title = "Experimental data from gas burner fires in residential structure with HVAC system",
abstract = "The fire modeling community currently lacks full-scale experi- mental data from fires in residential-style structures with heat- ing, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems. Further, there is an absence of data quantifying the generation of H2O due to combustion and the subsequent transport of those gases with a structure. Propane gas burner fire experiments were con- ducted in a purpose-built two-story structure instrumented to measure temperature, pressure, velocity, and gas concentrations. Experiments were conducted to assess heat and gas species trans- fer due to HVAC operating status (off vs. on), fire location and heat release rate, and bedroom door position (open vs. closed).",

note = "The authors acknowledge the following individuals from the UL FSRI team for their assis- tance during all portions of the project: Nick Dow, Gavin Horn, Sarah Huffman, Brad Morrissey and Stephen Robert. The UL FSRI team instrumented, conducted, and collected data from these experiments. Additionally, the authors would like to extend a special thanks to Roy McLane of Thermal Fabrication for his tireless support in both the planning and execution of the experiments involved. Finally, under the direction of Kerby Kerber, the Delaware County (PA) Emergency Services Training Center provided the much needed logistical support for these experiments.
