Hi,

I am simulating a small-scale n-heptane pool fire considering a wide-band model. I am interested in extracting band-specific intensity instead of integrated intensity. Can you please let me know the way to extract band-specific intensity?

Thanks,
Sagar

FDS does not save the intensity, I, in the gas phase. With 100 angles and millions of grid cells, this would be overwhelming. there is a way to extract some intensity information. See User's Guide 21.10.14 Extracting Detailed Radiation Data. I do not know if we can get band-specific data this way.

Quick question to you, Sagar: Do you need intensities per steradian (solid angle) for each band.  Or would BAND-SPECIFIC INTEGRATED INTENSITY be useful for you?  This integrated intensity per band we could implement pretty easily.  But I don't want to go through it if that will not help.  Let me know.

 BAND-SPECIFIC INTEGRATED INTENSITY would be useful in my case. I want to compare it with measured signals in different bands.

Kevin stated this is not a current capability and Randy indicated it is something we could add if you didn't need it per steradian. This will take some time to add.

For curiosity, what kind of measurement you plan to compare against band-specific INTEGRATED INTENSITY?

I want to see the level of confidence in statistics parameter matching of band-specific integrated intensity with multi band mid IR sensor signal statistics.
