How does heat move from a fire to a fire sprinkler?

Standard wet-pipe fire extinguishers (the kind that you'll find in most buildings) have 2 components: the fire pump and the pipe system. Within the pipes there is pressurized water, held in place by the sprinkler heads. This water is supplied to the pipes by the fire pump.If you look carefully at a fire sprinkler head, you'll notice what appear to be glass bulbs filled with a colored liquid. The liquid in these bulbs is extremely heat sensitive, and the heat from a fire in the building will cause it to expand and burst the bulb. This releases the pressurized water from the pipes into the room with the fire. Another type of sprinkler valve uses a "fusible link" that is calibrated to melt and open the valve when it is hot enough.The release of water by the sprinkler head causes a drop of water pressure in the fire sprinkler system, which sends a signal to the fire pump that it needs to kick on and supply more water pressure to the sprinklers so they can continue to put out the fire. Once the fire is extinguished, the only way to turn the sprinklers off is to shut them off at the pump. This is usually only done with permission of the fire department.Some fire sprinklers work by turning on the whole system at the signal of smoke or fire and dousing the entire area with water.Fire sprinklers are often found in public buildings. They are connected to smoke detectors, so when the detectors go off, the fire sprinklers do as well.Standard wet-pipe fire extinguishers (the kind that you'll find in most buildings) have 2 components: the fire pump and the pipe system.

Does a fire alarm set off the sprinkler system?

Most standard fire sprinklers are activated by heat. There's a small bulb of liquid that keeps the water back in the pipes before a fire begins. When a fire breaks out, that liquid will heat up and eventually cause the bulb to burst, releasing the water from behind it.

What can cause a winterized sprinkler system to start automatically during the winter season?

This question could have numerous explanations and all of them could be right. First of all , the location of the sprinkler system and the type of building it is in is the most important thing to consider. Is the building heated? Does the building have skylights? The first thing you have to exclude is any heat source. Ice buildup on a skylight in the right shape could magnify the sunlight and if its shining on the sprinkler system WA la! Another thing to consider is the buildings heat. Is a sprinkler close to a heat source? All of these things have to be excluded in your search for the answer.

It is possible to launch one operating system from another operating system or on top of another operating system?

Depending on the base operating system, yes. In almost all cases, the operating system from which the second one is loaded lacks memory protection, allowing the second operating system to replace the first one in memory. This can be used, for instance, to boot Linux from MS-DOS or classic versions of Mac OS.
