TEXT B

FOAM

Foam is a frothy product which is similar in appearance to soap-suds. It is so light that it flows in any liquid. Foam is the most effective extinguishing agent for fires of liquids which are not mixed with water, e.g. petrol, paraffin, spirit, paints, oils and many others.

It is well-known that liquids themselves don't burn, but the mixture of air and the vapour given off from these liquids burns.

The combustion doesn't occur usually at the surface of the liquid, where the proportion of vapour to air is too great to form a combustible mixture.

Foam is used in such quantities to cover the whole surface of the burning liquids with a blanket which excludes air and prevents the formation of vapour.The properties of the foam are the following: flow freely over a surface of the liquid to form a blanket; resist heat, flames and wind; retain its water content for a long period.

There are two classes of foam: chemical and mechanical. Chemical foam is produced by a chemical reaction. Mechanical foam does not involve any chemical action in its preparation. It is known that foam has many advantages over vaporizing liquids. Although foam is particularly well suited to fires of liquids, it may also be useful on fires of ordinary combustible materials, such as paper, textiles and so on, when the water supply is limited.

Вариант 8 text а brief history of the warrington fire service

The history of Warrington Fire Services dates back to the eighteenth century. The first records of fire can date back from 1791. Early in the nineteenth century six insurance companies appeared to deal with fires in property.

One of the first indications of the Government's interest in organized fire fighting in Great Britain was given in 1812 - 1813. In that period Parliament passed an Act which stated the fact that «there was no Fire Engine House belonging to Warrington» and «that regulations are wanted for the better governing of the firemen».

The Warrington Fire Establishment was formed in 1828 and consisted of six engines. In 1868 Warrington had one of the largest fire pumps in the country. It was a manual engine.

During the Second World War the Service was nationalized. After that the Fire Service had to return to the Local Authority control. Since that time Warrington Fire Service has progressed from a continuous duty system to 24 and now the 48 hour week.
