Abstract

The Swedisn box apparatus was modified to include an oxygen analysis of the exhaust gases to be compared with the conventional exhaust gas temperature measurement. A slow‐burning material shows good correlation between the temperature measurement and the rate of heat release. A fast‐burning material, however, consumes all the available oxygen, and the temperature measurement becomes a measure of only the thermal properties of the material.

Wall-fire spread models require heat of gasification or nondimensional heat of gasification to calculate mass loss rate or rate of heat release from the wall material. An intermediate scale rate of heat release apparatus was used to measure all the parameters needed to calculate non-dimensional heat
