- Abstract
- This report contains a summary of available fire suppression agents, their properties, and applicability in the various aircraft applications. Classes of agents, with presently available agents listed, are recommended for use in the development of test protocols. The test protocol developed for a class of agents can be used, with minor modifications, to test all agents belonging to that class.
