Combustion of a Spherical Diffusion Flame in a Radiative Field.

November 6, 1994
Author(s)
Z Zhang, O A. Ezekoye
One methodology for modeling fire induced flow fields is based upon a Lagrangian view of the fire. Large scale processes are modeled using a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) method and are then appropriately coupled to a subgird scale model of the small scale

Heat Release Mechanisms in Inhibited Laminar Counterflow Flames (Conference)

November 6, 1994
Author(s)
Ki Y. Lee, Don J. Cha, I K. Puri, Anthony Hamins
Both the chemical kinetic and thermal channels of inhibition must be simultaneously characterized in order to understand the effectiveness of chemical agents on flame stability. However, due to the participation of inhibitors in flame chemistry, it is

Simulating the Effect of Flat Beamed Ceiling on Detector and Sprinkler Response

November 6, 1994
Author(s)
Glenn P. Forney, Richard W. Bukowski, William D. Davis
This paper documents a portion of the work performed during the first year of the International Fire Detection Research Project sponsored by the National Fire Protection Research Foundation (NFPRF). The first task was to confirm that fire sensor response

A General Motion Model and Spatio-Temporal Filters for Computing Optical Flow

November 1, 1994
Author(s)
H Liu, Tsai H. Hong, Martin Herman, Rama Chellappa
Traditional optical flow algorithms assume local image translational motion and apply simple image filtering. Recent studies have taken two separate approaches toward improving the accuracy of computed flow: the application of spatio-temporal filtering

Algorithm to Describe the Spread of a Wall Fire Under a Ceiling

November 1, 1994
Author(s)
Henri E. Mitler
After some discussion of wall fires, the effects that a ceiling has on a wall fire are analyzed and discussed qualitatively. There are two kinds of effects: first, when the upper sill of the ventilating opening lies below the ceiling (as is usual), a layer
