Measurement of Pyrolysis Properties for Fire Spread Simulation of Cables

The analysis and review of the thermal decomposition properties required for fire spread simulation cables composed multiple materials were performed. Thus, a typical two-step pyrolysis reaction was identified independent cable type. It is expected that Kissinger flynn–wall–ozawa (FWO) methods, which are calculated using various heating rates, more accurately predict than input method uses values single rate. Consequently, in case flame-retardant (CLASS 1E TFR-8), likely to overestimate rate FWO method. In polyvinyl chloride (PVC) (vinyl cabtire power cable, VCTF), may be underestimated.
