This paper gives an overview of the Combustion Behaviour of Upholstered Furniture (CBUF) project. The work described is the collective effort of 11 CBUF partners, laboratories, universities, industries, in eight countries. It became possible to do this research thanks to the European Commission's in
An analysis has been made to compare the repeatability and reproducibility of three tests for cigarette ignition of upholstered furniture composites: ASTM E1352, ASTM E1353 and NIST 851 mock-up. The first two of these tests are traditional methods designed to assess the potential of upholstered furn
In the EC-sponsored CBUF (Combustion Behaviour of Upholstered Furniture) study three different models were developed for using Cone Calorimeter results to predict full-scale furniture burning. Model I is a correlation-based approach and has the most comprehensive coverage of styles and furniture typ
Flame length, velocity, temperature and mass-flux measurements for some line fires are reported. As would be expected from theoretical considerations, laminar flame lengths are shown to scale as Q4/3 whilst turbulent flames scale as Q2/3. The velocity and temperature data in and above the turbulent
