Full-Scale Burning Behavior of Curtains and Draperies
To better understand the burning in room fire development, 38 full-scale drapery and curtain burn experiments were conducted in a 3 x 4.9 m (10 x 16 ft) room. The variables investigated included fabric and lining type, fabric weight, and position of the draperies (open vs closed). As each burning experiment progressed a number of conditions were continuously monitored such as rate of drapery consumption, air temperature increase, smoke and toxic gas generation, and radiant energy developed. Ignition of sample wall and ceiling panels was also monitored.
