Simulations of upward flame spread by coupling a pyrolysis model with a cfd calculation
TL;DR: In this article, two types of flame spread (upward and downward) demonstrate the possibilities of this approach and the coupling between the two phases works fine, providing a mechanism of simulating flame spread with two different codes.
Study of hydrogen non-premixed auto-ignition in mixture fraction space using detailed mechanisms
TL;DR: In this paper, numerical simulations of auto-ignition of hydrogen, diluted with nitrogen, in a co-flow of heated air, with conditions as in the experiment of Markides and Mastorakos, were performed with the Conditional Moment Closure model.
Journal ArticleDOI
Special issue fire safety journal on car park fire safety-preface
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present worldwide state-of-the-art scientific research findings for a number of different aspects concerning fire and explosion safety in underground car parks, using the results of this project as starting point.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Application of BEM and analysis of the role of radiation effects in labscale turbulent diffusion flames.

TL;DR: In this article, a multi-sensor smoke and flame detector is proposed which combines the multimodal information of low-cost visual and thermal infrared detection results, and the combined detector yields more accurate results, with fewer false alarms, than either detector alone.
