| description |
In recent times, the need for a self-powered,
autonomous firefighting robot, which can cope in fire hot spots,
is strongly required in fire emergencies. The obtainable
firefighting robots lack efficient performance in such
conditions due to less reliability of their electric-powered
actuators in the high-temperature environment under fire
emergency. Our previous study suggests a gas actuated
propulsion system (GAPS) as an alternative to the identified
limitations of the existing electric actuated propulsion system.
The GAPS drives a carbon dioxide propelled autonomous
firefighting robot (CAFFR), which uses dry ice as its power
source. However, there still exists a lack of detailed
understanding of the working principle of the proposed GAPS.
Thus, this study provides a theoretical framework for the novel
CAFFR. Upon establishing the working theory and the concept
of the CAFFR, the research carried out an empirical analysis
of the key influencing design parameters for the CAFFR
pneumatic actuation. The study presents a mathematical model
of the effects of the design parameters and after that, discusses
its implications. |
