- Abstract
- The concept of using pressurization to control smoke movement in building fire situations has developed considerably over the past decade and a half. This paper discusses a steady state, network, airflow computer model which can be used for smoke control system design. Assumptions, equations and numerical solution technique are presented. An example problem also is included.
