abstract="The ASTM E-2058 fire propagation apparatus (FPA) is capable of measuring time to ignition, chemical and convective heat release rates, mass loss rate, smoke generation rate, generation rates of CO, CO, and O-2 consumption rate, effective (chemical) heat of combustion and vertical fire propagation of materials. The original design of the FPA incorporated a vertical exhaust system with the measurement section finishing about 3.5 m from the floor. The exhaust measuring duct of the new FPA is horizontally oriented to enable its use in a wider range of laboratory environments. In this paper, the functionality of the new FPA was compared with the original FPA. The measurements and results indicate that the performance of the new FPA is equivalent to the original FPA.",
