Summary

Pressure difference due to buoyancy between a fire compartment and surroundings at 20 °C. Based on Klote (2002), p. 4-276.

Original illustration for Fire-induced pressure, level 4 Expert.

  • Source basis: Klote (2002), p. 4-276, Equation 2 and the text examples; Klote's Figure 4-12.4 shows the same relation plotted against fire compartment temperature (redraw, do not copy)
  • Alt text: Line chart: pressure difference rises linearly with height above the neutral plane, to about 20 to 26 Pa at 3 m for fires of 400 to 800 °C.
