The Application of Flame Spread Theory to Predict Material Performance

A review is presented of recent work which attempts to apply flame spread theories to a wide range of materials. The approach is based on using the theories to develop correlations from material data. The data are derived from small scale tests and are expressed in terms of “properties.” Various rad...

Sumario:A review is presented of recent work which attempts to apply flame spread theories to a wide range of materials. The approach is based on using the theories to develop correlations from material data. The data are derived from small scale tests and are expressed in terms of “properties.” Various radiant heating apparatus are discussed, and a wide range of results are presented. The focus of the application is fire spread on walls.
