Material flammability characteristics that are quantified by varying an externally applied heat flux include time to ignition (tign), chemical (Qchem) and Convective (Qc) heat release rates, mass loss rates (m), smoke extinction coefficient (D) and metal loss (Closs) due to corrosion from combustion products.
