Abstract

The process of extinguishing a class B fire with sprayed water is described by the differential equation of heat conduction with boundary conditions of the second kind. The solution of this differential equation in a dimensionless form allows to make a transition to the operative form of representation of the mathematical model of the quenching process - to the transfer function. The peculiarity of such a fire transfer function when extinguishing it with sprayed water is its irrationality, which causes difficulties in its use. One of the ways out of this situation is to switch to an equivalent representation of an irrational function of a complex variable in the form of a small-rational function of such a variable. Such a transition is carried out with the help of the minimax approximation using the Remez algorithm. Determination of the maximum order of the characteristic polynomial of the fire transfer function is carried out using the Hurwitz stability criterion. It is shown that for the transfer function of class B fire, the order of the Hurwitz polynomials does not exceed four, the approximation error does not exceed 3.6% using the method of undetermined coefficients, the transfer functions of the fire when they are extinguished with sprayed water are constructed in the form of a superposition of the transfer functions of aperiodic links. Numerical values of the parameters of such transfer functions were obtained. For the case when the intensity of the sprayed water supply is described by the Heaviside function, expressions describing the temperature of the surface of the burning liquid were constructed. It is noted that these expressions correspond to the expressions that describe the dynamic properties of class B fire in the time domain. It is shown that the maximum value of the relative error when using such transfer functions does not exceed 4.0%, if the general transfer function represents the superposition of the transfer functions of two aperiodic links. It is noted that when using the Padé approximation, the transfer function in the form of the transfer functions of eight aperiodic links corresponds to this value of the divergence error.
