In this study, combustibles investigation and fire growth rate experiment were performed for predicting initial fire behavior in buildings. Combustibles investigation was performed for residential buildings, which is most frequently affected by fire in Korea. Spatial characteristics and combustibles properties were separately investigated, and occupied area and layout characteristics of combustibles were identified to produce general layout models. Of the layout models, room was selected for fire test of a single compartment. From this test, fire propagation for each combustible was identified, which was delayed compared to the summed heat release rate of a single combustible.

In this study, a numerical sensitivity analysis was performed to determine the fire suppression time for a large number of water mist nozzles in a large fire compartment. Fire simulations were performed using FDS (Fire dynamics simulator) 6.5.2 under the same condition as the test scenario 5 of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) 1165 test protocol. The sensitivities of input parameters including cell size, extinguishing coefficient (EC), droplets per second (DPS), and peak heat release rate (HRR) of fuel were investigated in terms of the normalized HRR and temperature distribution in the compartment. A new method of determining the fire suppression time using FDS simulation was developed, based on the concept of the cut-off time by cut-off value (COV) of the heat release rate per unit volume (HRRPUV) and the cooling time by the HRR cooling time criteria value (CTCV). In addition, a method was developed to determine the average EC value for the simulation input, using the cooling time and cut-off time.

본 연구는 구획공간화재에서 화재특성과 위치에 따른 공간내부의 열유속 특성을 파악하기 위해 ISO-9705 표준화재실의 40 % 크기로 축소된 공간에서 화재 실험을 수행하였다. 열유속의 측정은 Schimit-Boelter type 열유속계를 이용하였으며 화재실의 내부와 출입구쪽의 중앙바닥면에서 열유속이 각각 측정되었다. 실험에 사용된 연료는 천연가스, 헵탄, 톨루엔, 에탄올, 폴리스틸렌 등이다. 실험결과 화재발열량과 상층부의 온도가 증가함에 따라 화재실 내부 바닥에서의 열유속이 출입구쪽에 비해 상대적으로 높게 나타났다. 또한 그을음의 생성이 많은 연료일수록 화재실 바닥면에서 열유속의 공간적인 편차가 상대적으로 크게 나타났다. 본 연구를 통해 공간내 하층부에서의 열유속 분포는 화재가 성장함에 따라 화염 및 상층부에서 방출되는 복사열과 밀접한 관계가 있고 이는 상층부의 온도뿐만 아니라 연소가스의 조성이나 그을음 농도(soot concentration), 환기조건 등과 같은 화재특성에 크게 영향을 받는다는 사실을 파악하였다.

The present study has been performed to investigate the thermal characteristics of under-ventilated compartment fire which is a typical fire condition in structures. A series of fire experiments was conducted to characterize the thermally driven flow in a 2/5 scale ISO 9705 fire compartment. Three different fuels were used in this test series, methane gas, heptane pool, and polystyrene pellets fire. In order to measure accurate temperature, double shield aspirated thermocouples reducing the effect of radiative energy exchange on temperature measurement were used in addition to bare bead thermocouples. The upper layer temperature for well ventilated fire was increased with increasing heat release rate, but it was slightly decreased for under-ventilated fire. The measured temperatures in the upper layer at the front sampling location were higher than at the rear. Thermal characteristics through the doorway were also analysed for a wide range of heat release rates. This study provides a comprehensive and quantitative assessment of fire behavior for under-ventilation condition of fire.

We have derived the general transfer equation for governing the continuity, energy transfer, mass and momentum transfer, and turbulent energy dissipation rate within the fire compartment which has the 800t fire source at the center of the floor. The governing transfer equations have been descretized using the finite volume approach and numerically experimented under the SIMPLE algorithm. In order for the SIMPLE algorithm approach to be physically reliable, the test results are compared with those of Morita's SOR Method using Conjugate Residual Method and found to be close to physical values though the computational convergence time still remains to be upgraded. The treatment of source terms in the system of finite difference equations has been critical in order to converge the governing equations within the appropriate time steps. The criteria of convergence allowance for the whole domain have been checked and the sudden change of the non-linear effects from the source term have been avoided. The criteria has been allowed to be for 5$\times$10$^{-5}$ .

본 연구는 실제 화재실험을 통하여 구획 화재 시 일어날 수 있는 창유리의 파괴 형태 및 시간 그리고 개구 조건과의 관계 등을 고찰하고자 했다. 화재 시 창유리의 파괴현상은 창호 유리 중간 부분과 프레입 안에 있는 유리부분의 현저한 온도차이로 인한 열웅력으로 일어남을 확인했다. 실험 1-3은 프레엄 내부와 유리면의 온도차가 233.4$^{\circ}C$ 였으며, 실험 2-1은 138$^{\circ}C$, 실험 2-2는 83.6$^{\circ}C$의 차이를 보였다. 파괴 발생 시 실내의 온도는 실험 2-1의 경우 434.4$^{\circ}C$, 실험 2-2는 83.6$^{\circ}C$의 차이 를 보였다. 파괴 발생 시 실내의 온도는 실험 2-1의 경우 434.4$^{\circ}C$, 실험 2-2는 440.6$^{\circ}C$ 실험 2-3 은 400.9$^{\circ}C$를 기록하여 화염이 직접 닿지 않는 경우의 균열은 400-50$0^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 발생한다. 화재로 인한 창유리(한글라스 플로탱 유리)는 1541.14kW의 화재에 노출되었을 시 열웅력에 의한 파괴가 일어나기는 하나 유리면이 파괴에 의해 개구부가 되지 않는다.

The present work reports on a numerical simulation of a compartment fire. The fire was modeled using a simplified approach, where combustion is simulated as a volumetric heat release. Computations were performed with the commercial code CFX 5.6. Radiation was modeled with a differential approximation (P1 model), while turbulence effects upon the mean gas flow were dealt with a SST turbulence model. Simulations were carried out using a transient approach, starting at the onset of ignition. Results are provided for the temperature field time evolution, thus allowing a direct comparison with the analytical and experimental data. The high spatial resolution available for the results proved to be of great utility for a more detailed analysis of the thermal impact on the steel structure.

To evaluate the usability of compartment fire models for predicting sprinkler response time, fire experiment was conducted and measured sprinkler response time. The experimental data was compared with zone model "FASTLite"and field model "FDS"and field Model "SMARTFIRE" A Compartment fire conducted in a 2.4 m by 3.6 m by 2.4 m ISO 9705 room and measured H.R.R was approximately 100.3 kW. In test, Sprinkler activation temperature used is $72^{\circ}c$ and responded at 198s. The output of FASTLite, SMARTFIRE and, FDS for this fire scenario were 209s, 183s, and 192s, respectively. As a results, prediction using FDS model approached to that of test very closely and other models showed good approximated results also.

Flame spread and heat release properties and incident heat flux of interior materials subject to an igniter heat flux in a compartment are investigated and compared by using computer model. A comer fire ignition source is maintained for 10 minutes at 100 kw and subsequently increased to 300kw. In executing the model, base-line material properties are selected and one is changed for each run. Also 4 different igniter heat flux conditions and examined. Results are compared for the 12 different materials tested by the ISO Room Comer Test (9705). The time for total energy release rate to reach 1MW is examined. The parameters considered include flame heat flux and thermal inertia, lateral flame spread parameter, heat of combustion and effective heat of gasfication. The model can show the importance of each property in causing fire growth on interior Hnish materials in a compartment. The effect of ignitor heat flux and material property effects were demonstrated by using dimensionless parameters a, b and Tb. Results show that for b greater than about zero, flashover time in the ISO Room-Corner test is principally proportional to ignition time and nothing more.
