Abstract

Wood cribs free burning tests were conducted under ISO9705 hood. From the tests, the heat release rate of these cribs was grouped as 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 MW. This result was used to correct an empirical formula for peak heat release rate calculation. The correction achieves acceptable accuracy for the typical wood. The test result also shown heat release rate curve can be normalized by the total combustion surface of the wood crib. This can also be used to predict the HRR of wood crib of certain sizes and structures.
