Study of flashover in full-scale room fires using imaging technologies / M. Hamed Mozaffari, Yuchuan Li, Mark Weinfurter, Yoon Ko. : NR24-127/2024E-PDF

"This report presents findings from seven full-scale room fire test experiments undertaken at the Fire Safety Unit (SFU) of the National Research Council Canada (NRCC). The primary objective of this set of tests was to gather data for use in the analysis of room fire dynamics, with a specific focus on the analysis, detection and prediction of the flashover phenomenon. Briefly, flashover is the last indication for a building to be tenable, which means that after that (post-flashover), it is almost impossible for tenants to be alive in the room. The time window from ignition to flashover is typically about five minutes, underscoring the urgency in predicting this event to enhance both civilian and firefighter safety"--Executive summary, page vi.
