Fully-Developed Compartment Fires - Two Kinds of Behaviour
The paper summarizes some of the work done at the Fire Research Station on fully-developed compartment fires and explains the two types of behaviour that have been observed. It is shown that fire load per unit window area and fuel thickness are more important than other factors in determining the duration of such fires and a theory is presented which shows how this arises. There is a relationship between the radiation emitted from windows and the burning rate, and this has important practical and theoretical consequences. (Author)
