Smoke Layer Stratification

Smoke Layer Stratification is a physical phenomenon in fire dynamics wherein buoyant smoke gases form a distinct, horizontally layered zone beneath the ceiling of an enclosure due to thermal buoyancy and density differences with ambient air, stabilized by balanced flow rates and heat release conditions.
