scope:
Specifies a method suitable for production control or product development purposes, for assessing the heat release rate of essentially flat products exposed in the horizontal orientation to controlled levels of radiant heating with an external igniter. The heat release rate is determined by use of a thermopile instead of the more accurate oxygen consumption techniques. The time to ignition (sustained flaming) is also measured in the test. Test specimen mass loss may optinally also be measured.
