The role of the product of the thermal properties of thermal conductivity and thermal capacity per unit volume in fire growth is explored in relation to a simple model of a room fire. The calculated differences between flashover times for two different lining materials are plausible; the main conclusion is to show that the flashover time depends on K ρ C in a weaker relationship than simple proportionality.
