Experimental Investigation of Ventilation Effects on Combustion Efficiency and Heat Release Rate in Small-Scale Compartment Fires by Weiheng Li, Yong Sheng, Qishuo Liao, Qi Yu, Zhiqiang Xiao, Guo Chen, Hao Wang, Peng Lin

“…It was found that the so-called ventilation constant can hardly be a constant, and it varied greatly, around 0.357–0.436, at different ventilation conditions. The overall combustion efficiency varied greatly at different opening sizes and flow rates, and it was as low as 0.5, even when the flame was ejected.…”
