Abstract Smoke management system in all buildings received great interest as a way to decrease fatalities during fires as it prevents the spread of fire and provides a safe escape route for occupants. The smoke has many dangerous effects as it causes asphyxiation and death. Additionally, it reduces the visibility thus will lead to difficulty in the evacuation during the fire. This research provides a numerical study for smoke control in the movie theatre. This research investigates the effect of the fire source location in the case of the natural ventilation system on basic design parameters such as smoke layer height, concentration of Carbon Monoxide (CO), temperature, and visibility at different heights and different places in the movie theatre. Also, the effect of natural ventilation and mechanical ventilation on the same design parameters are studied |
