Read the CFAST User's Manual for details.

There are quite a few changes in CFAST 6.3.0. Here's some of the changes:
  The combustion chemistry is brand new with simpler inputs
  There is a single input file that includes thermal properties and fire objects for the test case
  Flow rules for natural flow vents were changed to better handle buoyancy
  Point source fire radiation calculation was changed from base of the fire to center of the flame
  The binary history file was removed
  Corrected calculation of unburned hydrocarbons, layer absorptivity, wall/corner entrainment.
  Various bug fixes in the CEdit GUI

We are working on the manuals for the new release. At the moment, there are no 
updated guides for 6.3.

I should also note that version 6.3 is still in Beta-testing.  It is not yet a 
general release.
