Cone Calorimeter – a Tool for Measuring Heat Release Rate
The cone calorimeter is considered the most significant bench scale instrument in fire testing. This apparatus has been adopted by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 5660-1) for measuring heat release rate (HRR) of a sample. It has been shown that most fuels generate approximately 13.1 MJ of energy per kg of oxygen consumed. Therefore, HRR is based on the fact that the oxyg...
متن کاملRadiant Heat and Thermal Comfort in Vehicles
Infrared-reflective (IRR) treatment of automotive glass has been shown to reduce air temperature in vehicle cabins, thereby increasing fuel economy and occupant comfort. Its effect on radiant heat, however, may augment these benefits. In this study, the hypothesis that radiant heat affects subjective comfort ratings in a vehicle was tested. IRR films were systematically applied to the driver-si...
متن کاملHeat Transfer Characteristics of Rowing Headgear with Radiant Heat Flow
INTRODUCTION Radiant heat gain to the head has recently been shown to affect sensation in human subjects (Buyan et al., 2006). However, only one published study has been conducted on the influence of radiant heat gain for sports headgear (Ishigaki et al., 2001). One could assume that reducing heat stress by shielding solar radiation using sports headgear would increase thermal comfort, and poss...
متن کاملEvaluation of Passenger Train Car Materials in the Cone Calorimeter
Recent advances in fire test methods and hazard analysis techniques make it useful to reexamine passenger train fire safety requirements. The use of test methods based on heat release rate (HRR), incorporated with fire modeling and hazard analysis, could permit the assessment of potential hazards under realistic fire conditions. The results of research directed at the evaluation of passenger tr...
متن کاملRadiant heat from propane jet fires
Sonic propane jet fire experiments were carried out in absence of wind, with visible flame length ranging between 2.2 and 8.1 m. The thermal radiation intensity increased with the mass flow rate and the flame length. The net heat released was also computed and a correlation for the flame length as a function of Q is proposed. The surface emissive power and the fraction of heat irradiated were e...
