Background: -
The experiment is conducted with the help of a cone calorimeter as it helps realize the speed at which the actual unwanted fire would burn, and it is accepted by most scientists as the ideal instrument to make use of when calculating the oxygen consumption in any experiment.... (Nyden MR, Babrauskas V 1987) It will also help in providing a rather tentative size of the rate at which the fire would grow and spread, the time that will be available to get away, and the amount of smoke that the fire would emit....
