Abstract

Field modeling that incorporates increasingly complex representations of the physical and chemical processes for compartment fires warrants a detailed evaluation. Detailed quantitative comparisons of our predicted velocity and temperature fields against established the computed results of Lewis, Moss, and Rubini and the experimental data of Steckler, Quintiere, and Rinkinen of a single compartment fire are in good agreement. The prospect of using a flamelet-based combustion model is encouraging. Here, more detailed chemistry can be incorporated, especially that used to predict toxic CO concentrations. This, together with the discrete ordinates radiation method, offers potential in building fire prediction.
