Heat release rate of a subway car on fire in a shrink-scale model Abstract: Heat release rate in a shrink-scale model of a subway car on fire is measured for various aspects of an ignition source and simulated materials differing in material by using shrink scale model. The time is required to reach the value‚ although the maximum Heat Release Rate value is independent of the position of the ignition source. The best method for determining the heat release rate is the maximum Heat Release Rate
