Abstract

A release rate model for predicting the course of developing fires in a compart ment has been in use for several years. Application of the model was limited to those conditions when oxygen concentrations did not limit the rate of heat generation. This work extends the model to include the post-flashover and ven tilation controlled period of a fire.
