Improving the Efficiency of Protection of the Forest Fire Machine against Forest Fires with the Help of Composite Materials

Abstract:

The article presents the results of work aimed at improving the efficiency of forest fire protection machine from forest fires using composite materials. The composition and technology of composite material “water glass – graphite microparticles” production is proposed. It was found that composite material is able to maintain the phase composition and structure at elevated temperatures. Methods of application of fire-retardant composite material on the protected surfaces are considered. The values of limit loads that lead to the destruction of composite material are revealed. A mathematical model was developed and a numerical experiment of high temperatures on composite material was carried out using it as a fire-retardant coating. The resulting composite material can be used as a protective coating for the surfaces of the enclosure of cabins of forest fire machines, building structures. CM can be used as a lining of equipment in the thermal power and metallurgical industries, as well as in equipment used in emergency situations.
