PREDICTION OF FIRE EXTINGUISH SYSTEM PERFORMANCE BY NUMERICAL METHOD

항공기 엔진베이 내 소화장치 성능예측을 위한 전산해석방법 연구

There is fire dangers inside engine bay where fuel of oil leakge can be ignited by hot engine surfaces. So, Fire suppressor is needed to extinguish the flames. The current FAA requirement is that the concentration level should be greater than 6% by volume throughtout the protected zone for longer than a half second simultaneously. To Satisfy the FAA requirement, The Fire extinguish system should quickly delivery the fire extinguish agents and Fire extinguish system should be designed effectively. This study is to develop and simulate the injection of fire extinguish agents into the engine-bay. Transient simulations were performed and predicted the concentration of fire extinguish agents at the certain locatioin in the engine-bay.
