- Identifiers
- fire spread in high rise buildings from floor to floor; ignition in floors above the floor of fire origin; inside and outside the enclosure; gas temperatures inside the enclosure by thermocouple trees; actual heat release rate and smoke production from the assembly of the enclosure and facade; flame height by using a CCD camera; total heat fluxes at several locations in the facade by steel plate heat flux gauges; heat release rate inside the enclosure; efficiency of the overall burning and smoke yield; gas temperatures inside the enclosure; heat fluxes to the facade wall
