Post-frontal Combustion Heat Modeling in DEVS-fire for Coupled Atmosphere-fire Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modeling the heat released from a burning wildfire is essential to support coupled atmosphere-fire simulation. This paper presents post-frontal combustion heat modeling in the wildfire spread model of DEVS-FIRE. The developed heat model integrates features from both the BURNUP model and the heat model of WRF-Fire to compute the heat flux of wildfire. To model fuel consumption, it uses the BURNUP model to calculate the burning time and employs an exponentially decreasing fuel mass loss curve to derive the fuel consumption rate. Experiment results are presented and compared with those from the heat model of WRF-Fire. Using the developed heat model, a coupled atmosphere-fire simulation based on DEVS-FIRE and the ARPS atmospheric model is run to demonstrate the impact of the mutual interaction between wildfire and weather on wildfire spread.

Coupled fire–atmosphere modeling of wildland fire spread using DEVS-FIRE and ARPS
This article introduces a new wildland fire spread prediction system consisting of the raster-based Discrete Event System Specification Fire model (DEVS-FIRE) and the Advanced Regional Prediction System atmospheric model (ARPS). Fire–atmosphere feedbacks are represented by transferring heat from DEVS-FIRE to ARPS as an externally forced set of surface fluxes and mapping the resulting changes in...

In this dissertation, we develop the multiple-source shortest path algorithms and examine their application importance in real world problems, such as wildfire modeling. The theoretical basis and its implementation in the Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) model coupled with the fire spread code SFIRE (WRF-SFIRE model) are described. We present a data assimilation method that gives the fire spr...

In this research a fire scenario was simulated in one of the stations of the line 7 of Tehran's subway system. The Line 7 is under construction and the ventilation system is under design. Fire was set for a stopping metro train at the platform of the station. A 160 meter length eight-car metro train with the forth wagon on the fire was studied. The heat release rate is based on a quadratic f...
