Abstract
This report is the 'Software User's Guide' for FIREX N2.0 which is a menu driven program system for the prediction of fire hazard for offshore and onshore applications. A simple method for the prediction of explosion hazard in the open is also included in this program system. This user's guide describes in detail the installation procedure of the program as well as all input menus, data output lists and graphic outputs appearing on the screen when executing the program. It is recommended to read this user's guide carefully before carrying out fire consequence calculations with FIREX N2.0. This applied especially to the part of the user's guide dealing with the actual fire scenario of which the fire hazard is to be predicted.
