A fire test using a 2ft. by 2ft. tank has been developed for assessing the potential extinguishing effectiveness of foam. The test developed represents conditions often encountered in the extinguishment by foam of a flammable liquid fire. The adjustable foam generator permits study of the foam parameters on extinguishing effectiveness. The radiometer used for determining control time reduces inconsistencies resulting from visual observation and observer's judgement. The use of a small tank permits tests to be conducted indoors on a year-round basis and relatively inexpensively. The 2ft. by 2ft. test appears to be as adequate as a 10ft. by 10ft. test as a means for assessing the effectiveness of foam. The reproductibility of results was slig...
