VALIDATION STUDY
Lucie Hasalová, Vojtěch Šálek, Petr Hejtmánek, Milan Jahoda
Supported by the Ministry of Interior, Safety research programme of the Czech Republic
2015 - 2020 (BV lll/1 - VS) under number VI20192022120
Fire development modelling of engineered wood.
Motivation – Fire spread modeling
Micro-scale Calibration
versus
validation?
Bench-scale
10 °C
± 2.5 °C
Net heat flux
Uncertainty of the heat flux gauge?
Calibration accuracy is ± 3 % at full scale
Non-linearity error 10 to 50 %
Net heat flux not symmetrical along the center
line
Exhaust vent
Open boundary at
three sides
Fiber cement panel
1 layer, 1 cell thick
k, ρ, cp constant
Backing exposed Burner
Grid resolution required to resolve boundary layer and wall gradients is in an order of 1 mm
High resolution grid reduce numerical errors - the discrepancies between experimental data and
computational results may be attributed to modeling errors
Mesh Grid cell size in direction perpendicular to the Total number Number Simulation
ID panel (number of cells in this direction) of cells of meshes time (s)
1 mm 1mm (12) - 2mm (26) - 4mm (9) - 2cm (95) 65 902 500 80 10
2 mm 2 mm (20) - 4 mm (10) - 8 mm (10) - 4cm (46) 22 222 800 36 40
2 cm 1cm (20) - 2cm (10) - 10 cm (17) 804 084 11 600
5 cm 1 cm (20) - 5 cm (38) 1 070 496 6 394
10 cm 1 cm (20) - 10 cm (19) 637 812 6 585
Δ ~ 5 °C ~ 15 %
Δ ~ 10 °C ~ 12.5 %
Δ ~ 20 °C ~ 20 %
Heat flux in the model is symmetrical along the panel center line
Wrong boundary condition in the hood area
Net heat flux to the cold versus hot wall

Grid resolution
Presence of moisture
k, cp are temperature dependent
1D heat transfer

Experiments
Evaluate the HFG uncertainty
Measure velocity profile in the doors to the room
Model
Change boundary condition in the hood area
Add temperature dependent k, cp
Evaluate the „conductive losses“ upwards and to the side of the
panel - 3D heat transfer.
