- Abstract
- [ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH] 3-D computer graphics show air flow behavior in an air conditioned room. Fires were started in 5 locations in a room containing a blower and an exhaust vent. In fires positioned near the blower or the exhaust vent, the smoke was diffused or escaped through the exhaust vent and did not reach the ceiling, possibly delaying fire detection.
