Design Parameters for Stack-Mounted Light Extinction Measurement Devices

摘要

This paper discusses existing methods of light extinction measurement,211u001etheoretical aspects of light extinction, and measurement device features that are 211u001enecessary for the accurate and precise measurement of extinction. The topics are 211u001ediscussed in the context of smoke mass concentration and smoke yield 211u001edetermination for fire experiments conducted in the furniture calorimeter at the 211u001eNIST Large Fire Research Facility and in other similar fire research facilities.
