The Chaos Group posts a (hard rockin’) look at their new grid based simulator for fire and smoke Phoenix FD (Fluid Dynamics) by Michael McCarthy

In addition to the usual uniform fluid behavior, Phoenix FD is capable of simulating a whole array of additional processes like pressure decay, thermal radiation cooling and mass-temperature dependence.”
