Sir, can you share a Oil Tank Farm pool fire model input file for FDS

[@fireprotectionengineer]

Hey. Have you gotten FDS to work with M1 mac?

[@akshaybisht901]

What is the laptop/pc requirement for this software ?

[@FabricioRWitt]

Really not much, brother, the software uses only your processor, but the slower the processor, the slower the simulation. In a slow computer 1 minute of simulated fire could take days to be completed, in a faster machine it can maybe take hours.
