- Abstract
- This thesis documents the first steps in upgrading WPI/Fire 2.1c to WPI/Fire 3.0-A Multiroom Model. At this time a new set of routines that calculate vent mass fluxes for multiple rooms has been implemented. The results compare very well with WPI/Fire 2.1c. Future work will include implementing subroutines for door jets and multiple room species calculations.
