Water suppression
Research in water suppression of fires focuses on optimising techniques and equipment fir efficient fire extinguishment.
Studies explore factors like water pressure, droplet size and delivery method to enhance firefighting effectiveness, while minimising water usage and environmental impact.
This research informs firefighting practices and equipment development for safer and more effective fire suppression.
