Mittels Propan-Brennern mit einer Brennerleistung 750 kW wurden in einer U-Bahn-Station Heißgasversuche durchgeführt und die zeitlichen und örtlichen Verteilungen der physikalischen Größen (Stoffkonzentration, Temperatur und Rauchgasdichte) erfasst. Laborversuche sowie die Feldversuche sind Validierungsgrundlage für ANSYS CFX und FDS und die später im Rechenmodell der U-Bahn-Station zur Untersuchung der Grundströmung und Rauchausbreitung verwendeten mathematisch-physikalischen Modelle. Der Aufsatz stellt das Projekt ORPHEUS vor und diskutiert die ersten Ergebnisse.
In urban areas the demand for public transportation is constantly growing. Underground railway systems overcome the problem of limited space on the ground and are therefore one of the most powerful systems in urban public transportation. These facilities can be very complex and are used by a large amount of passengers. Therefore, it is important to maintain the safety for people and buildings. Especially in the case of fire or arson attack.
This paper focusses on a fire scenario in a complex subway station for different weather conditions. The purpose is to identify the influences of different weather conditions on the smoke spread and the ability of self-rescue in case of a burning luggage.
The evaluation of the fire simulations will focus on toxicity and visibility taking into account the FED concept.
The surface of many termite gut flagellates is colonized with a dense layer of bacteria, yet little is known about the evolutionary relationships of such ectosymbionts and their hosts. Here we investigated the molecular phylogenies of devescovinid flagellates (Devescovina spp.) and their symbionts from a wide range of dry-wood termites (Kalotermitidae). From species-pure flagellate suspensions isolated with micropipettes, we obtained SSU rRNA gene sequences of symbionts and host. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the Devescovina spp. present in many species of Kalotermitidae form a monophyletic group, which includes also the unique devescovinid flagellate Caduceia versatilis. All members of this group were consistently associated with a distinct lineage of Bacteroidales, whose location on the cell surface was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization. The well-supported congruence of the phylogenies of devescovinids and their ectosymbionts documents a strict cospeciation. In contrast, the endosymbionts of the same flagellates (´Endomicrobia´) were clearly polyphyletic and must have been acquired independently by horizontal transfer from other flagellate lineages. Also the Bacteroidales ectosymbionts of Oxymonas flagellates present in several Kalotermitidae belonged to several distantly related lines of descent, underscoring the general perception that the evolutionary history of flagellate-bacteria symbioses in the termite gut is complex.
