- Abstract
- The work reported here is a critical evaluation of the room fire model's performance using several full scale room fire experiments conducted at the National Bureau of Standards and Factory Mutual Research Corporation. The objective of this model validation effort was to determine under which conditions the different model components perform adeuqately, under which conditions they do not perform adequately, and what the major limitations are on the models performance.
