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.
