Combustion properties of Brazilian natural wood species
This paper investigates the combustion characteristics of 12 wood species natural to Brazil. A mass loss cone calorimeter was used to obtain the properties associated with (i) heat release rate (HRR), peak HRR, and total heat released; (ii) total mass loss and mass loss rate; (iii) average effective heat of combustion; and (iv) time to ignition, time of pyrolysis and temperature of ignition. The samples used in this work were as follows: (i) prepared in accordance to ISO 5660‐1:2002; (ii) oven dried; (iii) irradiated with a constant heat flux of 50 kW/m 2 ; and (iv) exhibit wood fiber orientation in a plane orthogonal to the flux incidence. Finally, the paper explores the possibility of linking the obtained combustion properties with the density and classes of selected wood species. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
