Presents the types of analyses that can be used to examine large-scale room fire test data to prepare the data for comparison with zone-based fire models. The base of experimental data ranges in complexity from one room tests with individual furniture items to a series of tests conducted in a multiple story hotel equipped with a zoned smoke control system. Graphs and diagrams.

This paper describes a methodology to produce a composite heat release rate curve for multiple burning items using the WPI/FIRE CODE fire model. The growing fire algorithm is manipulated by changing the six fire parameters: fire spread parameter, initial burning radius, maximum burning radius, burnout parameter, heat of vaporization and fraction of heat released. This methodology accounts for the radiative enhancement of the heat release rate curves which will substantially modify the burning characteristics of multiple objects burning in close proximity to one another. The result of the simulation process is a table of values which will reproduce the actual heat release rate and mass loss rate curves generated in the furniture calorimeter.

This book focuses on topics in the entire spectrum of fire safety science, targeting research in fires, explosions, combustion science, heat transfer, fluid dynamics, risk analysis, structural engineering, and other subjects. The book contributes to a gain in advanced scientific knowledge and presents or advances new ideas in all topics in fire safety science. Two decades ago, the 1st Asia-Oceania Symposium on Fire Science and Technology was held in Hefei, China. Since then, the Asia-Oceania Symposia have grown in size and quality. This book, reflecting that growth, helps readers to understand fire safety technology, design, and methodology in diverse areas including historical buildings, photovoltaic panels, batteries, and electric vehicles.
A Gallery of Combustion and Fire

A Gallery of Combustion and Fire is the first book to provide a graphical perspective of the extremely visual phenomenon of combustion in full color. It is designed primarily to be used in parallel with, and supplement existing combustion textbooks that are usually in black and white, making it a challenge to visualize such a graphic phenomenon. Each image includes a description of how it was generated, which is detailed enough for the expert but simple enough for the novice. Processes range from small scale academic flames up to full scale industrial flames under a wide range of conditions such as low and normal gravity, atmospheric to high pressures, actual and simulated flames, and controlled and uncontrolled flames. Containing over 500 color images, with over 230 contributors from over 75 organizations, this volume is a valuable asset for experts and novices alike.
