SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TESTING THE FLAMMABILITY PROPERTIES OF A MATERIAL WITH THE HELP OF A SPARKED COMBUSTION

A combustion test system (100) includes a power source (120) and a corona generator (122) coupled to the power source (120). The combustion test system (100) also includes a charge storage device (128). The charge storage device (128) includes a charging surface (126) spaced apart from the corona ge...

More Information
Summary:A combustion test system (100) includes a power source (120) and a corona generator (122) coupled to the power source (120). The combustion test system (100) also includes a charge storage device (128). The charge storage device (128) includes a charging surface (126) spaced apart from the corona generator (122) such that charge carriers (124), motivated by an electric field (114) of the corona generator (122), intersect the charging surface (126) to charge the charge storage device (128). The combustion test system (100) also includes a first electrode (132) coupled to the charge storage device (128) and a second electrode (134) coupled to a reference ground (112). The second electrode (134) is spaced apart from the first electrode (132) to produce an electrical arc (136) between the first electrode (132) and the second electrode (134) based on a voltage difference between the first electrode (132) and the second electrode (134).
