유입된 공기가 배출될 때 중앙코어형 건축물이나 지하층처럼 밀폐된 공간의 경우 옥내에 부압이 형성되며 제연구역과 과도한 압력차이로 출입문 개방에 필요한 힘을 초과하는 등 많은 문제들을 야기할 수 있다. 유입공기 배출댐퍼가 적용된 ◯◯오피스텔을 사례로 실제 TAB(Testing, Aejuwting, Balancing)를 수행하여 유입공기 배출에 따른 영향과 제연성능의 개선방안을 알아보고자 하였다. 유입공기 배출댐퍼를 순차적으로 개방해 가며 차압 및 방연풍속 등의 변화를 기록한 결과 밀폐된 복도에서 유입 공기 배출댐퍼가 개방되면 복도에 부압이 형성되고 제연구역에 과도한 압력이 발생하여 출입문 개방에 필요한 힘을 초과하였다. 유입공기 배출댐퍼 개방 층수를 증가시켜 TAB를 수행한 결과 3개층 까지 개방하여도 방연풍속이 확보되었다.

Purpose: In the event of a fire in a high-rise building, if the smoke control area is not effectively protected, smoke or flames enter the stairwell, making it difficult to evacuate. When inflowing air is discharged from a closed corridor, a negative pressure is formed in the corridor, the pressure in the smoke control area becomes excessively high, and the force required to open the door during evacuation is exceeded. Also, if the air introduced into the hallway is not exhausted, the smoke may flow back into the smoke control area. This paper tried to identify the problems caused by the inflowing air and to find out how to improve the performance. Method: Using the CONTAM program, simulations were performed with the basic conditions and the modified conditions. Result: If the inflowing air was discharged from the sealed corridor, overpressure occurred in the Smoke Control Area and exceeded the opening force, and the prevent smoke backflow was insufficient in the layer where the inflowing air was not discharged. Conclusion: "Differential pressure exhaust damper" application, simultaneous opening of two exhaust dampers, and automatic window installation between corridors and outdoors improved the exhaust performance of inflowing air.

One of the biggest problems in smoke control systems for high-rise buildings is stack effect, but there are no recognized methods or measures to solve the problem of stack effect as yet. The stack effect can be overcome by forming the uprising current inside the stair hall properly, but there is a limit to the height in supplying into the stair hall the smoke control air volume to be supplied to a floor in case of escape from fire. The limit to the height can be extended by over-coming the stack effect by pressurizing the stair hall and the ancillary room simultaneously. It can also be anticipated that the stack effect can be overcome by connecting the air supply shaft to the stair hall at the top. As a result of computer simulations using a network type of tool, it is found that adequate performance can be achieved by pressurizing the stair hall only for a building of 190m or less, and up to 360m when pressurizing the stair hall and the ancillary room simultaneously. In all those cases, however, an overpressure venting damper is required which operates within a suitable range for venting the overpressure outside.
