This Calorimeter is based on ISO 13784-1(Reaction-to-fire test for sandwich panel building system). It reenacts fire in a small room of sandwich construction, and describes test methods that evaluates combustion diffusion in exposed part of assembled sandwich panel or panel inside. also describes test methods that evaluates fire behavior in sandwich panel building structure.

The test principle is to evaluate fire performance of sandwich assembly when exposing flame directly to a small chamber’s inside corner, which is constructed by assembling a sandwich panel. Flame propagation is proceed by the ignition of flammable gases, fragments, and molten drops in the inner core part, the surface part, and connection part of the sandwich panel assembly.

It is a real-life fire evaluation test device. A real-calorimeter of large capacity with maximum heat dissipation rate of 3MW.

The Cone Calorimeter is a method of sampling a certain test material (100 × 100 mm). On the other hand,  the Large Scale Calorimeter is a device that can measure a calorie range of 1 to 3 MW which can be happened in real industrial sites.(Eg fire in a warehouse, fire in an office, fire in furniture, etc.).

▣ Heat release rate

▣ Smoke production rate

▣ Soot mass measurement of smoke particles

▣ Consumption of O2, CO and CO2 yield

▣ Other Toxic Gas by FT-IR
