  1. 6. The impact of horizontal projections on external fire spread - A numerical comparative study

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Markus Nilsson; [2016]
    Keywords : fönsterbröstning; bröstning; balkongplatta; balkong; horisontell projektion; SP Fire 105; numerical study; comparative analysis; validation study; adiabatic surface temperature; vertical fire spread; external fire spread; FDS 6.2.0; FDS; balcony; spandrel; horizontal projection; extern brandspridning; vertikal brandspridning; adiabatisk yttemperatur; valideringsstudie; jämförande analys; numerisk studie; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The aim of the report was to investigate and compare the effect of horizontal projections along with different spandrel heights between the unprotected openings in the building facade. The effect was more specifically the effect on the risk level in regards to the external vertical fire spread. READ MORE

  3. 7. Incorporating Flame Spread and Fire Growth Algorithms into a Computational Zone Model

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik; Lunds universitet/Brandingenjörsprogrammet; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Daniel Gojkovic; Hhultquist Hultquist; [1999]
    Keywords : flame spread; Zone model; WPI Fire Code; fire growth; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : A flame-spread model is incorporated into a zone model, the WPI/Fire Code. The external heat flux’s influence on the model is discussed and a tolerable value is calculated. The input parameters to the flame-spread algorithm are exposed to a simple sensitivity analysis. The algorithm is compared with two scenarios, Model A and Model B. READ MORE

  4. 8. External Fire Spread to Adjoining Buildings

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik; Lunds universitet/Brandingenjörsprogrammet; Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Riskhantering och Samhällssäkerhet

    Author : Emil Carlsson; [1999]
    Keywords : ignition; flame projection; external fire spread; Building Code; enclosing rectangle; notional radiator; radiation; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This report discusses different parameters that affect external fire spread between buildings. A comparison between different methods and regulations of determining safe separation distances between buildings is made. READ MORE
