If you have Phoenix FD installed, you can use it to control your fire.
If you don't have Phoenix, you will have to export your fire to Open VDB format and then load it through Corona Volume Grid - https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/12000045276

You shouldn't need to export in order to render, you can render directly using the controls in PhoenixFD. If you are having problems with the PhoenixFD direct render not looking right, probably best is to share the resulting images and settings (or making life easier, you could share the scene via private uploader, see https://coronarenderer.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/5000524006-how-to-report-issues-3ds-max which includes the link for the private uploader).

Exporting to OpenVFB would be for sending the file to someone who doesn't have PhoenixFD installed but wants to render it - but with PhoenixFD you can render directly, and use the usual controls in Phoenix to manage how everything looks. Are these settings ones that work under some other render engine?
