This paper intends to provide a comprehensive state-of-art review of recent progresses and
to formulate perspectives on window-ejected fire plumes, originating from under-ventilated …

Revolutionary progress in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) modeling over the last two
decades manifests itself in fire research through transition from zone to field models. This …

" Drysdale's book is by far the most comprehensive-everyone in the office has a copy... now
including me. It holds just about everything you need to know about fire science."(Review of …

The increasing complexity of technological solutions to both fire safety design issues and fire
safety regulations demand higher levels of training and continuing education for fire …

This Guide describes how to use the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) version 5. Because
new features are added periodically, check the current version number on the inside front …

An approach to field modeling of fire phenomena in enclosures is presented. The
conservation equations of mass, momentum and energy are calculated with sufficient …

Bare-bead thermocouples are widely used for measuring temperature fields in compartment
fires. It is well-known that temperature readings using such a device can be significantly …

This paper describes an experimental study of the phenomenon of buoyancy-driven
exchange (countercurrent) flow through openings in a horizontal partition. A density-driven …

This book provides essential understanding of flows in fire and smoke dynamics in
enclosures, covering combustion, heat transfer and fire suppression in more detail than …

As part of an effort to characterize the uncertainties associated with temperature
measurements in fire environments, models of bare bead, single-shielded aspirated, and …
