does anyone have any knowledge on fire modelling?
Fire Modelling: An Overview of Knowledge and Techniques
Click For Summary
Discussion Overview
The discussion revolves around fire modelling, specifically focusing on introductory knowledge and techniques related to different types of fire configurations, such as pool fire modelling. Participants express interest in configuration factors and radiation exchange in fire scenarios.
Discussion Character
- Exploratory, Technical explanation, Conceptual clarification
Main Points Raised
- One participant inquires about general knowledge on fire modelling.
- Another participant seeks clarification on what specific aspects of fire modelling are of interest.
- A participant mentions being familiar with pool fire modelling and describes its shape as a sheared or tilted cylinder, expressing difficulty with the configuration factor.
- Another participant offers their experience with configuration factors for various flames and target structures, asking if there is a specific solution or detail the original poster is looking for.
Areas of Agreement / Disagreement
The discussion does not appear to have a consensus, as participants express varying levels of familiarity and specific interests in different aspects of fire modelling.
Contextual Notes
Participants have not yet defined key terms such as "configuration factor" or "pool fire modelling," which may lead to different interpretations. The discussion lacks detailed mathematical or technical specifications that could clarify the points raised.

I've completely missed this thread ... sorry 
!
If this has any relevance anymore, yeah, have worked with CFs for different types of flames & target structures for radiation exchange, are you looking for a particular solution or interested in some specific detail of the approach?
