Fire risk modelling
GexCon, a provider of dispersion, explosion and fire modelling software, has released software package FLACS-Fire.
Tailor-made for the oil and gas, processing, and industrial segments, FLACS-Fire combines optimal usability with an impressive ability to generate detailed models of jet and pool fires.
FLACS, first released in 1986, is the industry standard in 3D CFD (computational fluid dynamics) gas dispersion and explosion modelling software, and FLACS-Fire completes its hazard modelling capability.
“Fire modelling has been the missing link for our users, particularly in the offshore oil and gas segment, where high momentum jet fires and pool fires are major hazards,” Djurre Siccama, GexCon vice president products, said. “It creates a ‘one-stop-shop’ for safety engineers; a single modelling platform for enhanced understanding, efficiency, and, most of all, safety.”
