Glass breaking in compartment fires is an important practical problem since a window acts as wall before and vent after breaking. If sufficient excess pyrolyzates have accumulated the hot layer, this sudden geometric change can lead to back draft flashover. As Emmons explained at first Symposium, windows break due thermal stress from differential heating of central portion shaded edge. The focus paper on quantifying connection between fire glass temperature predict time. tb. Techniques are...
