The work of preparing International Standards is n

16、ormally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part i

17、n the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Technical Reports are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. The main task of technical committees is to prepare In

18、ternational Standards, but in exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication of a Technical Report of one of the following types: type 1, when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an International Standard, despite repeated efforts; type 2, whe

19、n the subject is still under technical development or where for any other reason there is the future but not immediate possibility of an agreement on an International Standard; type 3, when a technical committee has collected data of a different kind from that which is normally published as an Inter

20、national Standard (“state of the art”, for example). Technical Reports of types 1 and 2 are subject to review within three years of publication, to decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. Technical Reports of type 3 do not necessarily have to be reviewed until the data t

21、hey provide are considered to be no longer valid or useful. ISO/TR 11925-1, which is a Technical Report of type 3, was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 92, Fire safety, Subcommittee SC 1, Reaction to fire. ISO/TR 11925 consists of the following parts, under the general title Reaction to fire t

22、ests Ignitability of building products subjected to direct impingement of flame: Part 1: Guidance on ignitability; Part 2: Single flame source test; Part 3: Multi-source test.BSISOTR11925-1:1999 BSI 04-2000 1 Introduction Ignitability of materials is of basic importance when fire hazard is analysed

23、because of two reasons: First, at the initiation of a fire some object or local area is ignited, and second, during the fire growth period ignitability is an essential factor in fire spread to the other parts of a room or compartment. In buildings the structural, lining and furnishing materials are

24、solids, which require external heating to achieve flaming combustion. The ignition condition can be characterized by the minimum surface temperature at which the flow of volatiles is sufficient for sustained flaming. However, the difference in these temperatures between materials is not large. Hence

25、 it is usually more important to take into account the time of exposure and the thermal properties of the material when assessing risk of ignition. When a material is exposed to an external heat flux (radiative, convective, conductive or a combination), its surface temperature starts to rise. The te

26、mperature inside the solid also increases with time, but at a slower rate. Provided the net flux into the material is sufficiently high, eventually the surface temperature reaches a level at which pyrolysis begins. The vapours generated emerge through the exposed surface and mix with air in the boun

27、dary layer. Under certain conditions this mixture exceeds the lower flammability limit and ignites. The initiation of flaming combustion as described above is termed flaming ignition. For some materials or under certain conditions, combustion is not in the gas phase but in the solid phase. In such c

28、ases no flame can be observed and the surface is glowing. This quite different phenomenon is termed smouldering ignition. The definition of ignition has been debated in many fora. It is most usually defined as the presence of a flame on a surface, or more simply the persistence of flame. Some docume

29、nts try to subdivide the ignition process in three ways: flashing (less than 1s of flaming); transient ignition (greater than 1s and less than4s); and sustained ignition (more than 4s of flame). Other documents define ignition as the persistence of flame for greater than 10s. Many of the definitions

30、 have been derived from apparatus-dependent parameters. All definitions have their merits and all have been well discussed. This Technical Report describes and characterizes the “real fire” ignition sources, the ignition sources used in the testing of materials and products, and any correlation betw

31、een those and “real fire” sources. Some of the theoretical principles of ignition and ignitability are also addressed. The majority of ignitability tests used internationally are based on the direct application of a flame. A few tests involve radiative heating of the material but generally also requ

32、ire some form of pilot source whether a flame or a spark. In general the ignition sources used have some relevance to end-use hazard. ISO/TC 92/SC 1 has concentrated on the development of tests to simulate ignitability by a range of flame sources of increasing size and also a piloted (by flame) radi

33、ative ignition source, see ISO 11925-2 and ISO11925-3 and ISO 5657, respectively. The guidance given in this Technical Report should enable choice of the appropriate ignition source when related to the end-use application of the material or product being assessed. A comprehensive review of piloted i

34、gnition and ignitability test methods is also given in ISO/TR 11696-1. ISO 11093 also provides a brief description for a number (13) of different types of ignition source and is a reference document for persons seeking descriptions of the standardized source apparatusBSISOTR11925-1:1999 2 BSI 04-200

35、0 1 Scope This Technical Report provides guidance on “ignitability” tests for building products. It describes the principles of ignitability and characterizes different ignition sources. The results of small-scale ignitability tests may be used as a component of a total hazard analysis of a specifie

36、d fire scenario. It is therefore important that the flame or radiative source chosen is fully characterized so that relevant conclusions may be made from the test results. Guidance given in this Technical Report may also have relevance to other application areas (e.g. building contents, plastics, et

41、nition sources. Statistical analysis of real fires conducted in many countries has identified the most common primary and secondary sources especially in fires within buildings. The most frequent sources of fires may be the following. a) Cooking appliances (electric and gas) b) Space heating applian

42、ces (electric, gas and solid fuel) c) Electrical wiring d) Other electrical appliances (such as washing machines, bedwarmers, televisions, water heaters) e) Cigarettes f) Matches and smokers gas lighters g) Blow lamps, blow torches and welding torches, hot metal h) Rubbish burning, e.g. in waste pap

43、er baskets or in bins or accumulated piles i) Candles The items first ignited are probably the following. a) Food including cooking fat b) Gases, i.e. mains gas and bottled gasses c) Liquids, e.g. petroleum, paint spirits d) Textiles, e.g. clothing, curtains e) Upholstery, e.g. chairs, beds, sofas,

44、etc. f) Floorcoverings 1) To be published.BSISOTR11925-1:1999 BSI 04-2000 3 g) Building structures, e.g. wall linings, ceilings, partitions. h) Electrical wiring Smouldering ignition sources are particularly insidious in real fire situations since they can involve a considerable induction period bef

45、ore flaming combustion develops. In general, the real source is used in standardized tests (e.g. the cigarette, which is defined in terms of its burning rate). Primary ignition sources (i.e. sources which directly cause ignition), range from relatively common sources such as matches to fires ignited

46、 from radiant heaters. Gas flames (e.g. cigarette lighters, welding torches etc.) can also cause fires if carelessly used. Gas or electric radiant heaters may raise the temperature of materials above their flash or self-ignition temperatures. Radiant heaters can cause ignition by radiant heat alone.

47、 Other radiant heat sources include electric light bulbs which can cause high local temperatures. Secondary ignition sources do not directly cause ignition but can be ignited using primary sources (e.g. matches or cigarettes) and then burn to produce a large ignition source. Secondary sources includ

48、e waste paper baskets, newspapers or journals, clothing, loose furnishings, upholstery, etc. These items, once themselves ignited, may then spread the fire either by direct flame impingement or by radiative and convective ignition. The list below details the type of sources in each category. a) Prim

49、ary source b) Secondary sources 3.2 Characteristics of flame sources A major consideration in the selection of the type of ignition source in any test must come from a knowledge of the real fire and its associated heat fluxes. In theory, this could range from zero to an upper value of FT 4where T is the maximum flame temperature. The maximum flame temperature for most common fuels is approximately 2300 K 1. Since the Stefan Boltzman constant F is 5,67 10 11kWm 2 K 4 , a maximum irradiance
