Due to the high ozone depletion potential of this chemical, alternative solution to Halon as cargo fire suppression agent are researched. The cargo bay in the Flight Test Facility has been equipped with a nitrogen fire suppression system. Test data for containized load is used to validate a zonal model predicting the local distribution of agents in the cargo hold.
