Oxygen Volume Fraction in a Staircase Fire

The goal of the FDS simulation presented in this page is to evaluate the oxygen volume fraction over time in a Staircase fire. 1. Simulation summary The specific simulation inputs that determine the oxygen volume fraction are the following: Soot yield = 0,03 kg/kg Carbon monoxide yield = 0,07 kg/kg Heat Release rate = 120 […]

Multiple Meshes

In this Fire Dynamics Simulator tutorial, you are going to learn how to properly define multiple meshes in the same FDS simulation. Mesh Basics All FDS calculations are performed within a domain that is made up of parallelepipedal volumes called meshes. Each mesh is divided into rectangular cells, the number of which depends on the […]
