Cone Calorimeter Analysis of UL-94 V-Rated Plastics

June 1, 2007
Author(s)
A B. Morgan, Matthew F. Bundy
Cone calorimeter analysis was conducted on 18 thermoplastics with different UL-94 vertical burn test (V) ratings. Ratings varied from V-0 to no rating (NR), and the types of thermoplastics included were polycarbonate (PC), acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene

Characterization of Candle Flames

November 1, 2005
Author(s)
Anthony P. Hamins, Matthew F. Bundy, Scott E. Dillon
Common household open flame and radiant ignition sources are the actual or suspected cause for many fires. The purpose of this research is to identify the burning behavior and properties of common candles in order to provide additional tools for use by

Characterization of Candles Flames as Ignition Sources

November 1, 2005
Author(s)
Scott E. Dillon, Anthony Hamins, Matthew Bundy
Common household open flame and radiant ignition sources are the actual or suspected cause for many fires. Because of their popular use, fire investigators have identified candles as one of the most important of these ignition sources. In spite of this

Full-Scale Flammability Measures for Electronic Equipment.

December 1, 2004
Author(s)
Matthew F. Bundy, Thomas J. Ohlemiller
This report describes an experimental investigation by NIST to study the fire hazard of electronic equipment having thermoplastic enclosures. This work was part of the project titled "Flammability Measures for Electronic Equipment" which was supported

Bench-Scale Flammability Measures for Electronic Equipment

July 1, 2003
Author(s)
Matthew F. Bundy, Thomas J. Ohlemiller
An experimental study of the bench-scale fire performance of 18 commercial polymeric materials was conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The performance of these materials was characterized using three standard flammability tests

Suppression Limits of Low Strain Rate Non-Premixed Methane Flames

May 1, 2003
Author(s)
Matthew F. Bundy, Anthony P. Hamins, Ki Y. Lee
The suppression of low strain rate non-premixed flames was investigated experimentally in a counterflow configuration for laminar flames with minimal conductive heat losses. This was accomplished by varying the velocity ratio of fuel to oxidizer to adjust

Suppression of Low Strain Rate Flames by an Agent (NISTIR 6588)

November 1, 2000
Author(s)
Anthony P. Hamins, Matthew F. Bundy, I K. Puri
The structure and suppression of low strain rate methane-air nonpremixed flames were investigated experimentally and computationally. Measurements of the critical suppression conditions were conducted using N2, CO2, and CF3Br added to the fuel or oxidizer

Creeping Flame Spread Along Fuel Cylinders in Forced and Natural Flows and Microgravity

July 20, 2000
Author(s)
M A. Delichatsios, R A. Altenkirch, Matthew Bundy, S Bhattacharjee, L Tang, K Sacksteder
Semianalytical expressions are developed for creeping flame spread parallel to a fuel cylinder axis so that spread rates measured or predicted for flat surfaces over the same material can be directly used for cylindrical surfaces. Two phenomena are
