This book provides a consistent scientific background to
engineering calculation methods applicable to analyses of materials
reaction-to-fire, as well as fire resistance of structures. Several
new and unique formulas and diagrams which facilitate calculations
are presented. It focuses on problems involving high temperature
conditions and, in particular, defines boundary conditions in a
suitable way for calculations. A large portion of the book is
devoted to boundary conditions and measurements of thermal exposure
by radiation and convection. The concepts and theories of adiabatic
surface temperature and measurements of temperature with plate
thermometers are thoroughly explained.Also presented is a renewed
method for modeling compartment fires, with the resulting simple
and accurate prediction tools for both pre- and post-flashover
fires. The final chapters deal with temperature calculations in
steel, concrete and timber structures exposed to standard
time-temperature fire curves. Useful temperature calculation tools
are included, and several examples demonstrate how the finite
element code TASEF can be used to calculate temperature in various
configurations. Temperature Calculation in Fire Safety Engineering
is intended for researchers, students, teachers, and consultants in
fire safety engineering. It is also suitable for others interested
in analyzing and understanding fire, fire dynamics, and temperature
development. Review questions and exercises are provided for
instructor use.
