Notes:
An experiment is described which measures the heat transferred from a hot, flowing, buoyant gas layer in a mall, to a sprinkler spray. Interpolation techniques are described which allow for the large heat losses occurring within the apparatus (a large-scale model mall). The results are compared with predictions based on the method developed in Part 1 and found to be consistently 150% of the predicted heat transfer rates. Given the assumptions required by the predictive calculations this is thought to be reasonable degree of agreement. The largest heat transfer rate to the one sprinkler spray in this experiment was 157 kW ± 38 kW.
