LITHIUM BATTERY FIRE TESTS

LITHIUM BATTERY FIRE TESTSH arry WebsterFAA William J Hughes Technical There have been several incidents involving both LITHIUM primary (non-rechargeable) and LITHIUM -ion (rechargeable) batteries Aircraft Cargo Fire April 99 (LAX) Dropped pallet of LITHIUM primary batteries on ramp caught fire No external ignition sourceBACKGROUND FEDEX Memphis incident A shipment of LITHIUM -ion batteries were placed in a cargo container and loaded into a FEDEX aircraft The handlers smelled smoke and determined it was coming from the cargo container The container was off loaded from the aircraft and burst into flames on the ramp NTSB investigation determined the source of the fire was the LITHIUM BATTERY shipmentPrimary BATTERY Major Findings A relatively small fire source is sufficient start a LITHIUM BATTERY fire The ignition of a single BATTERY produces enough heat to ignite adjacent

Pressure Pulse Results • Cargo compartments are designed to equalize pressure at about 1 psi differential • A single battery raises the pressure in the nearly airtight 10 m3 facility 0.2 psi • Four batteries can raise it as much as 1.2 psi • A single exploding …

Appendix C Materials Used in Aircraft - FAA Fire Safety

www.fire.tc.faa.gov

Materials used in aircraft are roughly the same regardless of the type of aircraft involved (normal and transport category airplanes and/or rotorcraft). The various Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs) refer mostly to FAR 25 for flammability requirements. For simplicity, this discussion will, therefore, refer only to FAR Part 25.

a. Full - scale and laboratory fire testing conducted by the FAA has demonstrated that the involvement of the relatively large mass of foam cushion material in aircraft is a major factor in a c abin fire. Thermal radiation can penetrate the seat's outer upholstery covering and cause ignition of the foam core.

Pressure tests are performed to ensure the safety, reliability, and leak tightness of pressure systems. A pressure test is required for a new pressure system before use or an existing pressure system after repair or alteration. There are two methods for pressure tests: hydrostatic and pneumatic. A hydrostatic test is performed by

• Apply less pressure on the electrode which creates a bigger key-hole. The required current decreases as the gap size increases. If the gap is too narrow, it is not unusual to push so hard on the electrode that a 5/32” (4.0mm) electrode will bend. Sometimes, because of magnetic conditions the arc will tend to push to one side of the joint.
