We would need to see a case that doesn't work. |

Hi everyone,
I have been trying to understand the key features of simulating sprinkler systems in FDS.
I have tested the implementation of my sprinklers in a small-scale simulation, where they work as they are supposed and water particles are simulated. If I copy the code fragment of the functioning sprinklers into my big simulation the simulation doesn't simulate any water particles. Does any argument in a FDS simulation prevent water particles from being simulated?
The sprinkler should be heat activated if it reaches a certain temperature (74°C)
For testing purposes, I set TMPA =80 in both simulations, so the sprinkler activates directly.
One of my working sprinkler configurations looks like this:
&MISC TMPA=80.0, POROUS_FLOOR=.FALSE./
&SPEC ID='WATER VAPOR'/
&PART ID='Water',
SPEC_ID='WATER VAPOR',
DIAMETER=500.0,
MONODISPERSE=.TRUE.,
AGE=60.0,
SAMPLING_FACTOR=1/
&PROP ID='Generic Industrial Spray01',
PART_ID='Water',
FLOW_RATE=100.0,
PARTICLE_VELOCITY=5.0,
SPRAY_ANGLE=15.0,85.0/
&DEVC ID='Sprinkler1', PROP_ID='Generic Industrial Spray01', XYZ=5.5,3.0,9.8, QUANTITY='TEMPERATURE', SETPOINT=74.0/
Any help would be highly appreciated, thank you in advance
