Abstrakt: There is a need for fire modeling tools capable of rapid simulation of fire growth and smoke spread in multiple compartments with complex ventilation. Currently available tools are not capable of simulation of complex ventilation arrangements in a timely manner. To address this problem, a new fire model called Fire and Smoke SIMulator (FSSIM) has been developed. FSSIM is a network model whose core thermal hydraulic routines are based on MELCOR. FSSIM capabilities include remote ignition, multilayer heat conduction, radiation streaming, arbitrarily complex HVAC systems, detection, suppression, oxygen-limited combustion, and simple control systems.
