Comparison of Smoke Generation in NBS Smoke Density Chamber and in Full Scale Fire Tests
The aim of the work was to investigate if there is correlation in smoke generation between NBS smoke density chamber tests and full scale fire tests. Comparative tests were performed with four materials (wood, chipboard, polystyrene foam and polyurethane foam) with the NBS test method and in full scale in a small test house. Two full scale test series were made corresponding to ignition phase of a fire and to fully developed fire. The best correlation was found to be between the NBS smoke density chamber tests with pilot flame and the ignition phase tests, but even in this case there was a difference in numerical results.
