When measuring the production rates of heat and smoke of upholstered furniture the ignition source must not influence the test results. In this paper variations in the strength, application time and geometry of the ignition burner used in the furniture calorimeter are studied. Results from replicate

We describe an evaluation of a transportable quadrupole mass spectrometer and the modifications required for the direct measurement of trace levels of organic solvents in breath. The instrument has been used in human volunteer breath studies and has potential as a non-invasive measure of industrial
Rotationally periodic (or cyclic) symmetry is exploited in the element-free Galerkin (EFG) analysis for heat transfer problems of two-dimensional systems. It is proved that the coefficient matrices of the global EFG equations are block-circulant. Furthermore, a partitioning algorithm is presented, a
