Product Details
This hardback textbook replaces the 1992 book "Design of Smoke Management Systems." From zoned smoke control to pressurized stairwells, it is an exhaustive treatment of smoke management. Recent advancements discussed in the book include heat release rate, toxicity of smoke, natural atrium venting, plugholing, smoke stratification, smoke detection and tenability systems. Methods of analysis include equations, network flow models, zone fire models, scale modeling and hazard analysis. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is also addressed. The book includes a CD containing five different computer programs, and provides discussion of the CD and several sample calculations. Co-published with SFPE. ASHRAE Research Project 1122. 379 pp.
