(2) EASE OF USE/1
For models to be used reliably by non-experts they must be relatively easy to use.
Consider for example fire field modelling
FSEs are not CFD experts, do not have the time to become one and generally does not wish to become one.
Unfortunately to make use of current FFMs this is a necessity.
? FFMs may not be used, be used poorly or an expert is brought in to assist, adding to the cost of use.
This situation has occurred as FFMs are generally developed by CFD experts for use by CFD experts.
Nature of the target audience has been ignored!
