ABSTRACT:
An anti-explosion and anti-fire system is disclosed, the system comprising an encapsulant disposed to cover high temperature surface portions of a component; a conduit in thermal connection with the encapsulant; and a heat transfer fluid disposed within the conduit. A diesel engine is disclosed for an underground mine, the engine comprising an encapsulant disposed to cover high temperature surface portions of a cylinder head; a conduit in thermal connection with the encapsulant; and a heat transfer fluid disposed within the conduit. A method for encapsulating high temperature surface portions of a cylinder head is disclosed, the method comprising positioning a conduit adjacent the head; positioning an encapsulant in thermal connection with the head and the conduit; and transferring heat from high temperature portions to prevent gasses, coal dust, fuel, oils or other combustible material in an underground mine from contacting portions at temperatures above an explosion or fire safety limit.
