Abstract

Large scale fire tests involving actual products and prototypes are of major importance in that they enable the interactions of various materials, prototypes and design features to be evaluated. The fire regime can be selected to reproduce the anticipated end-use hazard.This paper discusses the various approaches used to measure smoke in large scale fire tests, and their requirement and their limitations, as well as correlations between full scale test rigs.
