Fire behavior and smoke spread are influenced by various factors, including the amount condition of combustible material, ventilation openings, ceiling height. A high material in auditorium poses a significant fire hazard, hence, efforts need to be made minimize risk. One approach is use Computational Fluid Dynamic software, such as Dynamics Simulator (FDS), model combustion. In this research, ...

Pet-coke (petroleum coke) is identified as a carbon-rich and black-colored solid. Despite the environmental risks posed by exploitation of pet-coke, it mostly applied boiling combusting fuel in power generation, cement production plants. It considered promising replacement for coal plants because its higher heating value, carbon content, low ash. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model metha...

This paper addresses the development of a practical physics-based model for fires in the wildland-urban intermix. These fires arise when wildland burning invades the built environment. Fire models for ignition and spread must consider individual fuel elements of both vegetation and structures in order to assess fire risk of developed properties. Successful prediction of wildland fire spread has...

This paper presents a comprehensive set of numerical simulations for the characterization water mist spray emerging from nozzle positioned at 2.2 m floor level and operating pressure 1.0 MPa. The droplet volume-median diameter is about 90 μm half-angle around 42°. shape visualized using laser sheet flux density distribution on ground measured with ‘bucket’ test. An initial study Fire Dynamics S...

Abstract There is a persistent risk of large-scale fire conflagrations in informal settlements, which can threaten hundreds people simultaneously. Although the literature implies that wind conditions have significant impact on these fires, little known about how affect dynamics and spread flames settlements. In order to comprehend (speed direction) time flashover severity settlement dwellings w...

A fireproof insulation board can be recycled, and the raw materials used in its production are very environmentally friendly, non-toxic non-hazardous, bring no harm to human body surrounding environment. One practical application of is an integrated composite structural fire protection system, which a multidimensional comprehensive system proposed for combined construction buildings with differ...

Abstract The use of numerical methods in fire safety investigations for civil buildings and nuclear facilities has received enormous attention recent years. To evaluate quantities—such as gas temperatures—in models, local metrics using single points (e.g. comparing maximum or minimum peak value two time series) are well-established. Experimental (measurement model input) uncertainty estimates c...
