Abstract

Korea urbanized rapidly, and overpopulation with high growth of the economy has resulted in decrepit facilities scattered all cities. If there is a strong wind during a fire, the fire is rapidly spread by various factors. Korea cannot build a prediction model for urban fire combustion phenomena because there are no studies that physically explain the suitable flame phenomena for its buildings. This study built a model for the generation of fire brand and includes to scattering, fall, and ignition An experiment was done using the wind tunnel facilities of the Japanese Building Research Institute (BRI). The results were used to explain the behavior of fire brand, and reflected in the fire simulation model.

우리나라는 급속한 경재성장 및 도시화로 인해 도시지역의 건축물이 밀집되어 있다. 이러한 지역에서 화재가 발생할 경우, 강풍에 의한 불티의 비산으로 화재가 확대될 위험성이 존재한다. 하지한 현재 불티의 성상에 대한 모델 구축 및 연구가 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 일본 건축연구소(BRI)의 풍동 시설을 이용한 불티의 성상 실험을 통하여 비산모델을 구축하고 기존의 도시화재 시뮬레이션을 개선하였다.
