  • Objectives : This study aims to organize the genealogy of the Ministerial Fire Theory in relation to Wangbing's Dragon Fire discourse through examining how Wang's Dragon Fire content first mentioned in the annotation of 『Suwen』 was included into the discourse of the Ministerial Fire Theory in explaining the concept of Ministerial Fire and its therapeutic application. Methods :First to examine the inclusion and application of the Dragon Fire concept into the Ministerial Fire Theory, Zhudanxi's theory and critiques on him were studied. Next the concept of Dragon Fire within the Ministerial Fire Theory was analyzed, followed by comparison between generations of doctors's therapeutic application of Ministerial Fire and Wangbing's Dragon Fire application. Conclusions & Results : Wangbing's dragon fire concept held an important position in discussing its characteristic as fire within water, which was adopted and differentiated by later doctors in aspects of pathology, deficiency and excessiveness, influenced by various theoretical elements of later periods. In the midst of expansion of the concept from combination of dragon fire and ministerial fire, the therapeutic aspect of it was maintained from Wangbing's original mentioning. This tendency manifested in either awkward combination of Wang's therapeutic methods and the new theory or modification of Wangbing's methods.

  • This study analyzed the working conditions and problems of screen fire shutters in the Goyang Bus Terminal fire based on the fire investigation results. At that time, screen fire shutters in the 1st basement, which was under construction, did not work because the power was shut off. Four screen fire shutters in the 1st and 3rd floor did not work despite the power not being shut off. The following problems related to a screen fire shutter were found: shutting off the power to screen fire shutters for the fire compartment on each floor, even when the fire compartments were changed in each area; installing an integral type screen fire shutter without any regulations, installing a two-stage screen fire shutter in a place not related to obstacles during evacuation; stopping the function of the screen fire shutters for a fire compartment on each floor after a combustible sandwich panel was comparted; installing a screen fire shutter over 10 meters in width, in which its performance was not verified; and no safety control standards for reinstalling or maintaining a screen fire shutter.

  • The fire protection regulation for the nuclear power plants is based on the qualitative fire hazard assessment and the quantitative fire risk analysis, and the fire risk is managed by the fire protection plan with the appropriate balance among the fire prevention, fire suppression and the minimization of the fire effect. In these days, the zone model or the field model is generally used for the detail evaluation for the fire risk. At this paper, with consideration of the present trend, we evaluate whether the quantitative fire risk analysis and the assessment of fire result for fire areas at nuclear power plants can be possible by use of Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) that is the state-of-the-art fire modeling tool. Consequently, it is expected that the quantitative fire risk evaluation propelled by the fire modeling can be available as an applicable tool to improve the core damage frequency as well as the quantitative fire risk analysis.

  • For the past decade, South Korea had experienced catastrophic building fires, which resulted in consider-ably high number of casualties. This motivated research to develop fire-safe wall assemblies. In this study Fire Risk Analysis (FRA) is conducted as part of the project designing phase to ensure fire safety of the final product. Traditional approach was to consider fire performance at the end of the designing stage, when PASS/FAIL fire test results are required to be submitted to the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). By applying a fire risk analysis to guide the designing phase, overall fire safety of a wall assembly can be achieved more systematically as conducting FRA allows designers to clearly identify elements that are more vulnerable to fire and simply replace them with other practical options. Severity of fire risk is determined by considering the fire hazards of a wall assembly such as the exterior layer, insulation, vertical connectivity, and external ignition sources (e.g., photovoltaic panels). Frequency of fire risk is assessed based on the factors affecting fire likelihood, which are air cavity and fire-stopping applied in the design, and random design changes occurring during on-site construction. Fire risk matrix is proposed based on these fire risk factors and efforts to reduce the fire risk level associated with the wall assembly are given by systematically assessing the fire risk factors identified from fire risk analysis. Current study demonstrates how fire risk analysis can be applied to develop fire-safe walls by reducing the relevant fire risks- both severity and frequency.

  • This study presents on the analysis fire hazards of electric heater. In order to analyze fire hazards fire experiment is conducted. The fire experiment is conducted to simulate normal condition and abnormal condition. The abnormal condition experiment is simulated in which combustibles are placed near by electric heater. Vertical burning test(UL 94) is conducted for the fire retardant experiment. The results show that fire hazard is high in case of abnormal condition. And Material of electric heater has not fire retardant performance. In this paper, we suggest to add temperature fuse in electric heater for reducing fire hazard.

  • This study focused on the review of the korean fire investigation system and will provide the means for having the legal investigation right. The most important thing is to give fire department a perfect legal investigation right on fire including police areas(seeking and examining the case at first stage). And it should be stated in criminal law. With the joint effort between Fire department and Police department, we can develop the reformation, enlightening programs for the arsons or fire related criminals. Through this, it systematically have to be good for fire prevention and can be helpful to enhancing professionalism of fire examination.
