Flame retardancy of polymers

The french group of research on fire, ‘GdR CNRS Feux‘, organizes Wednesday, September 23, 2015 at INERIS in Paris (10th arr) a workshop on the FireFoam model. This meeting follows the one organized in 2014.

Brief description of FireFoam: With fireFoam, it is possible to simulate the growth and dynamics of fires in enclosed volumes. It can be used to understand and analyze the important phenomena that control the growth of a fire, to determine the thermal impact on the environment of the source of fire, to predict the movement of smokes between connected compartments. It is developped by the FM-Global company, in the frame of the OpenFOAM platform, which is a set of free softwares, developed in the logic GNU GPL (The General Public License) and provides all the tools for the simulation of solid mechanics, heat transfers and fluid mechanics. FireFOAM is open and free and include all the developments of OpenFOAM. In addition, FireFOAM contains all the necessary tools for the simulation of the phenomena that control the dynamics of a fire, combustion, radiation, soot production, extinction by sprinklers …

This workshop aims
–  to explore the opportunities of FireFOAM in presenting applications,
–  to launch discussions on general or technical issues.
