in:Flux Tutorial 15 - Jet Fire Simulation

 

The next few tutorials will go over the fire simulation capabilities of in:Flux. These will be similar to the earlier tutorials for dispersion - going over single case definition, multiple case definition, transient, and custom emission (pool fires).

 

Jet fires are defined in a similar way to dispersion - by combining a single ventilation case with a single inflow. Once complete post-processing variable for incident radiation, soot mass and volume fractions as well as concentrations for fuel and products are available. 

 

This tutorial will repeat the setup of Tutorial 2 but instead run a jet fire case rather than a dispersion case. Contours will be defined using the Black Body and Kindlmann color maps. Monitors will also be defined to view carbon dioxide levels along a walkway.

 

In this tutorial you will learn how to:

• Define a jet fire simulation

• View additional equations being solved for fire cases

• Define temperature contours with various color maps

• Define isosurfaces of incident radiation values

• Define isosurface of soot volume fraction

• Define and review monitor data for spot measurements of incident radiation as well as CO2 levels
