摘要：

A comparison between the downward flame spread rate for thermally thin samples with one or two inhibited edges is done in multiple situations. The effects of atmospheric composition as well as the width and thickness of a cellulosic-type fuel are tested experimentally. We have found that the normal velocity to the inclined flame front in a side-edge burning is very similar to the downward flame front speed when the sample is inhibited by both edges. Also, the effect of locating a sidewall close to the free edge of the sample is investigated. All these results may be important in order to validate or refute possible models of downward flame spread that take into account side effects.
