Using Modeling and Simulation to Graphically Display the Interaction of the Fire and the Extinguishing Agent

Abstract

The U.S. Army Tank Automotive Research, Development, and Engineering Center (TARDEC) uses state-of-the-art modeling and simulation techniques as an integral part of its Simulation and Modeling for Acquisition, Requirement, and Training (SMART) effort. This paper will address how we applied these powerful tools to accurately depict how Halon-alternative agents react in a military vehicle.
