Hot Gas Temperature Increase (Beyler Method)

fire_dynamics_tools_chapter_2_equation_2_6

Calculates the hot gas temperature increase using the Beyler method for forced ventilation

Equations

\Delta T_g = \frac{2 \cdot \frac{\dot{Q}}{\dot{m} \cdot c_p}}{\left(\frac{2 \cdot 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{k \cdot \rho \cdot c}}{\dot{m} \cdot c_p}\right)^2} \cdot \left(\frac{2 \cdot 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{k \cdot \rho \cdot c}}{\dot{m} \cdot c_p} \cdot \sqrt{t} - 1 + e^{-\frac{2 \cdot 0.4 \cdot \sqrt{k \cdot \rho \cdot c}}{\dot{m} \cdot c_p} \cdot \sqrt{t}}\right)
