报告摘要:With the rapid development of economics in the Far East, many big
construction projects were found. The new designs have difficulties to
comply with the fire codes. Performance-based design (PBD) was then applied
to determine fire safety provisions, particularly for underground subway
stations in urban areas without much space.
Because of resources limitation, free software of Computational Fluid
Dynamics (CFD) was applied in hazard assessment in many construction
projects. No full-scale burning tests were carried out to justify the CFD
predicted results. Authorities having jurisdictions (AHJ) are now more
knowledgeable in fire science and engineering. CFD Results are starting to
be challenged.
Common mistakes made in PBD projects with railway and subway systems based
on CFD as pointed out by different parties including fire research workers,
users, fire officers and journal paper reviewers will be discussed in this
presentation.
