Modelling and numerical simulation of fire in a coffee storage hall [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 An approach for modelling of fire in halls at solid materials burning, based on gas phase combustion models in ANSYS/CFX, is proposed. The models are suitable for quick prediction of the flue gases distribution and thermal loads on the building envelopes

The building envelope as an air filter [PDF]
Building and Environment, 1998 Recent research suggests that fine-particulate air pollution increases the incidence of lung disease and premature death. In this paper, single fibre filter theory was used to predict the theoretical particulate collection efficiency of air permeable walls (dynamic insulation).
