Synopsis

Excerpt from Comparison of the Fire Model Predictions With Experiments Conducted in a Hangar With a 15 Meter Ceiling<br/><br/>Spaces with high ceilings, such as warehouses, atriums, clean rooms, and aircraft hangars, represent some of the most difficult fire protection challenges since they can contain large quantities of fuel, house valuable equipment or airplanes, have unique geometries, and present special life safety problems. The fire protection problem at heights in excess of 10 m is made more difficult by the lack of verification studies for computer fire models. Computer fire models could be used by fire protection engineers to aid in the fire detection design of the facility. Without appropriate verification studies, the accuracy of computer model predictions is uncertain and the application of these models to fire problems becomes questionable.
