Blender add-on for creating, editing and exchanging NIST Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) models.

What BFDS fire simulations does

BFDS fire simulations lets fire safety engineers set up NIST Fire Dynamics Simulator models in Blender instead of typing geometry by hand. FDS entities are built and edited with Blender's 3D tools.

FDS files can be imported from and exported to disk, geographic positions can be displayed and coordinates converted. It is the successor to the community-driven BlenderFDS project, works with Blender 4.5 LTS and newer, and is licensed GPL v3.0 or later. Researchers and students also use it.

Key features

  • Create and manage FDS models
  • Edit FDS entities with 3D tools
  • Import and export FDS files
  • Geographic position display and conversion
  • Successor to BlenderFDS
