The upper limit is lower than for well-ventilated flaming combustion of a given combustible.
The temperature in the upper layer of the fire room is most likely determined by the source of the externally applied radiation and room geometry.
There are few data; but for pyrolysis, this ratio is expected to vary widely depending on the material chemistry and the local ventilation and thermal conditions.
The fire’s oxygen consumption is small compared to that in the room or the inflow, the flame tip is below the hot gas upper layer or the upper layer is not yet
significantly vitiated to increase the CO yield significantly, the flames are not truncated by contact with another object, and the burning rate is controlled by the
availability of fuel.The ratio may be up to an order of magnitude higher for materials that are fire-resistant. There is no significant increase in this ratio for equivalence ratios up
to ≈ 0,75. Between ≈ 0,75 and 1, some increase in this ratio may occur.The fire’s oxygen demand is limited by the ventilation opening(s); the flames extend into the upper layer.
Assumed to be similar to well-ventilated flaming.The plume equivalence ratio has not been measured; the use of a global equivalence ratio is inappropriate.
Instances of lower ratios have been measured. Generally, these result from secondary combustion outside the room vent.

6 Static and dynamic methods
Replace the text of the existing Clause 6 with the following new text:
6.1 Static methods
6.1.1 Principles
In a static smoke test, the test specimen burns in a closed chamber and the smoke produced
builds up over time. In some tests, a fan stirs the smoke to prevent layering and to make it
homogeneous. The amount of smoke is measured by monitoring the attenuation of a light
beam shining through the smoke.6.1.2 Extinction area
The extinction area of the smoke is a useful measure of the amount of smoke produced, and
is a function of the opacity of the smoke, ( I / T ), the volume of the chamber, V, and the light
path length, L.S = (V / L) In (I / T ) (17)
This equation only applies if the smoke is homogeneous. The units of extinction area are
typically square metres (m ).6.1.3 Specific optical density
In some tests, including IEC 60695-6-30 and ISO 5659-2, the amount of smoke is calculated
from the optical density of the smoke, and it is normalised to the surface area of the test
specimen, A. The quantity calculated is D , the specific optical density.D =[]V /(AL) log (I /T ) (18)
s 10
Compartment temperature
---------------------- Page: 11 ----------------------
– 10 – 60695-6-1 Amend. 1 © IEC:2010
The thickness of the test specimen will affect the amount of smoke produced. D values
should not be directly compared for test specimens of different thicknesses. Conversely, if
comparisons are made, then the test specimen thickness should be kept constant.6.1.4 Prediction of visibility
The purpose of measuring D (or S) is to enable the prediction of visibility. However, the
visibility within the test chamber is not usually what is required to be known. What is required
is an estimation of visibility in a given scenario. It is possible to make such estimations based
on data obtained in static tests such as IEC 60695-6-30 but it must be appreciated that such
calculations are only estimates, as changing the fire model will probably change both the
smoke production process and the way in which the smoke will age.6.2 Dynamic methods
6.2.1 Principles
In dynamic tests, the smoke from the test specimen is drawn through an exhaust system at a
measured flow rate and the opacity of the smoke stream is measured at regular intervals by
monitoring the transmitted intensity of a light beam shining through the smoke (see Figure 4).
The flow rate of the smoke is measured at a position close to where the opacity is measured.
& &Smoke with extinction
V L V
coefficient = k
IEC 011/01
Figure 4 – Dynamic smoke measurement
6.2.2 Smoke production rate
The smoke production rate at any given moment ( S ) is calculated using the equation:
• •S = kV (19)
where
V is the volume flow rate of the exhaust gases.
2 –1
S has units of area/time, e.g. m ⋅s .
The smoke production rate is readily ascertained in dynamic systems. It expresses the
extinction area of smoke produced per unit time.& & &
S = kV = (1 / L ) In (I / T )V (20)
When the exposed test specimen area involved is known, as in the cone calorimeter
ASTM E 1354 and ISO 5660, or furniture calorimeters, the smoke production rate can be
normalized per unit area of the exposed test specimen. The units then become reciprocal time,
2 2 –1e.g. (m /s)/m , i.e. s .
---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
60695-6-1 Amend. 1 © IEC:2010 – 11 –
6.2.3 Total smoke production
Integrated data on total smoke production is also of interest, especially when comparing
materials or scenarios that may produce smoke for unequal periods of time. Total smoke
production is measured as the extinction area produced in the defined time interval and is
given by:S = S dt (21)
where
S is the total smoke production, i.e. the total extinction area;
t is the time.
The time over which the summation is performed should be specified. In the cone calorimeter,
this is to the end of the test, which, in simple cases, is when the mass loss rate per unit area
–2 –1of the test specimen has reached a specified value (for example 25 g⋅m ⋅s ). The total
smoke production may be expressed per unit of burning area if this is known.The total smoke production from a burning test specimen, measured in a closed system, will
often be substantially less than the total smoke production from a similar burning test
measured in a dynamic system. This is because measurements in static systems are more
influenced by losses due to ageing and deposition or interaction at the chamber walls.
6.2.4 SMOGRA indexSMOGRA is an abbreviation for Smoke Growth Rate. SMOGRA values are affected by both
the rate of smoke production and the time at which the smoke is being produced, and are
calculated using the following formula:SMOGRA = 10 000 × [SPR (t) / (t-t )] (22)
av 0
where
SPR (t) is the smoke production rate at time t, and
t is the time at which the test specimen is first exposed to the test flame.
The SMOGRA index is defined as the maximum value of the function during the time period of
the test.The SMOGRA index was devised in the development of EN 13823, which is an intermediate
scale corner test used for the regulation of building products in Europe. As a single value
parameter for regulatory purposes, some consider that the SMOGRA index gives a better
indication of the severity of smoke production than either total smoke production or the
average rate of smoke production.NOTE In EN 13823, the SPR value is a 60 s moving average, and the start of exposure of the test specimen to
the test flame is at t = 300 s.Figure 5 shows an example SPR versus t curve, and Figure 6 shows the SMOGRA curve
2 –1derived from these data. The peak smoke production rate is 0,5 m ⋅s at t = 960 s, and the
2 –2SMOGRA index is 8,2 m ⋅s at t = 857 s.
The SMOGRA index may be a useful parameter for assessing smoke hazard because it
combines the smoke production rate with the time elapsed to reach it. Note that the SMOGRA
index always refers to a time shorter than the time of maximum smoke production (in the
given curves, 857 s compared to 960 s).---------------------- Page: 13 ----------------------
– 12 – 60695-6-1 Amend. 1 © IEC:2010
However, the SMOGRA index should be treated with extreme caution in cases where there is
an early rapid but low smoke production. In such cases, the SMOGRA value at small t-t
values may be larger than values calculated from the significant part of the curve and the
obtained SMOGRA index may be both irrelevant and misleading.2 -1
