Summary

Heat release rate is power; energy is its time integral. Based on Van Rossum (2027), §4.5.

Diagram for the article Heat release rate (Fire Safety Academy wiki, level 1 Basic).

Source basis: Van Rossum (2027), §4.4 and §4.5; Babrauskas (2002), p. 3-1
Alt text: Heat-release curve with peak power and shaded energy area over time.

Short title	Heat-release curve with peak power and shaded energy area over time.
Image title	Qualitative heat release rate in kW against time in s, rising to a marked peak power and then declining. The shaded area under the whole curve is the energy released. A separate box shows fire load as the available chemical energy in MJ, a different quantity from the current power. No numerical values are given.
