The Growth of Fire in Building Compartments
A review was made of both full-scale and scale model experiments concerned with fire growth and spread in building compartments. It appears that 'flashover', i.e. the rapid transition to a fully-developed room fire, could be initiated by a fully involved chair fire alone, or by a large waste container ignition source against a combustible lining material. Scale model results continue to provide valuable insight, but the validity of partial scaling results must be considered for each type of experiment. A quasi-steady idealized mathematical model was developed to analyze the various parameters of fire development in a room. These theoretical results show the significance of fuel properties, fire size and location, room and doorway dimensions, and wall thermal properties. The limitations of a mathematical approach are also discussed.
