Avoiding the use of traditional fire extinguishers reduces the t chance of addition of more space debris as sound l waves will produce no waste by-products. ? 9) Sound waves can play a very important role in s 20 extinguishing fires in areas which are difficult for 18 humans to approach.Sound waves can be aimed at 16 the source of fire from a long distance and thus the 1 14 spread can be avoided. 12 c I p Conclusions- i(1 161) [710 204) IGO :3 in • 110 4i[Y Ungdi(mm) From the above experimentation and research, we have thus reached the following conclusions: 50 arnt dia 101)111111(ha 1) Sound waves between the range of frequencies 30 Hz to 40 Hz have shown to have effect on flames and thus possess the ability to extinguish fires. Graph.5Effect of Vortex Geometry on Acoustic Velocity 2) The vortex tube necessary to be included in the construction of this experiment has the following The effect of geometry of the vortex tube on the dimensions for optimization of extinguishing decibels of sound has been illustrated by Graph.6. effect:Length is 300 mm and diameter is 100 mm. q'i 3) Use of sound waves for extinguishing fires is an environment-friendly process as it doesn't include the use of chemicals which are traditionally used in fire extinguishers across the world. It also helps conserve the resources like water for their use in yother applications. 4) This application of sound waves could prove to be a massive breakthrough and could make extinguishing fires very much safer for humans.
