abstract="A set of experiments is presented on the effect of a water spray on a fire-induced smoke layer. The downward smoke layer displacement as a result of the interaction with the water droplets is quantified for a wide range of settings, including variable fire conditions, smoke layer temperature, smoke layer thickness and water spray operation pressure. The experiments include temperature measurements. The importance of entrainment processes is highlighted. In addition to the merit of the phenomenological observations, the experimental data set can be useful for model testing purposes.<p />",
