View factor in cone calorimeter testing [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2016
This work focuses on algebraic derivations of geometric view factors (i) from plane element to interior of truncated cone in parallel configuration; (ii) from plane element to segment of interior of truncated cone in perpendicular configuration, to clarify irradiance-related uncertainties generated in cone calorimeter tests on intumescent-type fire ...

PVC Cable Fire Toxicity Using the Cone Calorimeter

open access: yes, 2016
Electrical cables with PVC sheaths were investigated for their ignition characteristics, heat release and toxic yields using the cone calorimeter. 40 KW/m2 was required to get a significant heat release for PVC. A heated Temet Gasmet FTIR was used for the toxic gas analysis.

Uniformity Of Radiant Heat Fluxes In Cone Calorimeter [PDF]

open access: yesFire Safety Science, 2003
A model has been developed for the local configuration factor for the radiant interchange between the internal surface of the cone heater and the specimen's surface in the cone calorimeter. The incident heat flux under the cone was characterised in a series of experiments as a function of spatial coordinates.

Study on Combustion Characteristics of Cable Based on Cone Calorimeter

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
Cross-linked polyethylene (XLPE) carries a high fire risk. In this paper, a cone calorimeter is used to carry out radiation ignition experiments, and the heat release rate (HRR), mass loss rate (MLR) and other combustion parameters of XLPE cables under ...

Study of Under-Ventilated Burning Characteristics of Materials with the Cone Calorimeter

open access: yesChemical Engineering Transactions, 2013
The ISO 5660-1 Cone Calorimeter is commonly used for the measurement of main fire properties of products and materials, such as the heat release rate, the effective heat of combustion, the mass loss rate or the time to ignition.

Application of data from the cone calorimeter for analyses of the impact of a flame retardant applied on polymer material subjected to combustion on changes in smoke logging within a confined space

open access: yesEngineering Structures and Technologies, 2014
The paper makes an analysis of the impact of flame retardants on parameters of thermal energy emission and smoke from polymer materials specified with the use of a cone calorimeter and on parameters of the smoke logging zones in a model scheme of ...

Synergistic effects of zinc borate and aluminiumtrihydroxide on flammability behaviour of aerospaceepoxy system [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The flame retardancy of mono-component epoxy resin (RTM6), widely used for aerospace composites, treated with zinc borate (ZB), aluminium trihydroxide (ATH) and their mixtures at different concentrations have been investigated by morphological and ...

Experimental thermal hazard investigation on carbonate electrolytes using a cone calorimeter

open access: yesCase 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

Durability of Flame-Retarded, Co-Extruded Profiles Based on High-Density Polyethylene and Wheat Straw Residues

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
At present, little information is available in the scientific literature related to the durability (weathering resistance) of fire-retarded wood and natural fiber-reinforced thermoplastics.

Jet energy measurement with the ATLAS detector in proton-proton collisions at root s=7 TeV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The jet energy scale and its systematic uncertainty are determined for jets measured with the ATLAS detector at the LHC in proton-proton collision data at a centre-of-mass energy ofs√=7 TeV corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 38 pb−1.
