The purpose of this investigation is to examine the feasibility df usi
ng computed tomography to evaluate the predictive capabilities of fire
models. In this pursuit, we have analyzed data fi om both laboratory-
and computer-generated plumes in order to determine the number of line
-of-sight measurements, the detector topology, and the temporal resolu
tion needed to obtain accurate reconstructions of component concentrat
ions in fire atmospheres. (C) 1998 by The Combustion Institute.
