BRK, PF, rep 2

Brick

Description

This experiment is on a system consisting of a Brick cladding and a Phenolic (PF) foam insulation panel, separated with a cavity of 50 mm width. It is the second repetition of this system configuration.

Experiment Notes

Smouldering in the Phenolic foam insulation was seen to propagate at the end of the experiment, leading to a peak HRR of 25 kW, 49 minutes after the beggining of the test, eventually leading to the complete consumption of the Phenolic insulation panel.
