Abstract: Abstract A liquid pyrolysis model was implemented into Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) to predict burning fluxes in multicomponent pool fires. The model was validated against steady-state pool fire data for ethanol-water, ethanol-isopropanol, and ethanol-hexane mixtures.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.quaint.2016.06.028
Abstract: In tropical ecosystems, climate and human impact are generally considered the main determinants of savanna fire distribution, but their relative roles in controlling fire dynamics over the long-term are difficult to assess, due to scarcity… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/23744731.2016.1249234
Abstract: Jet fan ventilators are often applied for smoke control and support for pollutant dispersal in large enclosures, especially in tunnels and car parks. In the design phase, computational fluid dynamics techniques are most often used… read more here.
