Gas temperatures beneath ceilings due to steadily burning fires in buildings
Experimental measurements of temperatures and velocities of hot gases rising from fire and spreading beneath ceilings of various types of buildings are described; in experiments, methylated spirit was burned at steady rate in cylindrical trays; air temperature increases above ambient were measured with fine wire thermocouples, and air velocities were measured with thermocouple anemometer; details of construction of building and ceiling, for which hot air streams were examined, and experimental arrangements used are given.
