Cooking areas

Wet or dry chemical fixed suppression systems are typically provided over the kitchen cooking appliances and in exhaust plenums and ducts. Activation means is afforded by fusible links located in the exhaust ducts/plenums usually rated at 232°C (450°F). Manual activation means should not be provided near the cooking area, but in the exit routes from the facility. The facility fire alarm should sound upon activation of the fixed suppression system and power or gas to the cooking appliances should be automatically shut off. The ventilation system should also be shut down by the activation of the fire alarm system. Protective caps should be provided on the suppression nozzles to prevent plugging from grease or cooking particulates. 

Insects and Dust. Check the room air filters and insect control devices daily. Air curtains or pressurized bottling room systems should be checked for proper operation before bottling room start-up daily. Some wineries enclose only the filling and cooking areas, but the quality control checks are the same as if the whole bottling room were isolated. 

By responding to fumes in cooking areas, car parks, laboratories and similar places, gas sensors can be used to control ventilation fans. In industrial situations the sensor can monitor concentrations of carbon monoxide, ammonia, solvent vapours, hydrocarbon gases, ozone etc., and because of the growing consciousness of environmental pollution and the safety aspects of industrial processes the applications will multiply. 

Cook Area = Fryer pan width x cook length = square feet. In the above example, the fryer has a cook area of 2 (24") x 10 = 20 sq.ft. 

Behavioral change to reduce exposure and/or reduce smoke generation Reduce the time spent in the kitchen/cooking area Keep lids on pots while cooking Proper stove maintenance and cleaning Push fuel (especially plant stalks) deeper into the stove so that less smoke escapes into the room Keep children away from the smoke... 

S = Simplifying operations is shown by special register keys in fast-food operations. The key indicates a specific item ( Big Mac ) rather than a price. This reduces pricing errors and improves communication with the cooking area. For e-mail, the return key simplifies finding the return address and entering it. 

A mirror suspended above the cooking area allows vision into pots for a seated person. 

Vent kitchens (cooking areas) and bathrooms according to local code requirements. 

Actually, we do not need to have an oblate shape before a plasma ignites. It might be possible to translate the plasma from a cooking area to a dump section or any other place with a shape stable in the given geometry. The plasma is then to be deformed to an oblate shape when it ignites. 

Once the plasma is separated from the cooking area, we can overload the first wall in the burning area. We probably do not need to keep the plasma moving in order to minimize the loading on the first wall. 

To figure out these stress distributions, we consider as a model of a cooking area a thin, plane circular disk, which is heated in a concentric circular area, as is shown in Fig. 3.24. The temperature distribution is to be rotationally symmetric ... 

For doing so, we used a square cooktop panel whose lateral length conin-cided with the diameter of the circular disk of our cooking-area model. 

Within the heated area tensile-stress maxima of the radial and tangential stresses appear. Both are located close to the temperature maximum of the heated area. The tangential stress attains a compressive-stress maximum near the border of the cooking area.
