- Abstract
- Much effort has been expended during the last ten years (Orloff et al., 1975; Ahmad and Faeth, 1979; Delichatsios, 1983) in predicting flame Spread and burning intensities in fires on vertical walls. Such wall fire models are required as components of zone models (Emmons et al., 1978) assembled for evaluating fire hazard in buildings.
