Computer Fire Code VI. Volume 1

摘要

There is no definitive version of CFR VI yet, but this document will be valid for any version. The numerical 'package' used is described in general terms only. The physics inherent in the program is also omitted; however, most of those subroutines have been taken directly from Mark 5, although they have been broken up so that any subroutine has just one output. For the reader interested in the documentation of the physics, it is given in detail in Harvard Fire Project Technical Reports 34 and 45. There are four appendices, wherein it is explained how to insert a new subroutine or a new physical variable. Following the report, a listing of the program appears; this is a version of CFC VI which compiles on both a VAX and a Perkin-Elmer computer. The program was written in ANSI 77 FORTRAN, and is fairly machine-independent. It consists of two independent parts: BINP is a program which produces an input file for the second (main) program, DBLE, to use. Two differences between CFC VI and Mark 5 not described in the Foreword are: first, the gas burner algorithm in Mark 5 has not been incorporated. Second, the gas concentrations are incorrectly computed.
