This study was undertaken to evaluate the performance of flame retardant for fire precaution from sparks at welding-cutting process in industry sites such as shipbuilding yard and chemical factory. As the results of the performance experiment, six kinds of welding blanket in samples that are used commercially had enough in the performance of flame retardant. Nevertheless, the performance to fire precaution un welding blanket shows that the coaling product of two kinds with fiber glass is not sufficient. The lower oxygen index to welding blanket is considered that it is more than 30 in domestic standard. We suggested that the performance improvement of flame retardant for welding blanket need continuously, and the guideline of the flame retardant to welding blanket should be considered and established.

최근 산불과 같은 불티로 인한 2차화재의 발생 비율이 높아지고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 이를 불티로 인한 화재 성상을 CFD로 해석하기 위해서는 불티에 가해지는 유체력을 평가하여야 연소모델을 적용할 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존 풍속에 의한 불티 확산실험의 결과를 토대로 FDS에 적용 할 수 있는 연소모델을 구축하고 위하여 수리 모델 및 수치 해법에 대해 정리하고 이를 FDS 연소모델에 적용을 실시하였다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the fire srpead risk of building exterior and roofing materials due to the firebrand of forest fire occurring in the urban areas. Method: In order to achieve this research purpose, by selecting building materials used for exterior and roofing materials of buildings, the time to ignition, total heat release, and heat release rate were investigated, and a forest fire firebrand system was established to the possibility of fire spread was confirmed. Result: As a result of the cone calorimeter test, the roofing material had a similar or faster ignition time due to radiant heat compared to the exterior material with the steel plate exposed to the outside, and showed a higher heat release rate and total heat release than the exterior material. Although it was affected by the flammable material, it was confirmed that it did not spread easily due to the limited amount of combustible material, and carbonization marks appeared inside. Conclusion: The cone calorimeter test method has been shown to be useful in understanding the combustion characteristics of building materials by radiant heat, but the fire spread due to a firebrand in a forest fire is directly affected by the flame due to the ignition of surrounding combustibles, so finding a direct correlation with the cone calorimeter method is difficult. It is judged that the roof material may be more vulnerable to the spread of fire due to the fire than the exterior material.

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.

In this study, it was evaluated the fire risk during welding cutting tasks. Welding-cutting machines are representatively used at construction sites. Inverter AC/DC TIG welding macnine and inverter air plasma cutting machine were used in experiments. Temperature of spreaded cinders was measured using a thermal camera. Cinder sizes and spread range were measured according to the height and input current. It was also evaluated the fire risk during welding-cutting process, when flammable materials were located around the working area. There were used hay, dust fence, urethane foam, vinyl, paper and oil as flammable materials. Temperature of spreaded cinders was reached at about $450^{\circ}C$. Cinders were spread approximately 4.7 m, when a worker carried out cutting process at 2.5 m height. The possibility of a fire is very high, when flammable materials were located around the working area.

This study presents a treatment of suitable flame retardant through evaluating fire performance after treating flame retardant of fibers for development of welding blanket. The experimental samples used were commercial fibers and we are treated fibers with the flame retardant liquid and the flame retardant paint. The fire performance of the sample was carried out according to the Korea and Japan Standard. As the results of the fire performance experiment, the treated fiber in samples had enough in the performance of flame and fire retardant and the grade of their was from grade A to grade C according to flame and fire retardant standard. The lower oxygen index indicated that all treated samples with the resist are satisfied with international standard. We con-sider that the welding blanket treated with grade A, B and C performance prevents fire spread regardless of the height of work stairs in the case of installation horizontally. Also, it is considered that the welding blanket treated with grade C performance prevents fire spread regardless of the height of work stairs in the case of installation vertically.

조선업 및 화학공장 등 산업현장의 화재사고 중 용접$\cdot$용단작업시 불티에 의해 주위의 가연성물질을 착화시켜 화재, 폭발 사고를 일으키는 원인이 되고 있다. 이들 불꽃은 수평방향 및 틈새, 배관구멍 또는 마루나 댁의 작은 개구부 등을 통하여 비산되고 상당시간 훈소화재 형태를 유지하다 발화되어 화재의 원인이 되고 있다. 특히, 용단작업시 비산되는 불티는 $1,600^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온체로서 산소 압력에 따라 다르나 약 11 m(산소압력, 7 kg/$cm^2$)까지 비산되어 이 반경내에 있는 가연물에 착화될 수 있으므로 이에 대한 예방대책이 필요한 작업공정이다.

자연발화란 어떤 물질이 공기 중에 노출되어 외부의 화염, 불티, 고온체와의 접촉 등에 의한 출화가 아닌 그 물질 고유의 성질로 스스로 발열반응을 일으키고 온도상승을 일으켜 마침내 발화하는 현상을 말하며 다음과 같은 것이 있다.
