Abstract

In the area of numerical simulation of building fires, the computational domain is directly related to the accuracy of the simulation results. This article would be focused on small compartment fires with a single vent opening where heat release rate lied into the transitional region, which is a transformation of the Fuel Controlled Fires into the Ventilation Controlled Fires. The effects of computational domain on simulation results under different room aspect ratios were quantitatively analyzed by correlation analysis. The necessary extension of computational domain beyond physical boundaries of building enclosures was presented in dimensionless form. It provided a theoretical and data reference for the further simulation research in the transitional region.
