Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 14934 provides guidance on the use of heat flux
meters in fire testing applications, including the description and
working principles of common heat flux meters and methods for their
selection and maintenance. The guidance can also be applied to
measuring heat flux from radiant panels and other large heat
sources used to simulate the heat flux from a fire. It is
applicable for all common testing purposes when measuring heat flux
from radiant sources.
This part of ISO 14934 also provides basic theory and working
principles of heat flux meters and methods for selection, use, and
maintenance of heat flux meters. Although it is particularly aimed
at the application of heat flux meters in fire tests and
experimental works of fire research, it can also serve as a guide
for other research applications like research of boilers,
combustion processes, etc.
Instruments, which measure the transient temperature of a solid
body of known mass and heat capacity to infer the heat flux (slug
calorimeter type), are not covered by this part of ISO 14934.
