Experimental Fire Performance Data for Multi-Pane Low-Energy Windows

Hjalte Bengtsson published a dataset containing results from eight furnace tests conducted in November 2024. The study investigates the post-flashover fire performance of two- and three-layered low-energy glazing under two different heating curves. Two smaller windows were also tested to examine the effects of window size.

Use Cases

• Compare fire resistance between two- and three-layered glazing based on the furnace test results
• Analyze the impact of different fire development curves on window failure based on the two heating regimes used
• Evaluate the effect of window size on fire performance based on the tests of smaller windows

Strengths

• Dataset includes results from eight distinct experimental furnace tests
• Tests were conducted under controlled conditions using two different heating curves
• Data is licensed under CC-BY-4.0, allowing for open reuse

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download
