G-70-96-092 09135-200 METHODOLOGY AND ACCEPTANCE CRITERIA Methodology for Conduits The model for conduits uses basic heat transfer relation '

outside of the conduit and the Neher-McGrath i

equations inside the conduit (Ref.1). The heat dissi ated the cables inside of the conduit is calculated first.

I Energy balance equations can then tie written at eac$ in ace or discontinuity in the fire wrap system. The temperature at the interfaces can then be determined so that the amount of heat being transferred across the j

interface is equal to the amount of heat being generated by the cables.

j The first interface is at the surface of the conduit. Heat will be dissipated from the surface of the conduit by r:diation and convection. The radiation relationship assumes that the conduit is located in free space, and the i

area dissipating heat per unitlen is equal to the circumference of the wrapped conduit Equation 8-43a of ted usmg the simplified relationship for a horizontal cyl(inder in air Tab Ref:rence 2 7-2 of Refere). Convection is ca i

nce 2). The resulting non-linear equations are solved using the solve block feature of Math (cad i

j (Reference 3).

i Th2 outer layer of fire wrap is treated as a cylindrical shell. The temperature drop can be calculated using j

Equ: tion 2-8 of Reference 2.

1-Heat conduction across the air gap between the inner and outer layer of fire wrap is assumed to be by i

r:distion, conduction, and in some cases convection 'Ihe heat transferred by radiation is taken into account by treating the two layers of fire wrap material as concentric cylinders (Equation 8-43 of Reference 2). & heat transferred by conduction is calculated by treating the gap as a cylindncal shell. Since the thermal conductivity of air is a function of temperature, a section of the calculation makes a hnearinterpolation of the c:nductivity based on data points taken from Reference 2. The conductivity is calculated for the average of the

{

temperatures on either side of the gap. Depending on the size of the gap and the temperature difference, convechon may or may not be sigruncant m the air gap.

convech.on is taken into account by an i

cdjustment factor to the thermal conductivity of air. This ustment multiplier is given in Sechon 7-2, Equations 7-49 and 7-60, and Table 7-3 of Reference 2. The andt! number and the'kmematic viscosity of air are non-linear functions of the temperature. Cubic splines are used to perform interpolations of the values of these quantities taken from Table A-5 of Reference 2. The function for the adjustment of the conductivity of air is placed in an "if' statement so that its muumum value is 1 (no additional heat transfer due to convechon). A l

M:thcad solve block is used to solve the heat transfer equations at the gap.

i

'Ihe temperature drop across the inner layer of fire wrap materialis calculated in the same way that the j

temperature drop was calculated across the outer layer of fire wrap material. The temperature drop across the g pletween the conduit and the inner layer of fire wrap material as calculated in the same manner as was used for the air gap between the inner and outer layers of fire wrap material. In cases where there is no gap between the conduit and the fire wrap or where there is only a single layer of fire wrap material, the gap between the conduit and the inner layer of fire wrap material or the gap between the mner and outerlayers of fire wrap material can be made infuutesimally small.

i The temperature drop across the conduit is calculated by treating the conduit as a cylindrical shell.

'The temperature drop in the gap between the outside of the cable and the inner wall of the conduit is c:.lculated using Equation 41 A of Reference 1. This equation is partly based on experimental data. Since the t

cable rests on the bottom of the conduit, an analysis of this temperature drop based on simple heat transfer theory is not possible. The circumscribed diameier of the conductors can be calculated by tngonometry, and th2 numeric value of the multiplier is tabulated in Table 1 on page 80 of Reference 4.

The temperature rise through the insulation is calculated using Equation 39 of Reference 1. The coeffnent of l

i 0.00522 used in this equation includes various unit conversion factors. Since the Mathcad calculation uses j

f consistent nits, the appropriate coefficient is I. Because of the presence of the other three conductors of the 2r l REVISION NO.: 0 l

Methodology for Cable Trays The model for cable trays is similar to the model for conduits from the surface of the fire wrap to the surface

~

of the cable mass. The cables in the tray are modeled as a cable mass using Stolpe's method (Reference 6). The h::t generated by the cables in the tray is first calculated. Energy balance equations are then developed at ecch interface or discontinuity in the fire wrap system. The temperatures at the interfaces are calculated so l

th:t the amount of heat transmitted across the interface is equal to the heat generated by the cables.

Hr.ct is dissipated at the interface between the outside of the fire wrap and the ambient by convection and r:diation. The outer surface of the fire wrap is treated as an isothermal surface. The radiation relationship l REV!SION NO.: 0 l

essumes that the cable tray is located in free space and the area dissipating heat is equal to the curumference I

of the fire wrap (Equation 8-43a of Reference 2). Convection is calculated for the top, bottom, and sides of the fire wrap using the simplified expressions for heated plates in air (Table 7-2 of Reference 2). The resulting non-linear equations are solved using the solve block feature of Mathcad (Reference 3).

Tha layer of fire wrap is treated as flat plates on each side of the fire wrap enclosure, with the inner surface of the fire wrap also treated as an isothermal surface (Equation 2-1 of Reference 2). In calculating the size of the phtes, the inside dimensions of the fire wrap are used for conservatism. (In effect, the materialin the comers of the " box" of fire wrap material are Qnored.) The temperature drop through the layer of fire wrap material is cdculated so that the amount of heat transmitted through the fire wrap materialis equi to the heat generated by the cables. The temperature of the inside surface of the fire wrap can then be calculated from the temperature of the outside surface of the fire wrap calculated in the previous step and the temperature drop through the fire wrap.

H:ct transfer between the outer surface of the cable mass and the inside of the fire wrap materialis pnmarily by radiation and conduction. Under some circumstances conduction may be augmented by convection. %e exposed surface of the cable mass along with the sides and bottom of the cable tray are treated as another isothermal surface. Another assumption that is made in the calculation of heat transfer by radiation is that all helt radiated from the cable mass and associated surfaces reaches the inside of the cable wrap. Derefore, the view factors are only functions of the area of the surfaces and the emissivities, and are not sensitive to the d; tails of the configuration. In the test configuration, a sheet of SilTemp glass fiber cloth was laid on top of the ecble mass. The temperature drop through this blanket is taken into account in calculating the heat being dissipated from the top of the cable tray and calculating the temperature drop of the SilTemp blanket. %e basic method used is to calculate cable mass temperature required to transfer an amount of heat to the inside of the fire wrap material by conduction and radiation. The linear and non-linear equations are solved using the solve block feature of Mathcad. He conductivity of air is deternuned by linear interpolation using the ev rage of the temperatures of the cable mass and the inside of the fire wrap material. Convection (if any)is taken into account by adjusting the thermal conductivity of air, as was done for the conduit temperature cdculation. The kinematic viscosity and the Prandtl number of air are determmed by interpolating data using cubic splines. These quantities are evaluated at the average of the surface *emperature and the temperature at the inside of the fire wrap. The expression for the conductivity adjustment checks to see if the product of the Gr:shof and Prandtl numbers is high enough for the expression to be valid. Also, the nurumum value of the conductivity adjustment is forced to be 1. In order to solve the equations, the surface temperature of the cable mass is written as a function of the surface temperature of the SilTemp blanket. As a result, the solve block only needs to solve for one unknown. The surface temperature of the cable mass can then be solved by back substitution.

The temperature drop through the cable mass is calculated using Equation 5 of Reference 6, which is equivalent to Equation 2-23 of Reference 2. The conductor temperature is then calculated by adding the temperature rise in the cable mass to the surface temperature of the cable mass.
