BS ISO 13506-2:2017 provides technical details for calculating predicted burn injury to human skin when its
surface is subject to a varying heat flux, such as may occur due to energy transmitted through and by a
garment or protective clothing ensemble exposed to flames. A series of test cases are provided against
which the burn injury prediction calculation method is verified. It also contains requirements for the
in situ calibration of the thermal energy sensor - skin injury prediction system for the range of heat
fluxes that occur under garments.The skin burn injury calculation methods as presented in this test method do not include terms for
handling short wavelength radiation that may penetrate the skin. The latter include arc flashes, some
types of fire exposures with liquid or solid fuels, and nuclear sources.Cross References:ISO 13506-1:2017ISO/TR 11610:2004 Ed 1ISO 5725 (all parts)ISO 13506:2008ASTM F1930 - 15EN 469:2005ISO 11612:2015NFPA 2112:2012ISO 11999-3:2015All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
