Description
Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) serves as a free and open-source platform for the modeling and visualization of flows influenced by fire. This computational fluid dynamics code effectively solves a variant of the Navier–Stokes equations tailored for low-speed, thermally-driven airflow, focusing particularly on the transport of smoke and heat resulting from fires. Employing large-eddy simulation, it captures the intricacies of fire-plume dynamics and can be utilized in diverse scenarios, such as those involving wind, sprinklers, ventilation systems, and various materials that affect fire behavior. Users create scenarios by utilizing text-based input files, execute the calculations within FDS, and subsequently evaluate the output data. The simulator presents results from both FDS and CFAST simulations through advanced OpenGL-based 3D graphics, incorporating scientific visualization techniques that include animated representations of smoke and tracer particles, two- and three-dimensional shaded contours, iso-surfaces, temperature distributions, and flow vectors that display both direction and intensity. In addition to these features, FDS is continually updated to enhance user experience and functionality, making it a vital tool for researchers and safety professionals alike.
Description
Like the other Dlubal Software programs RWIND, the wind simulation program RWIND is simple to use and delivers the desired result reliably. RWIND will ensure that the wind does not blow out of your project's sails. RWIND allows for the analysis of wind flows (digital winds tunnel) around buildings and other objects. RWIND uses a CFD simulation, which simulates the effects of wind on the structures. You can run a wind simulation for simple and complex structures. The result will speak for itself. The wind loads calculated using RWIND can then be imported into RFEM and RSTAB.
