The heat release parameter (HRP) is a dimensionless quantity used in the study of combustion and fire dynamics to evaluate the potential for fire spread and the intensity of a fire. It is defined as the ratio of the energy released during a fire per unit area of the burning material to the mass or volume of that material. Essentially, it helps to quantify how much energy is being released from a fire relative to the amount of combustible material available.
