In this paper is presented a description of a new engineering tool for evaluation of water-based fire suppression system (sprinklers), based on a high fidelity description of initial characteristics of the jet (sphere initialization from 4S device). The proposed model has three principal innovative advantages over classical Lagrangian approach: i) Speed: Fast calculation of the spray anywhere; ii) Description of the spray in the phase space, which turns the description of the spray into a time-independent, enabling compact, fast, and useful reconstruction of the spray; iii) Description of the spray as a set of 2D spray dispersion fields allowing considerable simplification of the spray field analysis. As results, a 2D visualization of the spray (volume flux), and an example of volume flux into a surface are reported.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
