A Study on the Formation of Smoke Layer and the Zone modelling in Compartment Fire

건물화재시 연기층 형성과 영역모델에 관한 연구

The objective of this research is to study on the upper and lower layer temperature, interface height and pressure in case of carpet, chair, trashcan and wardrobe fires in a residential room by performing the theoretical and experimental studies. The theoretical results of the upper and lower layer temperature, the interface height and the pressure were qualitatively well coincided with the experimental results. The uniformly distributed fire in case of carpet showed that the ignition and the initial growth period were relatively short while the fully developed period was considerably long. The concentrated fires such as the wardrobe showed that the ignitions and the initial growth periods were relatively long. The interface heights were around 1m as the steady state. However, at the time of the maximum temperature, the interface height was lowered to 0.5m from the floor. The pressure variation in the fire room ranged between 0.1mmAq and 0.4mmAq, and the temperature reached the highest while the pressure was maximum.
