Title: WTC 1 Fire Simulation
Description: Comparison of two computer simulations of the fire behavior in the upper stories of the WTC North Tower (1 WTC) based on different internal conditions and fuel distribution. The left simulation shows very large flames extending from the exterior damage holes with the right showing few flames extending out. The simulation on the right seems to agree more with pictorial records.
