- Abstract
- Results of measurements of concurrent fire spread over burning horizontal PMMA surfaces and between parallel particle board are presented and analyzed for air flows ranging from 2 to 2.1 m/s. A general approach is outlined which enables wind assisted fire spread along conveyor-like structures to be predicted based on measurements made from an instrument like the NBS Cone Calorimeter and theoretical models of fire spread.
