T1 - Modeling fire scenarios and smoke migration in structures N2 - Mathematical modeling of physical phenomena is an attempt to create tools which can help • to predict relevant parameters of an event at its final stage, • to predict the course of a process with time, and • to quantify the influence of System parameters, boundary conditions, material properties and so forth on the process. Applied to fire modeling the aim is either to prevent the occurrence of fires or toprevent or at least mitigate their potentially harmful consequences or to be able to reconstruct the chain of events of a fire. The first two aims, of course, are far more frequently made use of than the last one.
