Fire Modeling & Probabilistic Risk Analysis with FRI3D
The Fire Risk Investigation in 3D (FRI3D) automates many of the tasks for fire modeling and PRA under one system, reducing the overall maintenance costs and human errors for fire modeling. The platform also maintains all necessary information in one place allowing the analyst to evaluate scenarios without accessing numerous plant drawings and database and will give the analyst direct access (built in) to the industry approved fire modelling codes and methods. The use of FRI3D by operators, regulators and engineering consultancy firms is expected to lead to the enhancement of fire PRA, increased safety, and reduced operating costs. This workshop will go over a sample fire analysis using FRI3D on perform a sample fire analysis. It will go over a few typical fire scenarios encountered by the industry. Please go to https://fri3d.centroidlab.com/guides/fri3d-2022-summer-psam16-workshop to download the materials and an evaluation copy of FRI3D for the workshop. This step is just to follow along during the workshop and not necessary or mandatory.
