The work presented in this paper comes within the framework of a 3-year French collaborative research project dedicated to the use of composite materials in shipbuilding. In this project, it is planned to use the CFD (computational fluid dynamics) code FDS5 with a pyrolysis model to better account for the behaviour of composite walls in the simulation of fires onboard a ship. However, prior to the simulation of complete fire scenarios, numerical simulations of actual experiments performed on composite material samples of increasing size were performed for validation and evaluation purposes. The corresponding methodology and the results of these preliminary tests are presented and discussed.
