Does anyone have any supporting documentation for this model?

Not sure what you are after, as far as I know ' Zone Model ' is a very limited tool, fire field software like Smart-Fire is more beneficial, also in the C Room; how many vents are there, their sizes, ... etc???????

Have a number of models.  I was asking because I had not come across C ROOM before and was contemplating putting together an article on basic models.

If it's a 2-zone model then there may be parallels with 'Radism' and the like developed by BRE and associates in the early 1990s. Has the advantage of needing much less 'number crunching' that a computational fluid dynamics based model and so doesn't need a large computer to run on (well, it didn't by the 1990s standards of the day!). Accuracy may be less, but I was able to match results in the computer model to within 10% of the results in experiments, which we thought was quite good at the time.
