Abstract

Spreading fast and being difficult to control and put out, train fire hazard can bring property loss, threat passenger´s lives. Therefore, the fire protection on train is very important. Being one of the very important factors of early fire warning, the research on smoke detection at smoldering combustion stage of train fire hazard and the interference factors can provide references for the train fire protection and the design of train AC system.
