Temperature Rise Within a Mobile Refuge Alternative—Experimental Investigation and Model Validation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) regulations require underground coal mines to install refuge alternatives (RAs). In the event of a disaster, RAs must be able to provide a breathable air environment for 96 h. ...
Cryogenic Air Supply Feasibility for a Confined Space: Underground Refuge Alternative Case Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A breathable air source is required for a confined space such as an underground refuge alternative (RA) when it is occupied. To minimize the risk of suffocation, federal regulations require that mechanisms be provided and ...
