THE INTERACTION OF FIRE with its environment is a complex, highly transient hydrochemical phenomenon. Because the concentration of chemicals within a flame changes during each time step in the combustion process, the chemical reactions are difficult to characterize generally. Numerical flow simulations of the events are useful but often unwieldy because only a fraction of the huge amounts of data they produce contains relevant information about phenomena of interest. Researchers at the University of Minnesota have developed a technique that filters computational fluid dynamics simulations to identify important information and uses traditional raycasting methods to depict the results. Shown here is a ...
