도로터널에서의 미분무수 소화시스템의 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위해 실물 화재 실험을 수행하였다. 적용된 화원은 실물 승용차 화재와 유류화재를 모사한 화원면적 $1.4m^2$의 heptane pool 화재이며, 기존 도로터널에 설치된 저압 물분무 시스템과 고압 미분부수 소화시스템과의 냉각효과 비교실험을 수행하였다. 도로터널 내의 환기조건을 구현하기 위해 실물모형 터널의 한 편에 터널 유속(0.9~3.8 m/sec 범위) 발생장치를 설치하였으며, 화원에서 하류 방향으로 터널 내 온도분포를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 1/5의 유량을 사용하는 고압 미분무수 소화시스템은 저압 물분무 시스템과 동등한 수준의 냉각효과를 보였다.

The full-scale experiments are carried out to investigate the fire suppression characteristics of water-based fire fighting systems in a road tunnel. Applied systems are the low-pressure water spray system at 3.5 bar and the high-pressure water mist system at 60 bar. The water flow rate of the high-pressure system is one sixth only of the water spray system. A passenger car and a heptane fuel pan with area of $1.4m^2$ are used as fire sources. A blower system is installed at the tunnel exit to realize the longitudinal ventilation conditions (0.9~3.8 m/s) in the tunnel. Temperatures from the fire source to the down-stream direction are measured by K-type thermocouple trees. The experimental results show that the cooling effect of the high pressure water mist system in the test conditions were equivalent to that of the low pressure water spray system for B-class fire.

The test system for the performance of the water-mist extinguishing system in the railway vehicle is equipped and the details of the system are introduced. The three scenarios using different fire sources and performance criteria for the water-mist systems on railway vehicles are also introduced. Three different type of the nozzle at same operating pressure are evaluated. Amount of water-mist distribution is measured by many baskets on the bottom of the test room. Temperature on the ceil and the tree of the test room is measured during the tests that are used for the judgement of the performance on the water-mist extinguishing system.
