This analysis developed correlations for the corridor smoke velocity, both as a function of the heat release rate of the associated fire and the upper layer temperatures within the fire compartment. Problems associated with the data collection and level in the correlation based on heat release rat. The data do appear to confirm the results of previous efforts that indicated a weak relationship between the heat release rate and smoke velocity,on the order of the one-third to one-forth power.The temperature data tended to be less problematic. This correlation shows promise for potential use with the both the SFSEM and other existing computer models/routines.However,unlike previous studies of this relationship,the results of these data suggest that the velocity-temperature relationship is linear and not a square-root function.
