β¦ Synopsis
Measurements of luminous flame extensions beneath ceilings under steady burning conditions are presented. Tests were conducted using both axisymmetric and corner-wall-ceiling configurations for a range of energy supply rates up to 400 kW and burner-to-ceiling heights up to 2.3 m. Flame length observations, which were made both visually and photographically, are expressed in dimensional and in nondimensional terms. Comparisons are made with previous measurements reported in the literature.

Experiments have been conducted to study the effects of forced air flow velocity and grid-generated turbulence on the flow-assisted flame spread over a flat solid combustible surface in a ceiling configuration. The tests are conducted with thick PMMA sheets as fuel, and air as oxidizer. Flame sprea
