Location of the burner (against a wall or in a corner), power program of the gas burner ignition source, and combination of wall linings were varied, An initial series of calibration...

This paper reviews the overall results of related projects in which different test protocols for standard room/corner tests were used. Differences in the test protocols involved two options for the ignition burner scenario and whether...
