This week is the fifteen of our 2020 PE Prep Series - it's 20-weeks worth of mini Fire Protection PE Exams.

You may not have noticed it if you took the exam later in the week as we corrected the solution mid-week. Those who scored it incorrectly from the prior bad solution were given credit.

Week 9 Correction: A question from Week 9 (Question 1) referred to the formula for the mean velocity of a fire plum with a coefficient of 0.77, which matches FPH but not the new NCEES Handbook. This formula should be 1.03 as identified in NCEES 3.4.7. Updates are in the 2020 PE Prep Guide Errata as well, which is explained in full here: www.meyerfire.com/errata. Solutions where updated for Week 9, so those who took the exam later in the week may have already seen the corrected feedback showing a coefficient of 1.03.

Please Note: The solution for Problem #7 of Week 7 used the Total Heat Release Rate to find the height of the flame tip. This is incorrect; the convective portion of the heat release rate (assumed to be 70% of the total heat release rate) should be used to calculate flame tip height.
