- development of new spacecraft like the Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV); overheated wires; burning element on a circuit board; burning cloth; measurements of time and suppressant amount listed in order of effectiveness to extinguish a flame; cotton rag (burning-cloth fire scenario) with several suppressant agents and mass-flow rates; PMMA cylindrical rod (burning-element-on-a-circuit-board fire scenario) with several suppressant agents and mass-flow rates; energized #20 polyethylene-insulated wire (overheated-wire fire scenario) with several suppressant agents and mass-flow rates
