Fluid Mechanics Aspects of Fire and Smoke Dynamics in EnclosuresAuthor(s): Bart Merci, Tarek Beji\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: CRC Press\nISBN-13: 9781032068879, 978-1032068879\nSynopsis\nThis book provides essential understanding of flows in fire and smoke dynamics in enclosures, covering combustion, heat transfer and fire suppression in more detail than other introductory books. It moves from the basic equations for turbulent flows with combustion, through a discussion of the structure of flames, to fire and smoke plumes and their interaction with enclosure boundaries. This is then applied to fire dynamics and smoke and heat control in enclosures. \n\nThis new edition provides considerably more on the fluid mechanics of the effect of water, and on fire dynamics modelling using Computational Fluid Dynamics.\n\nPresents worked examples taken from practical, everyday fire-related problems\nCovers a broad range of topics, from the bas.
