FDS, or Fire Dynamics Simulator, is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for modeling fire scenarios and smoke movement. It simulates the behavior of fire and its impact on the surrounding environment, allowing for a better understanding of fire dynamics, heat transfer, and smoke propagation in various settings such as buildings and tunnels.
congrats on reading the definition of fds. now let's actually learn it.
