Abstract

A new level of the modeling approaches of spaces set on fire is analyzed where the particularities of the functions are carefully treated. This article presents the fire analysis of an auditorium which has various functions and therefore depending on the performance, people may sit down or stand, leading to different evacuation fire scenarios. Based on this, the analysis of the differences in the evacuation scenarios of a group of people was performed for two different situations: one standing and one sitting. For the analyses, FDS, Smoke view, and Pyrosim software were used.
