Why shouldn't you put a fire out of oil with water
(16) | 23/10/2015 | Two firefighters show us why you shouldn't try to extinguish a fire by hot oil in the kitchen, with water.
The phenomenon that occurs when this admixture is:
The water turns to steam at 100 °C, While the cooking fats are burned with temperature 177 °C or higher (olive oil to 240 °C). So, When the cooking oil catch fire, It is much hotter than the boiling point of water. If you remember and that oil floats on water due to density (and the water submerged in oil), throwing water on a frying pan with oil that is ablaze, the water will sink to the bottom of the Pan and steam will become immediately. Water IE will expand, and 1 liter of water converted into steam 67 cubic meters. This effectively evaporates the oil as the water expands. Atomized fuel + = oxygen an explosive fuel-air mixture. It is like we have built a homemade napalm!
Explosive taste A man in Brazil left a pot in the kitchen longer than necessary. The hot oil caught fire, which he tried to extinguish under water. Bad idea.- Fire in the fryer (fail) The oil from a fryer ignites in the kitchen of a restaurant. One of the employees, who is obviously not trained to deal with such situations, will have the worst possible reaction: will pour water into the fryer. The water is immersed in the fryer and immediately evaporates to the surface, thus forcing the oil to be blown into the air and violently igniting the fire instead of extinguishing it. In such cases, the fryer or pan should be carefully covered with a damp cloth, to stop the supply of oxygen and to "drowns" the fire.
- When an air leak is frozen at very low temperature Leakage in a portable air compressor (compressor), created this unlikely ice formation. The portable compressors lack of moisture removal system from the air as stable. So the water in the air froze fast enough, and create an ice shell in the shape of leakage.
- Easy placement of food in vacuum The Kenji Lopez, cooking Manager page "Serious Eats", shows us a technique for easy placement of food in vacuum without the use of packaging machine. Using an airtight nylon pouch that is sinking slowly into a basin with cold water leaving a small opening. The air is pushed out from the pouch with the help of water pressure, and then there is the completely closed, taking care that the water does not penetrate inside.
- An easy trick for cleaning of oven Those who have attempted to clean the stove a kitchen, they know it is a difficult and tedious process. With this simple solution that contains baking soda, water and vinegar, the cleaning of the oven may become quite easier.
- How to make charcoal in the forest The user of the Primitive Technology channel, He shows us the old charcoal creation method, with the use of a dyke. Coal is a fuel that Burns at higher temperatures than the wood from which it is made. This is because the initial steps of burning remove volatile components of wood (as water and resin). The result is a virtually clean fuel that burns with the highest temperature of the wood, smoke-free and with less flame.
- Launching a new merchant ship The Saturday, October 31, 2015 at the shipyard Ferus Smit in Westerbroek The Netherlands, the cargo ship MV Greenland walked for the first time in water using a multiple-process launching. Several "viewers" appeared to watch the spectacular process. The commercial ship MV Greenland has length 109 meters and width 15 meters, and has 7,200 tons capacity. JT Cement Company that owns the ship, is the first cement company in the world that will use a ship moving with natural gas as fuel for the propulsion.
- The Parrot makes a shower The Iris the Parrot usually goes under the kitchen faucet to make a shower. Uses its beak to open the water tap and check the temperature of the water with his foot. The Iris is a Hyacinth Macau 13 years who lives in Palos Verdes, California. These birds are endemic of South America and is an endangered species. Hyacinths Macaws are hunted for their feathers, used inter alia for making hats.
- How long can you keep your hand in water with a temperature of -2°C; Several people try to hold their hand in freezing water at a temperature of -2 °C, the same temperature the Atlantic Ocean was on the night the Titanic sank. The temperature is below the freezing point of water, however, seawater, due to its salt content, freezes at a lower temperature than pure water. Water at this temperature is extremely dangerous for the human body. Most of the passengers who fell overboard died not of drowning, but from hypothermia within 15 to 30 minutes.
- Kitchen sink for high demands A kitchen sink that has many facilities for washing dishes and cooking.
- Refreshment on a hot spoon TikToker from the channel @flames_vs performs an experiment by pouring a few drops of Sprite on a hot spoon. The spoon is placed over the flame of a burner. The water in the Sprite evaporates leaving only the sugar, which then turns into candy.
- Swallowfishes and their predators The swallow fishes, are fish of the Exocoetidae family that have developed fins on their gills, which give them the possibility to be ejected and suspended over the water several meters. This ability of theirs can make them more agile, but at the same time makes them vulnerable above and below the surface of the water - since above they are chased by the frigate birds (Frigate), and from below fish hunters (Coryphaena hippurus). Excerpt from the documentary "The Hunt" by BBC.
- Building a simple hydrogen generator The user of Youtube "Skill Make", he shows us how he makes a generator from old batteries that decomposes water into hydrogen and oxygen, to create hydrogen gas.
- People take off into the air along with the canopy of a restaurant On June 11, 2023, the city of Yichang in Hubei Province, China was hit by a powerful storm that caused chaos and destruction throughout the region.. A restaurant in the area was particularly affected, with its outdoor canopy being lifted into the air by the strong winds. During the incident, the employees were trying to keep it on the ground with their weight, but some of them rose into the air with the canopy, before falling back to the ground. One of them rose several meters into the air and then landed on the roof of the restaurant. Nobody was seriously injured.
- Magic with a gas The heavy gas sulfur hexafluoride is 5 times heavier than air, which makes experiments with it look like magic tricks with one "invisible water".
