Based on the results of author’s research it was stated that significant differences between heat release rates measured according to ISO 5660-1 and FTP Code Part 5 (Res. A. 653 (16)) are not caused by measurement uncertainties. A basic factor determining the lack of correlation is treating the heat release rate in the category of static measurements in the normalized measurement methods. Taking into account dynamic parameters of the test station allowed the coincidence rate (reproducibility and correlation) of the results of heat release rates measured using different methods to be improved, without changing test stations and procedures. Author’s research performed on 42 materials has revealed that the relative dynamic errors of the heat release rate measurements are significant (2%÷120%). The average value of these changes for the tested group of materials was equal to 39%.
