Abstract:
The preceding papers have presented an apparatus and procedures for the study of heat transfer on contact with flame (1), and the validation of a mathematical system of analysis of the data so obtained (2). The present report describes the procedure for the determination of diffusivity and thermal conductivity and its application to fabrics made of the heat resistant synthetic (DuPont HT-1) discussed in the first of this series of papers.

Abstract:
Mathematical equations for transient heat flow through a two-layer wall are examined, corrected and validated experimentally for application to thi8n layers of material (0 to 1mm thick) during short term heating (3 sec) in gas flames.

Abstract:
A series of studies of heat transfer through lightweight fabric of a new-resistant, non-flammable synethic fiber in contact with fuel flames serves to illustrate a system for determination of such thermal behavior. In this paper the method and data are given for ascertaining the destruction temperature of the fabric, its resistance to heat transfer, and the insulation effect of air-spaces between two layers of the material.

Abstract:
Edited transcript of two-day conference held at Boston, Massachusetts, October 2-3, 1962, under the joint sponsorship of the National Fire Protection Association and the U.S. Public Health Service of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. The Conference reviewed the effects of textile flammability on the records of fires and fire casualties and discussed possible solutions to the problem. The papers presented and the discussions are summarized here. Transcripts of the meeting are on file at the headquarters offices of the sponsors.
