CFAST Components

CFAST models are composed of various components that represent different aspects of the fire scenario being modeled. These components include:

CeilingFloorVent	Represents vertical flow vent connections between compartments.
Compartment	Defines the size, position, materials of construction, and flow characteristics for compartments.
Device	Represents measurement and fire protection devices in a CFAST simulation.
Fire	Represents a fire source in a CFAST simulation.
Material	Defines thermophysical properties of materials used for compartment surfaces or targets.
MechanicalVent	Represents a mechanical ventilation system in a CFAST simulation.
SimulationEnvironment	Defines the initial conditions and simulation time for the CFAST input file.
SurfaceConnection	Represents surface connections for heat transfer between compartments in CFAST.
WallVent	Represents wall openings connecting two compartments that physically overlap in elevation.
