This book introduces the concepts, software, and techniques of computer-aided mathematical modeling and the software for the analysis and prediction of a variety of compartment fires. Beginning with basic compartment fire theory, the author develops a simple mathematical model that provides an approximation of the time-varying conditions created by a fires in an enclosure that may be subject to hot-layer vents. This book focuses on the deterministic computer modeling of compartment fires, and it features the first fire model to be documented, validated, verified, and evaluate according to ASTM guidelines. The text includes detailed information on the use of the QBASIC software provided on an enclosed CD-ROM. > Computer simulation proves to be a valuable tool for the analysis and prediction of compartment fires. With the proper understanding and software, fire safety professionals can use modeling tools and methods to find answers to many critical questions relating to the preventi.
