Abstract
Using two fabrics supplied by the Army Natick Laboratories, tests were made by the vertical flame test, Method 5902 of Federal Specification CCC-T-191b, to investigate the effect on the test results of variations in fuel for the igniting flame and draft conditions in the cabinet. Three fuels--Matheson B manufactured gas, propane, and natural gas--and two different cabinet ventilation arrangements were used.
