MODEL OF CFAST, AS AN AGENT FOR DETERMINING OF FIRE HAZARDS LIMIT VALUES

Abstract

CFAST program reflects the results of simulations of the propagation of fire hazards on a predetermined size of the room. CFAST program is a good tool for engineers because it allows to determine the time for which the hazards of fire reach the limit values and self-rescuing is not possible without additional means of protection. If technical solutions have not been arranged yet the simulation allows to predict a fire hazard. It also allows to determine the effectiveness of such technical solutions on the basis of fire risks calculation.
