Summary
Energy balance on the hot upper layer: the heat released by the fire leaves with the hot gas through the opening or is lost to the walls, ceiling and floor. Based on Walton and Thomas (2002), pp. 3-172 and 3-175.
Original illustration for MQH correlation, level 4 Expert.
- Source basis: Walton and Thomas (2002), p. 3-172 (two-layer model, plume, interface, outflow and inflow at openings) and p. 3-175 (Equations 7 and 8, heat loss approximately equal to conduction into the surfaces); Van Rossum (2027), §3.7 (energy balance on a smoke layer)
- Alt text: Cross-section of a room fire with a hot upper layer, hot gas leaving through the top of a door, air entering below and heat flowing into walls.
