"Computational Fluid Dynamics and Fire Zone Model" paper argues that It is important for compartment fire behavior to be thoroughly understood, as this makes it possible for straight predictions on the extent of damage that is likely to be done on a structural element to be made.... The computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and the fire model have been cited by Wakatsuki (2001) and Beard (1997) as being the most commonly used in finding a solution to fire equations including compartments such as aircraft....

"The Effect of Wind in a compartment fire with Single Ventilation" paper seeks to understand the effect of wind in a compartment fire with single ventilation.... nbsp; In a compartment fire, the rate of burning inside the compartment is restricted by the amount of ventilation that the room is receiving.... Therefore, it is necessary to understand the behavior of compartment fire with single ventilation.... This study is also very important as wind effect on a single ventilation condition is very limited and has not been fully studied and this research can prove to be very helpful in understanding the impact of wind on a compartment fire with single ventilation....

tudies which were carried out by these authors' indicated correlation that, size and geometry contribute largest in the determination of the growth pattern of any fire on ignition.... They are in agreement that, once a fire is ignition occurs in a room, there will be production of hot gases, which will then rise due to buoyancy until when they hit the ceiling of the room and then form a hot layer underneath the ceiling.... If heat radiated from fire is increased it will result into an increase in temperature of the hot layer, which in turn increases temperature levels of the surrounding boundaries....

The paper "Manual to Compartment Oxidation Method the Outcomes of Airing Switch Mode" presents that chemical and physical phenomena are the two forms of fire divisions that are highly recognized even though they both have a high level of interaction in nature.... The description of the relationship between compartment fires and fire dynamics can be a good start to this section.... Finding a fundamental approach capable of replicating the stages of fire as an alternative to reliance on traditional methods is the best alternative (Drysdale, 1998)....
