Basic Safety Training Online Partial Refresher / V3 2023-05-02

Present the elements are needed for a fire to occur with reference to the three sides of the triangle of combustion (oxygen, material and temperature) Ask the participants involving questions about the triangle of combustion and the elements needed for a fire to occur with reference to the three sides of the triangle of combustion (oxygen, material and temperature)

The participants shall:

Engage in the discussion and share understandings about the element needed for a fire to burn and how removal of these elements will influence the fire Engage in answering the questions about the triangle of combustion and the elements needed for a fire to occur

ELEMENT 3.4 - FIRE SPREAD AND FIRE GASES

Learning objectives:

23) The participants can describe how fire can start and spread in a wind turbine focusing on the speed of development and how the design of a wind turbine can influence the fire spread (Knowledge, basic level)

24) The participants can describe fire spread in relation to wind turbines (Knowledge, basic level)

25) The participants can describe the risks posed by fire gases in a wind turbine (Knowledge, basic level)

26) The participants can describe the composition and hazards of fire gases based on the materials in a wind turbine (Knowledge, basic level)

The instructor shall:

Lead a discussion about how fire can start and spread in a wind turbine focusing on the speed of development and how the design of a wind turbine can influence the fire spread (e.g. chimney effect of the tower)

Present fire spread in relation to wind turbines considering the following:

a.

conduction

b.

convection

c.

radiation

d.

direct burning

Ask the participants involving questions about fire spread in relation to wind turbines
