Plastics - Simple heat release test using a conical radiant heater and a thermopile detector (ISO 13927:2015)

ISO 13927:2015 specifies a method suitable for the production control or product development purposes for assessing the heat release rate of essentially flat products exposed in the horizontal orientation to controlled levels of radiant heating with an external igniter. The heat release rate is determined by the use of a thermopile instead of the more accurate oxygen consumption techniques. The time to ignition (sustained flaming) is also measured in this test. Test specimen mass loss can also be measured optionally.

Plastiques - Essai simple pour la détermination du débit calorifique au moyen d'un radiateur conique et d'une sonde à thermopile (ISO 13927:2015)

L'ISO 13927:2015 spécifie une méthode adaptée au contrôle de la production ou au développement de produit permettant l'évaluation du débit calorifique de produits essentiellement plats exposés suivant une orientation horizontale à des niveaux contrôlés de chaleur rayonnante, avec un dispositif d'allumage externe. Le débit calorifique est déterminé au moyen d'une thermopile plutôt qu'à l'aide de techniques plus précises de consommation d'oxygène. Le temps d'allumage (flamme persistante) est aussi mesuré pendant l'essai. La perte de masse de l'éprouvette peut également être mesurée, facultativement.
