<p>Methods for extinguishing tank fires including establishing a foam blanket and subsequently cooling inner and/or outer tank wall portions (T), as well as applying dry power to residual flames. Methods also include improving the foam blanket established from staged nozzles through creating side footprints at the site for correcting footprint range, length, and width, and through correcting predicted footprint and foam run for variations in factors such as fluid height, wind conditions, nozzle stream width, head pressure, percent of foam concentrate, characteristics of the burning fluid, the type of foam and the temperature of the burning fluid.</p> |
