This clip shows a CFD model of a Building Regulations compliant dead-end corridor fitted with a conventional AOV. Smoke is shown blue and clear air is shown red. At the start of the video the door opens to allow people to escape and smoke pours out of the apartment and hangs around in the corridor. The video then jumps forward to when the fire brigade arrive to open the door again to fight the fire. The corridor fills with smoke.  The corridor remains smoke logged for a long time after the door is re-closed.
