Fire safety engineering

design fire whose heat release rate grows with the square of time, with slow, medium, fast and ultrafast growth constants.

In fire safety engineering, t-squared fire refers to design fire whose heat release rate grows with the square of time, with slow, medium, fast and ultrafast growth constants. This meaning comes from Heskestad (1979) in Symposium (International) on Combustion.[1]
