Developing a solid decomposition kinetics extraction framework for detailed chemistry pyrolysis and combustion modelling of building polymer composites

Anthony Chun Yin Yuen et al.

Summary: The combustibility of insulation and external facade is a critical issue in modern building structures. This study proposes a systematic framework using computational approaches and experimental techniques to assess the potential risks associated with building polymers. The framework includes a five-step procedure and aims to establish a numerical database for up-scaled modeling. The study focuses on the flammability and combustion gases releases of polyethelene (PE) and examines the effect of flame-retardants and carbon-based enhancing agents using CFD modeling.

Fire Propagation Characteristics and Fire Risks of Polyurethanes: Effects of Material Type (Foam & Board) and Added Flame Retardant

Ji Hun Choi et al.

Summary: This study investigates the flame propagation characteristics of polyurethane and the influence of adding flame retardants. Multiple tests were conducted to examine ignition properties, flame propagation behavior, heat release, and toxicity. The results show that polyurethane with flame retardants exhibits slower flame propagation, residual flame, and delayed energy transfer to the inside.

Fire Behaviour of Insulation Panels Commonly Used in High-Rise Buildings

Md Delwar Hossain et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the fire performance of lightweight polystyrene insulation panels commonly used in high-rise buildings. By conducting fire tests, the flammability characteristics of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and extruded polystyrene (XPS) were determined, and the effect of a fire-rated foil layer on sandwich panels was studied.

A systematic approach to formulate numerical kinetics for furnishing materials fire simulation with validation procedure using cone/FT-IR data

Luzhe Liu et al.

Summary: Recent developments in composite polymer materials have led to increased usage of synthetic materials in interior furnishing, but there is a need for a comprehensive understanding of material flammability and harmful gas emissions in fire conditions. The study characterized combustion performances and real-time emission profiles of polymeric foams using cone calorimeter and FT-IR, while also utilizing a fire dynamics simulator model to numerically analyze burning characteristics of the selected materials.

Burning behaviour of rainscreen facades

Nicola Jones et al.

Summary: Four reduced-height BS 8414-1 facade flammability tests were conducted, showing the importance of non-combustible facade products, not just the outer panels. The different insulation materials had varying impacts on the internal temperatures of the facade, which is crucial for fire spread.

Experimental investigations on the influence of 'chimney-effect' on fire response of rainscreen facades in high-rise buildings

Ankit Sharma et al.

Summary: A new experimental setup was developed and demonstrated for initial screening of facade assembly at a lab-scale, showing the increased fire hazards with external cladding and continuous insulation in chimney-like structures. The presence of a chimney effect led to significantly higher mass burning rate, flame height, and temperature compared to tests without chimney effect, indicating the importance of studying fire behavior under such conditions.
