Room Fire Test for Fire Growth Modeling-A Sensitivity Study

Abstract: A room test designed according to the ASTM draft standard was used to investigate the effect of various parameters on the contribution of wall and corner fires to compartment fire growth. Location of the burner (against a wall or in a corner), power program of the gas burner ignition source, and combination of wall linings were varied. An initial series of calibration tests were conducted on ceramic fiber blanket and gypsum board. These tests showed satisfactory instrumentation, good repeatability, and reliabl… Show more

“…where, the g Φ means GER, namely, in the fuel combustion process, a certain instant ,the practical consumed fuel and air ratio in the ideal state, the ratio of the amount of yield water and carbon dioxide in the complete combustion of same fuel and the amount of air . fuel m means the rate of fuel mass loss, a ir m means the rate of air mass consumption, s t is the shortening of stoichiometric, meaning in the ideal state, completely according to the equivalent ratio combustion [1][2][3][4]. But the most difficult point is that the air and the high temperature smoke are usually separated using GER to analyze the smoke production in the overseas study. ф is easily calculated in the case as Figure 1.…”
