CONT: Design fires, which are the basis of the design fire scenario analysis, are described in termsof variables used for the quantitative analysis. These variables typically include the heatrelease rate of the fire, yield of toxic species and soot as functions of time. Where themathematical models used are not able to predict growth of fire and its spread to otherobjects within the tunnel traffic space or any other part of the tunnel, such growth and spread needs to be specified by the analysis as part of the design fire, or determined onexperimental basis, preferably at a realistic scale.
