Cone calorimeter stage while in use. Note that thermoplastic walls surround the apparatus, providing safe separation between the flame and the scientist.
A cone calorimeter is an instrument used to study the behavior of fire in small samples of condensed phase materials. It is widely used in the field of fire safety engineering and in oxygen consumption calorimetry.[1]
The instrument gathers data about the ignition time, mass loss, combustion products, heat release rate, and other parameters associated with the sample's burning properties. The measurement of the heat release rate is based on Huggett's principle[2] that the gross heat of combustion of any organic material is directly related to the amount of oxygen required for combustion. Its name comes from the conical shape of a radiant heater incorporated into the instrument that can produce a nearly uniform heat flux over the surface of the sample under study.[3]
