Seraphim Fire Response v2.0 — The House Plane and the AEGIS Scale Suit

A house can come through a wildfire standing. Seraphim Fire Response v2.0 calculates the ground branch of the Seraphim series with a transient heat model, layer by layer and minute by minute. The House Plane is the main product: a rolled cover that wraps the whole building from ridge to ground and keeps a building standing through a wildfire while its people are safely evacuated. The AEGIS suit is the extreme test bench on which every layer is proven first. House Plane. Dry, without water, pump or power, a cover of pearl-white ceramic skin, microporous insulation and a carbon spreader film with an aluminium back face on the cold side keeps a timber wall at 123 °C beside a burning bush (10 mm) and at 119 °C beside a burning house (25 mm), at 3.5–7.5 kg/m². Under the same cover a tiled roof keeps its battens at 82 °C (10 mm, bush) and 108 °C (15 mm, burning house); uncovered they would reach about 330 °C and 700 °C. The design band is 120–150 °C: with insulation aged by 20 % and a dulled aluminium face the wall stays at 142–149 °C, still 50 K below the 200 °C charring line. Behind the insulation the spreader film stays below about 410 °C, clear of oxidation, and makes hours of ember showers harmless: under an 800 °C ember resting for an hour the back of the insulation stays near 35 °C, and per kilogram the insulation is about twenty times more effective than water stored in the curtain. Several protected houses in a street act together as a firebreak: houses that stay unburnt break the chain from roof to roof. Without insulation, the same fabric becomes a light radiation shield and wrap for campsites, hotels, tanks and trees. Where water is available at any pressure, a ridge-fed wick holds the wall at about 133 °C, and a thermoelectric patch cooled by the same water can power a pump; a buried 6 m³ fire-reserve cistern makes this independent of mains water and grid power. Water stays a bonus; the dry curtain carries the full protection on its own. AEGIS suit and escape class. A ceramic shell, microporous insulation and a 2 mm phase-change vest need 39–55 mm for a 10-minute flame front up to a 30-minute entrapment at 800 °C. Wetted from outside, 15 mm of aerogel holds about 28 minutes and leaves 3–4 minutes of escape if the water stops. Evacuation always comes first; for the rare case that fire cuts off the way out, a quilted escape class of 10–25 mm gives 3 to 12.5 minutes at 800 °C to reach a safe zone, a fire vehicle or a protected building. Overlapping glazed silica scales and a swelling layer add armour and mobility. Two reader classes. Part I explains in plain language for homeowners, insurers and municipalities why houses burn in a wildfire, what the cover holds and what decides its price (production scale, location and house size, with two to three product lines). Part II gives the engineering: the heat-flux-times-time rule, every material, the model tables, heat-to-power limits, a coupon test plan and a maturity map graded A (buildable today), B (research) and C (vision). Novel contributions NC-SFR-16 to NC-SFR-25, each described with construction, parameter ranges, an example embodiment, variants and a validation test: NC-SFR-16 — Outside-wet, inside-dry protective suit NC-SFR-17 — Glazed porous-silica scale armour over a microporous core NC-SFR-18 — Wet scales as an external water buffer NC-SFR-19 — Swelling skin under lifting scales NC-SFR-20 — Misted double-skin House Plane with an inner-side reflector (with wick variant) NC-SFR-21 — Fire-powered drencher pump NC-SFR-22 — Dry House Plane envelope from ridge to ground with a cold-side spreader film and low-emission back face NC-SFR-23 — Self-inspecting, self-closing curtain with a service record NC-SFR-24 — Radiant shield wall, object wraps and ground strip from uninsulated cover fabric NC-SFR-25 — Child evacuation wrap and suit with adult-operable rear closure, blown CO-filter hood and size-exchange service They extend NC-SFR-1 to NC-SFR-15 of v1.0 and are published as open prior art under CC BY-NC-ND 4.0: All values are theoretical design estimates from a 1D/2D transient heat model and require independent validation. This record continues Seraphim Fire Response Ecosystem v1.0 (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.21311788), which holds NC-SFR-1 to NC-SFR-15. v2.0 (October 2026) adds a full transient heat model with peak-and-tail fire profiles, the dry House Plane envelope from ridge to ground with a cold-side spreader film and low-emission back face as the main product, designed to a 120–150 °C wall band with a sensitivity analysis, the quilted escape class and rescue chain (evacuation first), the spray-ring and scale suits as test benches, a heat-to-power ceiling, a coupon test plan, a maturity map, a two-part structure for homeowners and engineers, and ten new detailed novel contributions (NC-SFR-16 to NC-SFR-25), including a light-gate inspection and repair service for the curtain a fire reserve kit with a buried cistern, radiant shield walls and wraps for campsites, hotels and tourist areas, and evacuation wraps and suits for children.
