PROPOSED BURNTHROUGH TEST
METHOD CALIBRATION GUIDELINES
Objective of Testing:
• Establish Similar Calibration Procedure
• Produce Similar Exposure From Burner
• Achieve Similar Test Results
Factors That Can Influence Calibration
• Air Intake Velocity
• Air Intake Temperature
• Fuel Flowrate
• Fuel Temperature
• Instrumentation (type/size of thermocouple, calorimeter type)
• Other Adjustments (position of igniters, static disc, tabs)
• Fuel Type (Jet A, Diesel, Fuel Oil)
• Environmental Conditions (relative humidity, barometric pressure)

Latest Calibration Procedure
Temperature: (1850oF +/- 100oF)
Adjust Fuel Flowrate to 6.0 gal/hr
Adjust Burner Intake Air Velocity to 2200 ft/min
Heat Flux: (15.2 Btu/ft2 sec +/- 0.8 Btu/ft2 sec)
•After 2-minute warm-up, swing burner into position, •allow 1 minute stabilization, •take reading for 30 seconds (once per second) and average, •swing burner away from flame
