Corrie, J.G., 1976. THE EFFECT OF FOAM LIQUID CONCENTRATIONS ON FIRE PERFORMANCE ON LABORATORY FIRES. Fire Research Notes 1047


ABSTRACT

The effect of deterioration of foaming solutions of fluoroprotein and fluorochemical liquids has been simulated by dilution, and the consequent change in performance has been measured by means of the new 0.25 m^2 test fire described in FR Note No.1007. The results obtained are compared with earlier ones on the Defence Standard 42-3 fire of 0.28 m^2 area, over which the new fire is shown to have advantages.
