It has been found in the experiments that, with increase of the sloped roof vent area, the maximum mass burning rate decreases gradually and the total combustion duration increases, in the condition of equal weight of total fuel in each test. This phenomenon demonstrates that the influence of the weakening effect owing to more energy loss via the roof vent is stronger than the strengthening effect due to combustion acceleration by enlarging the roof vent area, in the current experimental configuration. Moreover, the relationships between the average gas temperature rise and the roof vent area, as well as between the average gas temperature rise and the ratio of the roof vent area to total vent area, in the steady fire stage are summarized and quantified. In addition, it is found that, even when the roof vent area reaches 6.7 % of the floor area, the smoke layer height descends quickly, which poses a challenge to human evacuation. 6 Fire Technology 50 ARTICULO Li, Jian 47329 Chen, Changkun 55564 Shen, Bingyin 55565 189685 189685 0 0 0 0 257504 BAAB BAAB 2026-03-06 200061925 0 200061925 2026-03-06 00:19:50 2026-03-06 ARTICULO
