Determination of Ignition Temperature of Organic Dust Layers

Article Preview

Abstract:

Fire characteristics of wood dusts serve for qualitative comparison of combustibility and explosibility, for suggesting precautionary measures, for predicting consequences of fires and explosions. Setting of given characteristics by calculation is not possible yet. Therefore the most reliable results are set by experiment. The article deals with the testing of the minimum ignition temperature depending on the different types of dust layer and different heights of surface.
