Fire sprinklers are a common method for extinguishing fires. Current lack of detailed knowledge about sprinklers can lead to conservative design and excessive cost, often limiting the installation of these proven life-saving devices. This project sees the involvement of Arup Pty Ltd and the NSW Fire Brigade in examining the behaviour of sprinklers using a custom-designed test-rig, laser based measurement and a numerical model. This will result in improved confidence in sprinkler specification and installation and the project will have use and significance beyond Australia. Successful implementation promises reductions in the loss of life and property as well as financial savings.

消防喷头是灭火的常用方法。目前缺乏关于洒水器的详细知识可能会导致保守的设计和过高的成本，通常会限制这些经过验证的救生设备的安装。该项目见证了Arup Pty Ltd和新南威尔士州消防队的参与，他们使用定制设计的测试台、基于激光的测量和数值模型来检查喷头的行为。这将提高人们对喷水灭火系统规格和安装的信心，该项目将在澳大利亚以外的地区使用和具有重要意义。成功的执行有望减少生命和财产损失，并节省资金。
