THE CORRELATION OF IGNITION TIME WITH THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS PART I: SPONTANEOUS IGNITION OF CELLULOSIC MATERIALS

Simms, D.L., 1958. THE CORRELATION OF IGNITION TIME WITH THE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MATERIALS PART I: SPONTANEOUS IGNITION OF CELLULOSIC MATERIALS. Fire Research Notes 319


ABSTRACT

The time taken to ignite cellulosic materials when subjected to thermal radiation of an intensity greater than 1 cal.cm-2s-1, may be correlated with intensity of irradiation in terms of the thermal balance of the solid.
