The Evaluation of Torrefied Wood Using a Cone Calorimeter. [PDF]
Polymers (Basel), 2021 This study focuses on the energy potential and combustion process of torrefied wood. Samples were prepared through the torrefaction of five types of wood: Ash, beech, oak, pine and spruce. These were heated for 2 h at a temperature of 300 °C under a nitrogen atmosphere. Torrefied wood was prepared from wood samples with dimensions of 100 × 100 × 20 mm3.

Testing of liquids with the cone calorimeter
Fire Safety Journal, 2021 Abstract The cone calorimeter is traditionally used to measure the response of solid materials to radiant heating. Liquids are also commonly tested, but the methods employed are varied and inconsistent. There is a need to understand how the experimental conditions impact test results, and to develop formal guidance on a testing protocol for liquids ...

Experimental thermal hazard investigation on carbonate electrolytes using a cone calorimeter
Case Studies in Thermal Engineering, 2021 During the thermal runaway (TR) processing of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), electrolyte would release most of the heat as the main component. Thus, study on the fire risk of electrolyte is conductive to quantitatively evaluate the safety of LIBs. In this
