 Fire Extinguisher while wearing this filtering respirator would be at risk of inhaling unsafe levels of CO2. Fine Water Mist extinguishes a Fire without creating a large volume of air with reduced oxygen and elevated CO2. From a flight hardware design perspective, the fine water mist Fire Extinguisher has two major elements: (1) the nozzle and crew interface, and (2) the tank. The nozzle and crew interface has been under development for several years. It has gone through several design iterations, and has been part of more than 400 Fire challenge and spray characterizations. The crew and vehicle interface aspects of the design will use the heritage of the CO2 based Portable Fire Extinguisher, to minimize the disruption to the crew and integration impacts to the ISS. The microgravity use environment of the system poses a set of unique design requirements specifically for the tank. The nozzle requirements drive a tank pressure that is 2-5 times higher than any commercially available water mist systems. Microgravity requires deliberate separation of gas and water, facilitated by a bladder, a diaphragm, a piston, or separate tanks. This paper will describe the design details of the tank and the nozzle, and discuss the trade studies that informed the decisions to select the tank and nozzle configuration

FWM extinguishes a Fire without creating a large volume of air with reduced oxygen and elevated CO2. The following paper will discuss the unique functional and performance requirements that have been levied on the FWM PFE. In addition, the NASA ISS specific Fire standards will be described which were developed to establish acceptable Extinguisher performance. The paper will also discuss the flight hardware design.
