Methods for Estimating the Dispersion of Toxic Combustion Products from Large Fires

. Chemical Engineering Research and Design (Transactions of the IChemE, Part A), 67 (A4): 348--352 (July 1989)

Abstract

Two models for the prediction of toxic concentrations of substances released into the open air durind a fire are presented. One may be applied to a pool of burning liquid in the open air, and the other to a fire in a building such as a warehouse. Both models include simplifying assumptions and the predictions require testing against experimental data. Until the validation is completed, the results of the models cannot be used with full confidence.
