Abstract:

In order to accurately acquir the air gap thickness and distribution of fireproof clothing before and after heat exposure in the flame manikin test, a measurement and characterization method based on three-dimensional (3-D) on-site scanning was proposed. Firstly, by using Kinect depth cameras, a 3-D scanning platform was established in the combustion chamber, based on which the 3-D point cloud data of the nude manikin and clothed manikin before and after exposure was obtained directly. Then by modeling, alignment, and 3-D comparison in the reverse engineering software Geomagic, and with the realization of accurate location of the manikin surface sensors in the 3-D space, the air gap thickness and distribution were extracted quickly and effectively. The verification test results show that even for the same clothes, the distribution of air gaps under clothing is quite different each time. The variation coefficients of the gap thickness at the back before and after exposure even reach 46% and 35%, respectively. This indicates that the data obtained from the previous remote scanning method an not fully reflect the real state in the combustion test, and the on-site scanning is more conducive to accurately analyze the influence of air thickness change caused by clothing material, specifications, thermal shrinkage and other factors on the thermal protective performance.
