Issues in Evaluation of Complex Fire Models

January 1, 1998
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, Glenn P. Forney, M. M. Kostreva
Several methods of evaluation of the predictive capability have been applied to fire models, but with limited utility. These range from explicit evaluation of the equations used in simple models such as ASET to pointwise evaluation of complex models from

Data Structures for the Fire Data Management System, FDMS 2.0 (NISTIR 6088)

November 1, 1997
Author(s)
Rebecca W. Portier, Richard Peacock, Paul A. Reneke
Fire Data Management System, FDMS, is a design for a computer database to store and retrieve fire test results obtained from bench-scale and real-scale tests as well as fire simulation programs. By storing available fire test values in a common format

Evaluation of Complex Fire Models (NISTIR 6030)

June 1, 1997
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Paul A. Reneke, Walter W. Jones
Several methods for studying predictive capability and sensitivity have been applied to fire models, but with limited utility. These range from explicit evaluation of the equations used in simple models such as ASET to evaluation of complex models from

New Concepts for Fire Protection of Passenger Rail Transportation Vehicles

July 13, 1994
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Richard W. Bukowski, Walter W. Jones, Paul A. Reneke
Recent advances in guided ground transportation, fire test methods, and hazard analysis necessitate re-examination of requirements for fire safety. Several studies have indicated nearly random ability of current tests to predict actual fire behavior. A

An Update Guide for HAZARD I Version 1.2

May 1, 1994
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Walter W. Jones, Glenn P. Forney, Paul A. Reneke, Richard W. Bukowski, J H. Klote
A method for quantifying the hazards to occupants of buildings from fires, and the relative contribution of specific products (e.g., furniture, wire insulation) to those hazards is presented. This method,called HAZARD I, combines expert judgment and

Fire Safety of Passenger Trains: A Review of Current Approaches and of New Concepts (TN 1406)

January 1, 1994
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Richard W. Bukowski, Walter W. Jones, Paul A. Reneke, Vyto Babrauskas, James E. Brown
Recent advances in passenger guided transportation, fire test methods, and hazard analysis necessitate re-examination of requirements for fire safety. Several studies have indicated nearly random ability of current tests to predict actual fire behavior

New Concepts for Fire Protection of Passenger Rail Transportation Vehicles

September 23, 1993
Author(s)

Recent advances in guided ground transportation, fire test methods, and hazard analysis necessitate re-examination of requirements for fire safety. Several studies have indicated nearly random ability of current tests to predict actual fire behavior. A

CFAST: The Consolidated Model of Fire Growth and Smoke Transport.

February 1, 1993
Author(s)
Richard D. Peacock, Glenn P. Forney, Paul A. Reneke, Walter W. Jones, R W. Portier
CFAST is a zone model capable of predicting the environment in a multi-compartment structure subjected to a fire. It calculates the time evolving distribution of smoke and fire gases and the temperature throughout a building during a user-specified fire
