Temperature Calculation of Insulated Steel Columns Exposed to Natural Fire
A method which allows approximate post flashover compartment fire temperature to be plotted versus time in one curve, the general natural fire curve, was developed. The time is modified to reflect ventilation conditions and wall properties. Standard assumptions as to constant and ventilation controlled combustion, uniform temperature, and wall losses proportional to the thermal inertia were made. The curve was used to calculate temperature in fire exposed insulated columns by a simple integration procedure. The results are plotted in diagrams. The theory is verified by plotting natural standard fire temperatures against modified times. Opening factor curves show little discrepancy.
