Fire and Smoke Modeling
Official regulations and safety concerns require efficient ventilation and detection systems:
• Understanding the spread of smoke and heat
• Designing efficient equipment for fire suppression
– Predicting the distribution of suppression agents
– Studying their interactions with the fire and smoke
• Identifying how fires develop
• Determining impact on neighbouring structures
This is not a movie with special effects; this is the result of accurate simulations!

Conclusions
Construction industry face increasing pressures: • Cost, time, safety, comfort, environment
Competition is tough and requires to illustrate a priori the superiority of a project
Virtual Building Design and Construction offers an attractive alternative
• Validate proposed designs against regulations
• Optimize buildings to maximize occupant comfort and minimize operating cost
• Communicate and illustrate benefit to protagonists
ANSYS provides a complete workflow opening the door to changing the way buildings are designed
