Numerical simulation methods of smoke movement under building fires and its evaluation

Abstract：The author makes a general analysis of numerical simulation methods about building fires and smoke movement in common use all over the world, expatiates on the main ideology of each numerical simulation methods, and introduces the development of fire simulation softwares based on each simulation methods.The characters and weakpoints of each numerical simulation methods are discussed, the range of its application and the direction of numerical simulation methods about building fires and smoke movement in our country are pointed out.
