1 Public Input No. 4-NFPA [ Section No ] Indices resulting from the test methods include critical heat flux (CHF), thermal response parameter (TRP), fire propagation index (FPI), effective heat of combustion (EHC), and smoke yield (ys ) and smoke damage index (SDI). Reference to the Smoke Damage Index (SDI) is needed as it is part of the test method. Submitter Full Name: Mohammed Khan Submittal Date: Tue Dec 02 14:47:39 EST 2014 Resolution: FR-1-NFPA Statement: Reference to the Smoke Damage Index (SI) is needed as it is part of the test method.

3 1.3 Symbols.

4 The following symbols are used in this document. A d = cross-sectional area of test section duct (m 2 ) CHF = critical heat flux (kw/m 2 ) c p = specific heat of air at constant pressure (kj/kg K) extinction coefficient obtained from test section duct laser smoke measuring D = system (m -1 ) EHC = effective heat of combustion (kj/kg) FPI = fire propagation index (m 5/3 /kw 2/3 sec 1/2 ) = mass flow rate of CO in test section duct (kg/sec) = mass flow rate of CO 2 in test section duct (kg/sec) I/I a = ratio of light intensity measured by laser smoke measuring system to the average value before ignition ( ) M loss K = flow coefficient of averaging pitot tube [duct gas velocity/(2 p m /ρ) 1/2 ] ( ) L = light beam path length for laser smoke measuring system in test section duct (m) = ultimate change in specimen mass resulting from a combustion test (kg) = mass loss rate of specimen resulting from combustion (kg/sec) = mass flow rate of gases in the test section duct (kg/sec) P atm p m = atmospheric pressure (Pa) = pressure differential across averaging pitot tube in test section duct (Pa) = chemical heat release rate (kw) = convective heat release rate (kw) SDI = smoke damage index = y s FPI (m 5/3 /kw 2/3 sec 1/2 ) T a T d = average gas temperature in test section duct before ignition (K) = gas temperature in test section duct (K) X CO 2 TRP = thermal response parameter (kw sec 1/2 /m 2 ) t = time (sec) t = time between data scans (sec) W = = total volumetric flow rate in test section duct (m 3 /sec) = horizontal width of a flat specimen or the circumference of a cable specimen (m) measured carbon dioxide analyzer reading or mole fraction of carbon dioxide ( ) X CO = measured carbon monoxide analyzer reading or mole fraction of CO ( ) y s = mass of smoke particulates generated per unit mass of fuel vaporized ( )

5 Superscripts = per unit time (sec 1 ) 0 = average value before ignition of the specimen Subscripts d = test section duct Added symbol for SDI in section 1.3 for consistency with other proposed text in section 1.2.
