报告摘要：The Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) is a fire model based on the computational technique called large-eddy simulation. FDS Version 1.0 was released in 2001. While this code was a fast and powerful engineering tool, it had significant limitations. Over the past 15 years FDS has matured considerably. This talk discusses ten milestones in FDS development, mostly related to the hydrodynamics solver. These improvements have enabled within FDS such capabilities as parallel, multi-mesh computations (via MPI), improved turbulent transport, and improved chemical kinetics.

报告人简介：Randy McDermott joined the Fire Research Division at NIST in 2007. He received a B.S. from the University of Tulsa in Chemical Engineering in 1994 and a Ph.D. from the University of Utah in 2005. He did his post-doc with Steve Pope at Cornell. His research interests include subgrid-scale models and numerical methods for large-eddy simulation, adaptive mesh refinement, immersed boundary methods, and Lagrangian particle methods.
