Smoke movement and smoke control on merchant ships
Abstract
The basic concepts of smoke movement and smoke control with emphasis upon shipboard applicability are discussed. A report of simulated smoke movement tests performed on two merchant vessels is presented. Based upon these test results potential methods of smoke control for merchant vessels are discussed. Recommendations are made for future study.
