  1. 1. Numerical experiments - a research method in fire science

    Author : Nils Johansson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; experimental uncertainty; accuracy; fire dynamics; compartment fires; models; experiments; Numerical experiments;

    Abstract : Fires are complex and it is hard to derive relationships from theory in fire science. Full-scale and small-scale experiments have been used with great success in order to increase the understanding of fire chemistry and fire dynamics. But, there are shortcomings and difficulties with conducting these traditional fire experiments. READ MORE

  2. 2. Compartment Fire Temperature Calculations and Measurements

    Author : Alexandra Byström; Ulf Wickström; Sven Thelandersson; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; compartment fire temperature; heat transfer; FEM; calculation of temperature; temperature measurement; fire scenario; validation; flashover; Stålbyggnad; Steel Structures;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to heat transfer and fire dynamics in enclosures. It consists of a main part which summarizes and discusses the theory of heat transfer, conservation of energy, fire dynamics and specific fire scenarios that have been studied. READ MORE

  3. 3. Fire Dynamics in Multi-Room Compartment Fires

    Author : Nils Johansson; Avdelningen för Brandteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fire safety engineering; fire dynamics; multi-room compartment; numerical experiment; small-scale experiment; hot-gas-layer temperature; hot-gas-layer interface height; reproducibility;

    Abstract : Fire dynamics in multi-room compartments are explored in this thesis and new methods to study conditions in rooms adjacent to the room of fire origin are presented. Simple and transparent engineering methods can create good possibilities for understanding different complex phenomena present in fire science. READ MORE
