The above list covers the major primary ignition sources for accidental fire

13、s. Other sources may be involved in fires raised maliciously. Research into causes of fires has shown that primary ignition sources (e.g. glowing cigarettes or dropped flaming matches) can set fire to waste paper, which then acts as a secondary ignition source of greater intensity. When analysing an

14、d evaluating the various ignition sources for applications involving plastics materials, the following questions need to be answered on the basis of detailed fire statistics: a) What is the significance of the individual ignition sources in various fire risk situations? b) What proportion is attribu

15、table to secondary ignition sources? c) Where does particular attention have to be paid to secondary ignition sources? d) To what extent are different ignition sources responsible for fatal fire accidents? The following laboratory ignition sources are intended to simulate actual ignition sources tha

Laboratory ignition sources are preferred over actual ignition sources due to their consistency which results in greater data repeatability within a laboratory and greater reproducibility between laboratories. These laboratory ignit

37、0093:1998 4 Ignition processes 4.1 When plastics are exposed to thermal energy, flammable vapours may be generated from their surface. Under suitable conditions (especially high temperatures), a critical concentration of flammable vapour may form and spontaneous ignition will result. If a flame is p

38、resent as the sole energy source, or as a supplementary source, the ignition process will be assisted; this mechanism is sometimes known as pilot ignition. 4.2 A specimen of plastic is regarded as ignited when flames appear on the surface of the plastic or when glowing combustion is evident. 4.3 Aft

39、er ignition has occurred, some burning plastics create additional fire hazards by forming flaming debris or drips. If this flaming debris falls on to combustible material, secondary ignition may occur and the fire will spread more rapidly. 4.4 The locaked application of a heat source to some plastic

40、s results in glowing combustion. With some thermoplastic foams and foams from thermosetting materials the localized application of a heat source results in punking which produces a carbonaceous char. 5 Characteristics of ignition sources 5.1 The main characteristics of ignition sources and their rel

41、ation to the test specimen may be defined by the following factors: a) The intensity of the ignition source. This is a measure of the thermal load on the specimen resulting from the combined conduction, convection and radiation effects caused by the ignition source. b) The area of impingement of the

42、 ignition source on the specimen. c) The duration of exposure of the specimen and whether it is continuous or intermittent. d) The presentation of the ignition source to the specimen and whether or not it impinges. e) The orientation of the specimen in relation to the ignition source. 9 The ventilat

43、ion conditions in the vicinity of the ignition source and exposed surface of the specimen. 5.2 The ignition sources described in clause 7 provide a range of intensities and areas of impingement to be considered for use in fire tests of plastics. NOTE Factors c) to f) may be determined when the speci

44、fic fire test conditions have been decided. 6 Experimental principles 6.1 Flame ignition sources of two iypes have been selected. 6.1.1 Dithision flame source To form a dfhrsion flame source, gas (usualiy propane, methane or butane) flows through stainless-steel tubes without ingress of air prior to

45、 the base of the flame. NOTE presentation is required toward the specimen. 6.1.2 Promhd flame source These flames simulate natural flames well but they often fluctuate and are not convenient to direct if any angular To form a pr0mixed flame source, a gas burner (usually using propane, methane or but

46、ane) fitted with air inlet ports or an air intake manifold is used. 4 STD-BSI BS EN IS0 L0093-ENGL L?q LbZi.lbb9 07Li3897 5b2 E EN IS0 10093:1998 E DF PF R NOTES Electric Overheated wire; arcs Diffusion flame Match; candle Premixed flame Laboratory-burner; blow-lamp Non-contacting radiant Electric f

47、ire; radiant heat from a developing or established accidental fire 1 Premixed flame sources are more directional than diffusion flame sources and are more suitable for some laboratory quality assurance tests. 2 Premixed flame sources are generally hotter than diffusion flame sources. 6.2 It is recom

48、mended (mandatory for some test methods) that gas burners are always set up to conform to precise gas flow rates and/or flame heights. Secondary checks of flame temperature or heat flux should be performed periodically but criteria on these parameters should not be an essential patt of the laborator

49、y procedure. After setting up the burner for a particular test (.e. often at an acute angle to the test specimen), it is desirable to leave the burner in this orientation throughout a series of experiments. This objective is conveniently satisfied if the operator only has to maintain the gas flow constant to the bumer. 6.3 The gas burners are connected to the gas supply by flexible tubing via a cylinder regulator providing an outlet pressure, on-off valve, fine-control valve and flowmeter. 6.4 Difficulties sometimes occur with the supply
