재난은 다양한 원인에 의하여 예측 불가능하게 발생되고 있다. 정보화의 진전에 따라 네트워크는 모든 경제활동의 근간이 되어 있으며, 재난이 발생하면 재난복구 및 구난 활동 등에 통신기능의 활용도가 더욱 높아진다. 특히 통신 장애를 일으키는 통신재난이 발생하면 그 파급효과는 빠르고, 넓게 확산되는 경향을 보인다. 본 고에서는 표준단체에서 비상통신과 관련하여 표준화 활동을 수행하고 있는 동향을 살펴보고 비상통신서비스를 제공하기 위한 기능요구사항 및 광대역통합망 구축 시 비상통신서비스를 제공하기 위해서 고려해야 할 기능에 대해서 기술한다.

In designing smoke-control system of rescue station in train tunnel, a purpose is to prevent a disaster by proposing the jet fan operation together with smoke-control curtain in tunnel fire. This study has investigated the relationship of the Heat Release Rate(HRR) and a adequate ventilation velocity to control the fire propagation in tunnel fire, and has improved the effect of the smoke-control curtain on preventing the flow of pollutants. In this study, Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) simulations with ST AR-CD(ver 3.24) were carried out on predicting the fire spreading and the flow of pollutants, considering jet fan operations and effect of smoke-control curtain. Our simulation domain is the full scale model of the 'DAEGWALLYEONG' 1st tunnel. The results represent that ventilation operation can control the fire spreading and pollutants effectively to prevent a disaster.

The present study performed numerical investigation to analyze the smoke behavior in the rescue station by using the commercial CFD code (FLUENT Ver 6.3). The present study adopted a 10MW ultrafast mode for simulation, and it also used the MVHS(Modify Volumetric Heat Source) model modified from the original VHS(Volumetric Heat Source) model in order to treat the product generation and the oxygen consumption under the stoichiometric state. In addition, the present simulation includes the species conservation equation for the materialization of heat source and the estimation of smoke movement. From the results, the smoke flows are moving along the ceiling because of thermal buoyancy force and as time goes, the smoke gradually moves downward at the vicinity of the entrance. Moreover, without using ventilation, it is found that the smoke flows no longer spread across the cross-passages because the pressure in the non-accident tunnel is higher than that in the accident tunnel.

The present study investigates the ventilation effects on smoke spreading characteristics in railway tunnels with the rescue stations. Experiments were carried out for n-heptane pool fires with a square length 4 cm at different fire locations, and the heat release rates (HRR) were obtained by the measurement of burning rates. In addition, using the commercial code (FLUENT), the present article presents numerical results for smoke behavior in railway tunnels with rescue station, and it uses the MVHS (Modified Volumetric Heat Source) model for estimation of combustion products resulting from the fire source determined from the HRR measurement. As a result, it is found that smoke propagation is prevented successfully by the fire doors located inside the cross-passages and especially, the smoke behavior in the accident tunnel can be controlled through the ventilation system because of substantial change in smoke flow direction in the cross-passages.

Since the Daegu subway fire accident, people's perception of safety has increased, and all materials inside the train have been changed to incombustible materials. However, there is still a lack of development of fire extinguishing systems. Train components are mostly made of steel plates, and therefore it is very difficult to extinguish the train fire by using general fire extinguishing equipment. In this regard, this paper investigated rapid and easy methods of extinguishing the train fire by using compressed air foam systems through full-scale fire tests. To extinguish the fire of train at rescue station, window breakers were used to quickly destroy the train windows, and the compressed air foam system was inserted inside the train. As a result, the train windows were destroyed in 5 seconds, and the 11.88-MW fire was put out in 30 seconds by the compressed air foam discharged from the compressed air foam system inserted inside the train. For the future work, there is a need for further experimental studies to prevent the spread of fire and protect tunnel structures with the use of compressed air foam systems.

In this study, the 1/35 reduced-scale model experiment were conducted to investigate designed ventilation effect on the smoke movement at rescue station fire in railway tunnel. A model tunnel with 2 mm thick, 10 m long, 0.19 m high and 0.26 m was made by using Froude number scaling law. The cross-passages installing escape door at the center were connected between incident tunnel and rescue tunnel. The n-heptane pool fires with heat release rate 698.97W were used as fire source. The fire source was located at the center and portal of incident tunnel as worst case. A operating ventilation system extracted smoke amount of 0.015 cms(cubic meters per second). The smoke temperature and CO gas concentration in cross-passage were measured to verify designed ventilation system. The result showed that, at center fire case without ventilation, smoke did not propagate to rescues station. In portal fire case, smoke spreaded to rescues station without ventilation. But smoke did not propagated to rescues station with designed ventilation.

In the present study a 1D-3D numerical simulation was performed to analyze the fire safety in a rescue station of a long railroad tunnel equipped with a mechanical ventilation. The behavior of hot air was studied for the emergency operation mode of ventilation system in case of fire in the rescue station. The 1D simulation was carried out for entire tunnel region. Detailed 3D CFD simulation was performed for the rescue station area in the central region of the tunnel by using the result of the 1D simulation as the boundary condition of the 3D simulation. Various type of cross passage installation were evaluated for the prevention of smoke diffusion to suggest the optimized interval of the cross passages in the rescue tunnel.

인류가 살아온 역사는 재난을 극복하기 위한 과정의 연속이였다. 효율적인 재난 대응을 하기 위해서는 중앙정부 뿐만 아니라 지방자치단체도 통합관리체제로 재편되어야 할 것이다. 기초자치단체의 재난관리체계가 상당히 미흡한 상태이기에 광역지방자치단체와 긴밀한 상호공조체제 유지로 역할 분담을 명확히 하여 신속하고 체계적인 대응체계를 구축하고, 재난관리 전문인력을 집중 육성 및 구난장비의 확충과 더불어, 국민들의 안전의식 수준을 향상시키고 위기 상황발생시 극복할 수 있는 가상체험 훈련 등을 통하여 유사시에 대비할 수 있도록 한다. 또한 재난관리 정보시스템을 설계하고, 재난관리 대응매뉴얼을 활용하여 재난시 국민들이 슬기롭게 대처하여 재난피해를 최소화 하는 방안을 강구하여야 한다.

영동선 이설사업 일환으로 영동선 동백산역(강원도 태백시 연화동)과 도계역(삼척시 도계읍)간의 본 터널은 총 연장 16.4km인 장대터널로서 전북 완주 전라선 슬치터널(6.12km)보다 10km 이상 길고, 정선 고한과 태백 추전을 잇는 4.5km의 정암터널의 3배가 넘는다. 특히 이 터널은 구간의 높이 차(약 3백80m)를 극복하기 위해 Loop형태로 설계되었고, 열차의 안정성, 구난대피, 환기측면에서 단선병렬 터널로 설계되었다. 또한 불량한 선형과 노후된 터널구조물로 인한 열차 안전운행 저해요인을 해소하기 위해 천공발파공법을 굴착공법으로 채택하였다.

In this study, applicability of compressed air form (CAF) fire water was verified in a bid to use the undersea effluent as fire water. Foam collector was fabricated in accordance with KS B ISO 7203-1 (Specification for low expansion foam concentrates for top application to water-immiscible liquids) and the test was conducted using fresh water as fire water for 19 times and using seawater as fire water 15 times that totaled 34 times. Foam reduction time was 237.73 seconds on average with fresh water and 215.60 seconds with seawater, which proved the applicability of CAF fire water using seawater. Besides, window breaker was fabricated to directly extinguish the fire in train and a full-scale fire test was conducted three times. At the final 3rd test, window glass was broken in 2 seconds to make the hole for fire extinguishing and suppressed the fire in 3 seconds using CAF fire extinguisher.
