Review of Testing Methods for Hydraulic Fluid Flammability 932436
Although considerable research has been performed to quantitatively compare the relative fire-resistance afforded by different hydraulic fluids in various industrial applications, new standards reflecting these developments is still incomplete. The objective of this paper is to provide an overview of the classical tests that have, and are currently, used to quantify relative fire safety of fluids. This will be complemented by a discussion of recent test developments that could be incorporated into future standards.
