A Programmer's Reference Manual for Cfast, the Unified Model of Fire Growth and Smoke Transport (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Programmer's Reference Manual for Cfast, the Unified Model of Fire Growth and Smoke Transport
Cfast is a consolidation of the model fast; and the concepts behind the ccpm work. These programs work on a variety of computers from basic pc's to super computers. Clearly the numerical portions run significantly faster on the latter than on the former. The only real restriction is that the platform must support a standard fortran compiler, and basic graphics concepts. The methodology described in this document is aimed at maintaining a relatively sophisticated model which includes the phenomena now extant, plus algorithms under development, as well as phenomena which we can envision in the future. As an evolutionary product, the computer requirements will increase over time. Although not an explicit requirement at this time, it is the authors' intentions to require an unsegmented memory scheme after the first release of this model. Such a requirement precludes some computer platforms that have been usable in the past. However, it is a relatively simple matter, given the structure of the model and protocol, to trim the kernel so that it will once again operate on such platforms.

A Programmerâs Reference Manual for Cfast (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book introduces CFAST, the fire and smoke model that will emerge from its predecessors CCFM and FAST. It details the mathematical concepts, software development structure, and operating environment of CFAST. This book is significant because it explains the combination of ideas that came from the CCFM and FAST research projects, leading to a unified model of fire growth and smoke spread. The CFAST model can be modified and expanded by other researchers to serve future fire science research needs. The techniques and tools that CFAST uses serve as a framework and methodology for maintaining the model itself, including methods for updating it. The author has tested these concepts through merging his own changes with those of a peer, demonstrating the viability of the framework. Researchers in the field of fire science will benefit from the depth of information found in this book. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334129261_0
