Reevaluation of Burner Characteristics for Fire Resistance Tests.

Abstract

Laboratory evaluations were performed to determine the flame characteristics of the Lennox OB-32 conversion oil burner. Three commercially available burners were modified to produce a flame with Characteristics similar to the Lennox OB-32. Various apparatus used in this determination are described in this report. It was concluded that the three burners tested could be modified to produce flame patterns and characteristics comparable to the Lennox OB-32 conversion oil burner. The burner described in this report has been used to determine the fire resistance of flexible hose assemblies under simulated conditions. The test was aimed at producing a typical aircraft powerplant fire. (Author)
