Experimental study on upward flame spread characteristics of external thermal insulation material under the influence of porosity

Upward flame spread characteristics over extruded polystyrene (XPS) foams with different porosities has been analyzed through experiments. In this paper, the average flame height and average maximum flame temperature first rise and then drop with increasing porosity, which is affected by the fuel an...
