28、actors. The behaviour of materials and products depends upon the characteristics of the fire, the method of use of the materials, and the environment in which they are exposed (see also ISO 13943).A test such as the one specified in this International Standard deals only with a simple representation
29、 of a particular aspect of the potential fire situation, typified by a radiant heat source, and it cannot alone provide any direct guidance on the behaviour or safety in fire. A test of this type can, however, be used for comparative purposes or to ensure the existence of a certain quality of perfor
30、mance (in this case, heat release from a composite material or an assembly) considered to have a bearing on fire performance generally. It would be wrong to attach any other meaning to performance in this test.The attention of all users of this test is drawn to the warning that immediately precedes
31、Clause 10.5DINEN ISO 13927:2015-08EN ISO 13927:2015 (E) 1 ScopeThis International Standard specifies a method suitable for the production control or product development purposes for assessing the heat release rate of essentially flat products exposed in the horizontal orientation to controlled level
32、s of radiant heating with an external igniter. The heat release rate is determined by the use of a thermopile instead of the more accurate oxygen consumption techniques. The time to ignition (sustained flaming) is also measured in this test. Test specimen mass loss can also be measured optionally.2

39、ilowatts (kW/m2)qmaxmaximum heat release rate per unit area, expressed in kilowatts (kW/m2)5 PrincipleThe heat release rate is assessed by measurement of the output of a thermopile located in a chimney situated above a burning test specimen that is subjected to a known heat flux from a conical heate

The output (in mV) which represents temperature (in C) is converted into heat release rate per unit area (in kW/m2) by use of a calibration graph obtained previously by burning methane gas of known calorific value in the same apparatus. The specimen mass loss rate during the test can also be meas
41、ured by continuously recording the specimen load cell output.6 Apparatus6.1 GeneralThe test apparatus shall consist essentially of the following components: a cone-shaped radiant heater, a chimney housing a thermopile, a load cell, a specimen holder, and a fume extraction system.

46、ion may be used. The heater shall be capable of producing heat fluxes on the surface of the specimen of up to 75 kW/m2. The heat flux shall be uniform within the central 50 mm 50 mm area of the exposed specimen surface to within 2 % for an irradiance of 50 kW/m2.The cone heater shall be provided wit
