... a soil/duff drought index [developed by Keetch and Byram (1968]) that ranges from 0 (no drought) to 800 (extreme drought) and is based on soil capacity of 8 inches of water. Factors in the index are maximum daily temperature, daily precipitation, antecedent precipitation, and annual precipitation. 4, record 5, English, - Keetch%2DByram%20drought%20index
Record number: 5, Textual support number: 1 CONT
The Keetch Byram Drought Index(KBDI) provides a daily measure of soil dryness, which, in turn, gives an indication of water stress in plants. The KBDI represents the net effect of precipitation and evapotranspiration in producing cumulative moisture deficiency in deep duff or upper soil layers. The KBDI has a range from 0(no drought or soil moisture deficiency, i. e. soil at field capacity) to 2000(extreme drought, maximum soil moisture deficiency possible). The index can be viewed as the amount of rain needed to bring the soil back to saturation, with one mm of rain reducing the index by 10 points. The 0-2000 point scale is divided into three drought classes : 0-999=Low; 1000-1499=Moderate; 1500-2000=High. The KBDI is simple to calculate as it uses only two, daily weather observations-maximum temperature and 24-hour rainfall. The system functions in a book-keeping fashion where estimates of daily evapo-transpiration and measurements of precipitation increase or decrease the value of yesterdays index. The KBDI by itself is not a Fire Danger Rating System as it gives no indicate of the ease of ignition of the vegetation, or of the rate of fire spread, fire intensity and difficulty of control. It does however serve as a useful measure of drought occurrence. 7, record 5, English, - Keetch%2DByram%20drought%20index

Keetch-Byram Drought Index (KBDI): ... 0 - 200: Soil moisture and large class fuel moistures are high and do not contribute much to fire intensity. Typical of spring dormant season following winter precipitation. 200 - 400: Typical of late spring, early growing season. Lower litter and duff layers are drying and beginning to contribute to fire intensity. 400 - 600: Typical of late summer, early fall. Lower litter and duff layers actively contribute to fire intensity and will burn actively. 600 - 800: Often associated with more severe drought with increased wildfire occurrence. Intense, deep burning fires with significant downwind spotting can be expected. Live fuels can also be expected to burn actively at these levels. 9, record 5, English, - Keetch%2DByram%20drought%20index

Homogeneous Charge Compression Ignition, or HCCI, is a relatively new combustion technology. It is a hybrid of the traditional spark ignition(SI) and the compression ignition process(such as a Diesel engine). In addition, HCCI is a lean combustion process. These conditions translate to a lower local flame temperature which lower the amount of Nitric Oxide(NOx) produced in the process. 3, record 7, English, - homogeneous%20charge%20compression%20ignition

A certain class of ceramic and metallic materials can be manufactured by the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis method. Even though by now this process has included reaction systems of the solid-gas and solid-liquid types, the original work was directed towards the reactions investigated where not only the reactants but also the final products formed in the solid phase.

Condensed phase combustion is a complex phenomenon of theoretical and practical interest, in particular, as a method to synthesize materials. This combustion synthesis process involves a self-sustained combustion wave which propagates through initial reactants converting them into a desired product. In condensed phase combustion the initial reactants as well as final, and possibly intermediate products, remain in the condensed phase throughout the reaction. Though the combustion process occurs in a heterogeneous medium composed of reactive particles, typical models of condensed phase combustion treat the medium as homogeneous. 4, record 14, English, - condensed%2Dphase%20combustion

Ballistite is a double-base powder used as a rocket propellant. It is composed of two explosive substances, nitrocellulose and nitroglycerin, blended together with diphenylamine, which acts as a stabilizer. It burns with a considerable amount of flash and smoke, and generates a great volume of gas. Ballistite burns progressively, but at a rate dependent upon the composition and physical characteristics of the powder grain, the temperature of the powder grain before ignition, and the pressure during reaction. It is produced in various shapes to fit the rocket motor housing. 2, record 15, English, - ballistite

Explosives that have passed the Buxton tests and placed on the British list of authorized explosives, implying that they are reasonably safe to manufacture, handle, transport, and use in safety lamp mines. Upon detonation, a permitted explosive(1) gives off the minimum possible quantity of noxious gases, and(2) produces a flame of the lowest possible temperature and shortest possible duration, to lessen the risk of firedamp ignition. The explosive contains cooling agents, such as sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate. The first British permitted list of explosives was published in 1899. 3, record 20, English, - permitted%20explosive

All major underground-coal-mining countries have similar explosives and regulations. In the United States explosives that have been approved by the U.S. Bureau of Mines for use in underground coal mines are called permissibles. Besides passing the Bureau’s safety tests, these explosives must be used in a manner specified by the Bureau. In England the explosives are known as permitted; in France, explosifs antigrisouteux; in Belgium, explosifs S.G.P. (sécurité, grisou, poussière), and in Germany, schlagwettersichere Sprengstoffe. 4, record 20, English, - permitted%20explosive

Dans les mines grisouteuses et poussiéreuses, les impératifs de sécurité imposent un agrément des produits en trois classes : les explosifs rocher, couche et couche améliorée. Citées dans un ordre de sécurité croissante, les deux dernières classes forment les explosifs antigrisouteux proprement dits [...] Les formules couche et couche améliorée comportent en outre du chlorure de sodium (jusqu'à 50 % en masse) dont la fusion, fortement endothermique, permet d'absorber une part importante de l'énergie de la détonation et de diminuer la température [...] En fait seuls les explosifs couche et couche améliorée ont réellement une sécurité vis-à-vis du grisou et des poussières [...] (Quant aux explosifs rocher (,ils) témoignent seulement de leur aptitude à être utilisés en souterrain, compte tenu du niveau raisonnable de toxicité de leurs fumées de détonation. 6, record 20, French, - explosifs%20antigrisouteux

Nous avons défini l'explosif de sûreté comme un explosif qui ne présente pas de danger d'explosion en masse sous l'action d'un choc ou d'une combustion. Tous les explosifs doivent être de sûreté. Mais en outre, en mine grisouteuse ou poussiéreuse, le Règlement exige que les explosifs soient de sécurité. Il faut bien distinguer les notions d'explosif de sûreté et d'explosif de sécurité. L'explosif de sécurité est celui qui est propre à éviter ou à diminuer le risque particulier d'inflammation du grisou et des poussières. 7, record 20, French, - explosifs%20antigrisouteux
