- Abstract
- In this report a proposed test method for determination of the flammability of a fluid spray is presented (appendix A). The test method is intended for testing of "fire resistant hydraulic fluids" but can also be used for testing of other fluids, e.g., paints and varnishes and certain fuels. In order to get experience of the test method a series of tests has been performed. Three different types of fire resistant hydraulic fluids (organic ester, phosphate ester, water in oil emulsion) have been tested according to the proposed method in order to verify it usefulness.
