Fire and Gas Detection Studies

Advanced Analysis use CFD to model fire and gas detection systems, which are an important risk reducing measure on facilities where there is potential for fire, explosion, or toxic releases. 
The Fire & Gas detection system should enable mitigation of hazardous conditions such as fire or loss of containment by performing three basic functions:

• Detect the Hazard

• Alert People

• Initiate Action

​

The use of CFD enables the optimisation of detector placement in order to enable the detection of all significant releases, while not unnecessarily hindering facility operation using the minimum number of detectors possible. CFD of fire and gas detection systems are some of the most cost effective studies any major hazard facility can carry out.
