A brief review of LERC (Limiting Energy Release Criteria) is presented. Application of LERC to JSC/Boeing ignition source full-scale tests and to JSC/Dacfir math-model validation tests is outlined. It is concluded that: (1) a complete LERC application to the JSC/Boeing tests verifies the fuel load criterion as the limiting constraint; (2) the variability of magnitude and form of the results of repeated tests with and without small variations in parameters emphasizes the significance of the local flow, species concentration, and heat transfer distribution; and (3) weight loss measurements of recent JSC tests show consistent results with prior methods, fuel load constrained.
