A Trial of Flashover Prediction in Compartment Fire Modeling

[摘要] References(16)Cited-By(1)A simple one zone and transient model of compartment fires was proposed to predict fire behaviors and flashover. The calculated results obtained from this model were compared with the experimental results, and further with the HARVARD CODE V with some discussion. The model presented here could make prediction of flashover time, though it's quite simple. Provided some properties of wall and burning materials, room size and opening conditions are input, fire behavior and flashover time are obtained. Calculated results were in good agreement with the experimental results obtained from the reduced scale model compartment. Based on these results, flashover time became minimum at a certain value of A√H. Similar results were obtained from calculation of HARVARD V for the full scale situation.
