Inmate cell fire tenability analysis / author(s), Yoon J. Ko, Ph.D.: NR24-90/2021E-PDF
"The present project analyse the tenability of the fire scenario of a full-scale mock-up inmate cell fire that was tested in 2018 by the Correctional Services Canada (CSC) and the National Research Council (NRC). A set of test data including concentrations of various smoke effluents was obtained from the test, and the tenability analysis focuses on the incapacitating effect of smoke effluents inhaled (i.e. rather than skin-absorbed since the dermal exposure risk was investigated in 2018). A computational simulation was also conducted to understand the condition inside the test set-up and to estimate oxygen concentrations, which were not measured in the test. The simulated oxygen concentrations were also used together with the test data in the tenability analysis of the full-scale cell fire to determine the condition of the atmosphere in terms of oxygen"--Executive summary, page 1.
