Report of Test on Experimental Conditions and Preliminary Results for the International Fire Model Benchmarking And Validation Exercise #3

June 1, 2003
Author(s)
Anthony P. Hamins, Alexander Maranghides, Erik L. Johnsson, Michelle K. Donnelly, Jiann C. Yang, George W. Mulholland
As part of its Fire Risk Research Program, the NRC (Nuclear regulatory Commission) and NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) are participating in an International Collaborative Fire Model Project (ICFMP) to assess and validate fire computer

Suppression Limits of Low Strain Rate Non-Premixed Methane Flames

May 1, 2003
Author(s)
Matthew F. Bundy, Anthony P. Hamins, Ki Y. Lee
The suppression of low strain rate non-premixed flames was investigated experimentally in a counterflow configuration for laminar flames with minimal conductive heat losses. This was accomplished by varying the velocity ratio of fuel to oxidizer to adjust

Community-Scale Fire Spread

July 1, 2002
Author(s)
Ronald G. Rehm, Anthony P. Hamins, Howard R. Baum, Kevin B. McGrattan, D D. Evans
This paper addresses community-scale fires, which have also been called urban/wildland interface or intermix fires. These fires arise when wildlandfires invade the built environment and attack structures as well as wildland fuels. The prediction of the

Fire Safety Research at NIST

July 1, 2002
Author(s)
Anthony P. Hamins
The Fire Research Division is one of four Divisions in the Building and Fire Research Laboratory (BFRL) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The Division is composed of approximately 58 full time employees, 25 guest scientists and

Determination of Planck Mean Absorption Coefficients for HBr, HCl, and HF

February 1, 2002
Author(s)
Stephen P. Fuss, Anthony P. Hamins
The Planck mean absorption coefficient has been calculated for HBr HCl, and HF over a temperature range from 300 K-2300 K using data from the 1996 edition of the HITRAN molecular database. Plots of ap versus temperature showed monotonically decreasing

Investigation of Velocity Boundary Conditions in Counterflow Flames

January 1, 2002
Author(s)
W C. Park, Anthony Hamins
The effects of velocity boundary conditions on the structure of methane-air nonpremixed counterflow flames were investigated by two-dimensional numerical simulation. Two low global strain rates, 12 s-1 and 20 s-1, were considered for comparison with

Characterization of Particulate From Fires Burning Silicone Fluids

December 1, 2001
Author(s)
Y Sivathanu, Anthony P. Hamins, George W. Mulholland, Takashi Kashiwagi, R Buch
The optical properties of particulate emitted from fires burning two distinct polydimethylsiloxane fluids (D4 and M2 or MM, where D=(CH3)2SiO and M=(CH3)3SiO2) were obtained using a transmission cell-reciprocal nephelometer in conjunction with gravimetric

Fire Dynamics Simulator (Version 2) -- Technical Reference Guide

November 1, 2001
Author(s)
Kevin B. McGrattan, Howard R. Baum, Ronald G. Rehm, Anthony P. Hamins, Glenn P. Forney, J E. Floyd, Simo A. Hostikka
Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelof fire-driven fluid flow. The equations described in this document are a form of the Navier-Stokes equations appropriate for low-speed, thermally-driven flow with an emphasis on
