  • In Korea, smoke control measures through NFSC 501 are proposed to reduce human casualties caused by smoke in the event of a fire. However, as a result of investigating and analyzing domestic and foreign standards, it was found that domestic regulations do not set fire source, but simply set smoke emissions by floor area or height of smoke boundary. Foreign regulations set fire source. Therefore, it is judged that it is necessary to review whether the current domestic regulations can be applied in the event of an actual building fire. So, this paper aims to identify the differences in domestic and foreign standards through investigation and analysis of related standards for fire zone smoke control system in each country and use them as basic data to improve the performance of zone smoke control system.

  • This study examined the effects of the wind conditions, such as wind velocity and wind directions, on the performance of the mechanical smoke exhaust systems for high-rise building fires. A scaled model design and CFD simulations were used to verify the effects both quantitatively and qualitatively. The results showed that the smoke exhaust velocity of the mechanical exhaust system can be reduced by up to 17% at a wind velocity of 5 m/s (equivalent to an outdoor wind speed of 16 m/s) and a wind direction of ${\theta}=5^{\circ}$. In addition, the angle of the outdoor wind direction below ${\theta}=25^{\circ}$ had a significantly influence on the smoke exhaust flow rate and reduced exhaust performance of the smoke exhaust system in a fire.

  • To prevent accidents caused by changes in the surrounding environment or other factors, various protection facilities are installed at the photovoltaic connection module. The main causes of fire are sparks due to foreign substances inside the photovoltaic connection module through high temperature rise and dew condensation in the photovoltaic connection module, and fire due to heat from the power diode. The proposed method can predict the fire by measuring flame, carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, temperature, humidity, input voltage, and current on the photovoltaic connection module, and when the fire conditions are reached, fire alarm and power off can be sent to managers and users in real time to prevent fire in advance.

  • The fire servant's three shift working system tried out from 2009, and the performance rate of the fire servant's three shift working system is currently 98%. The Domestic study on fire servant's three shift working system is very elementary and puerile level, and its study is almost zero. Accordingly, this study aimed to sort through problems and prior task of the three shift working system implementation, and to suggestion for effectiveness secure of Fire servant's three shift working system.

  • This paper concerns the application of smoke and fire spread to road tunnel fire problems. When a road tunnel is on fire. a fire protection system of road tunnel have to offer an adequate escape space to human. Therefore, this study carried out a simulation for predicting a spreading path of smoke and fire. The evolution of the flow field is simulated with the low Reynolds number k-$\varepsilon$ turbulent model and SIMPLE algorithm based on the finite volume method.

  • In this research, safety requirements for guard rail, buffer stop, car stop scotch block, protection device, fire protection facilities, safety siding, escape facilities and inundation protection facilities are studied to establish a standard. First, various kinds of guard rails and their construction methods are investigated. Researches on the level difference of main track and guard rail, joint, length, and fastening force of guard rail are done. Second, the classification of buffer stop and car stop scotch block and its characteristics are examined, and the impact force, speed limit and capacity of buffer stop are summarized. Details of protection device, fire protection facilities, safety siding, escape facilities and inundation protection facilities are also investigated. From this fundamental research results, basic data on the safety facilities of railroad system are established.
