Combustion Performance of Composite Floor with Different Radiant Heat Flux

Abstract:

The combustion performance of engineered wood flooring and intensive composite floor under the different radiation heat flux were experimented by cone calorimeter. Fire parameters were measured including the ignition time and heat release rate. Experimental results show that the ignition time of engineered wood flooring is much lower than intensive composite floor, and the ignition time are decreased with the increase of radiation heat flux. The heat release rate (HRR) curve has two peaks under the same radiation heat flux, and the first peak of the heat release rate of engineered wood flooring occurs significantly earlier than intensive composite floor. The heat release rate is increased and the first peak significantly ahead of time with the increase of the radiation intensity
