Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock
A series of tests was conducted in a masonry chimney and a masonry fireplace both constructed to current national standards in order to evaluate the effectiveness of recent changes to the building code requirements for residential masonry construction.

Exergy Analysis of Heat Pumps

January 1, 1987
Author(s)
T. L. Tsaros, R. A. Gaggioli, Piotr A. Domanski
The HPSIM computer program for modeling heat pumps (Domanski and Didion 1983) has been augmented to include exergy analysis. Exergy transports between the components, to the loads, and to the environment are evaluated. The exergy consumptions in each

Buoyancy Driven Flow as the Forcing Function of Smoke Transport Models.

May 1, 1986
Author(s)
Walter W. Jones, X E. Bodart
Flow at vents is the major driving force in smoke transport models. The precision with which we can calculate these flows determines to a great extent how accurately we can model buoyant flow and the inherent speed of the models. This report describes some

Introduction to Fire Hazard Modeling.

March 1, 1986
Author(s)
Richard W. Bukowski
An overview of the development and current capabilities of predictive methods for fire hazard analysis is provided. This includes a range of methods from simple, algebraic equations to complex, computer simulation models. In each case the form, major
