    Notes: Raman scattering is a possible technique for analysing gas mixtures. In the work here described Raman scattering was used for detection of gases extracted from different model fires, where wood, polymethylmetachrylate (PMMA) and polystyrene were used as test materials. Raman spectra of gas samples from differently ventilated model fires are presented as well as the variation of O2, CO2 and CO concentrations as a function of time with an effective time constant of less than 5 s. The sensitivity of the experimental set-up was estimated to be about 1000 ppm, but suggestions are given how to reach a detection limit of about 1 ppm. The feasibility of the technique and various ways of improving it are briefly discussed.

    Notes: Three test methods for measuring the rate of heat release, RHR, have been compared on the same building materials. The test methods are the OSU-box modified for O2-consumption, the STFI open arrangement and the NBS cone calorimeter. All methods are based on the oxygen-consumption technique. Radiation intensities up to 50 k Wm-2 have been applied. Thirteen different materials were tested. The results obtained using the three methods seem to be quite similar in spite of the different equipment used. The minor deviations observed in the results seem to be systematic and may be due to the different testing arrangements. There is a good correlation between results, e.g. total heat release up to 1min after ignition, obtained by the different methods. Additional information about the time to ignition is obtained simultaneously. Heat-release rates in the vertical and horizontal orientations are also compared in the NBS cone calorimeter.
