Fds Smv For Mac
FDS-SMV Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) is a large-eddy simulation (LES) code for low-speed flows, with an emphasis on smoke and heat transport from fires. Smokeview (SMV) is a visualization program used to display the output of FDS and CFAST simulations. Download Documentation Discussion Forum Issue Tracker Wiki Pages. The default install location for fds on a mac is /Applications/FDS/FDS6. If you chose the defaults and you don't see any files there then something went wrong when installing fds. I have only tested mac installs using the bash shell. I see you are using the zsh shell.
The program works with the following extensions: mp3, flv, mkv, mp4, bmp, avi, swf, vob, dat, gif, wma, jpg, wmv, jpeg, wv, mov, au, ts, ra, tp, qt, wm, rm, rp, rt, torrent, amr, dvd, mod, dts, d2v, wpl, ape, bnm, flc, f4v, mp2, fsp, wvx, fli, wmp, ap3, 3g2, pcd, m4a, pva, mpa, dsa, 3gp, aif, m4b, pmp, mpe, dsv, mps, m4p, evo, mts, mp5, mac, asf, m4v, vp6, mpg, ogg, pm2, aac, ivf, asx, bik, ogm, ac3, roq, rmi, qpl, dss, mpv, tpr, csf, cda, pls, vp7, wav, m2p, m1v, pss, wax, ram, rsc, jpe, m2v, smi, scm, smv, tta, m3u, qti, tim, rpm, mid, cue, dsm, rat, vg2, amv, wmx, vid, flac, m2ts, mpga, 3gp2, aifc, mpeg, 3gpp, aiff, mpv2, pmp2, qtif, flic, smil, rmvb, ttpl, midi, divx, qvodcd and qvoddvd
Trusted Mac download FDS 5.5.2. Virus-free and 100% clean download. Get FDS alternative downloads. Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model of fire-driven fluid flow. The software solves numerically a form of the Navier-Stokes equations appropriate for low-speed, thermally-driven flow, with an emphasis on smoke and heat transport from fires.
The simple answer to your question would be to get the best computer that you could afford where I would define best as
1) fast duo core CPU - two duo-cores if you can afford them.
2) lots of memory, at least 3GB if you use a 32 bit OS and 1GB per core
if you have more than 2 cores,

3) lots of hard drive space at least a couple of hundred GB's, You can
always supplement hard disk space later with external USB or e-sata drives.

4) OS that is 'best' supported by the FDS/Smokeview development team.
In my opinion this would be a Windows PC for Smokeview and a Windows PC
or Linux PC for FDS - unfortunately and again this is my opinion, though
the Mac has a lot of virtues it is not a good choice for FDS or
Smokeview for the simple reason that we do not develop FDS and Smokeview
on the Mac (or the Cray for that matter!) I develop Smokeview on a
Windows PC and FDS is developed on a Windows PC and a Linux PC (Kevin
can speak better to which platform he and others use more). So if there
are problem occuring on a Mac we have limited abilities to fix them.
(There was a period of several months last year when I couldn't even
build Smokeview on the Mac)
For futher insight, go to the FDS - Smokeview download page under
http://fire.nist.gov/fds and see how many people are downloading which
versions of the software.
