Abstract
Since serious fire occurred frequently in recent years, fire safety of high-rise building hasattracted extensive attention. A National Basic Research Program (973 program) of China has been setup by Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) of China in 2012 to meet the research requirementsof fire safety in high-rise buildings. This paper reviews the current state of art of research onfire dynamics of high-rise buildings, including the up-to-date progress of this project. Thefollowing three subjects on fire dynamics of high-rise buildings are addressed in this review: theejected flame and fire plumebehavior over facade out ofthe compartment window, the flame spread behavior over facade thermal insulation materials, and the buoyancy-driven smoke transportationcharacteristicsalong long vertical channels in high-rise buildings. Prospective future works are discussed andsummarized.
