Building energy saving is one of the most important issues in these days. Energy saving control strategies should be developed properly to achieve the saving. One of such area we could apply is the HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning) system. Through the optimal control algorithm for building energy management system (EMS), you can not only save the cost of building energy, but also protect HVAC system components against the unexpected condition. In order to verify the effectiveness of building energy saving, field test was accomplished for several months at 'A' building. And to get the measured data, remote control was used. If the remote control is used in BAS (Building Automation System), control and monitoring can be done for all of the building systems, such as HVAC, power, lighting, security and fire-alarm etc. anywhere any time. Using the remote control, Control and monitoring is possible for the testing system without going there. As the results of field test, we could reduce $5{\sim}10\%$ of the building energy cost.

최근 문화재나 시설물 관리를 위한 화재 감시 응용 시스템에 대한 요구가 증대되고 있다. 이러한 화재 감시 시스템은 화재 상황을 대처할 수 있도록 지원함으로써 피해규모를 축소시킬 수 있다. 그러나 기존 시스템은 일정 주기로 화재 감시를 수행함으로써 화재 판단을 지연시키는 단점이 존재한다. 또한 감시 상황을 확인 할 수 있는 사용자 인터페이스를 제공하지 않는다. 따라서 이러한 두 가지 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 첫째, 조기 위험상황 경보를 위해 새로운 화재 판단 알고리즘(Early Fire Detection Algorithm)을 제안한다. 이는 데이터 분포를 기반으로 하여 화재 판단 시작 주기를 동적으로 설정하기 때문에, 화재 판단 시간 측면에서 기존 알고리즘 보다 우수하다. 둘째, 제안하는 화재 판단 알고리즘을 통하여 사용자 인터페이스를 제공하는 화재 감시 응용 시스템을 개발한다. 마지막으로 성능 실험을 통해, 개발된 시스템이 다양한 화재 상황에서 조기 위험상황 경보를 위해 활용될 수 있음을 보인다.

Forest fires inflict great losses of human lives and serious damages to ecological systems. Hence, numerous fire detection methods have been proposed, one of which is fire detection based on sensors. However, these methods reveal several limitations when applied in large spaces like forests such as high cost, high level of false alarm, limited battery capacity, and other problems. In this research, we propose a novel forest fire detection method based on image processing and correlation coefficient. Firstly, two fire detection conditions are applied in RGB color space to distinguish between fire pixels and the background. Secondly, the image is converted from RGB to YCbCr color space with two fire detection conditions being applied in this color space. Finally, the correlation coefficient is used to distinguish between fires and objects with fire-like colors. Our proposed algorithm is tested and evaluated on eleven fire and non-fire videos collected from the internet and achieves up to 95.87% and 97.89% of F-score and accuracy respectively in performance evaluation.

This paper presents the development of an electrical fire detection system using digital temperature and current detectors in order to sound for electrical fire in advance. As the demand for electricity is increasing and industrial facilities are getting more complex and larger in size, the losses of human life and property are on the increase by electrical fires. In order to prevent electrical fires, it is required to find out fire signatures, or electric signal of the overcurrent and overheating. Therefore, in this paper, developed is an electrical fire detection system based on the detection of signal for overcurrent and overheating to prevent electrical accidents in advance that happen in electrical wires. The developed system gives an alarm by computer monitor, speaker system and mobile phone before electrical fires occur and give severe damages to human beings and properties, and the system can be implemented and supplied for business and residental buildings at a low price. The usefulness and validity of the system, also, verified in this paper by case study and experiments.

This study is to check waterproof by number of twists of fire hose and measure the first waterproof time to analyze the relationship between twists of fire hose and first waterproof time and waterproof by position of twists so as to suggest the efficient plan to prevent twists of fire hose. Ordinary fire hose did not make waterproof in case that position of twists was near the nozzle with twists 5 times or more, while anti-twist fire hose had no problem for waterproof only with delayed time. Like ordinary fire hose, anti-twist fire hose also showed the tendency to increase the waterproof time in proportion to the number of twists. In case that the position of twists was near waterproof port even with 10 times of twists in anti-twist fire hose, the first waterproof time was increase by 0.63 seconds on average without any problem for waterproof, which was somewhat faster than that in ordinary fire hose. With respect to the position of twists, waterproof of anti-twist fire hose was affected more as the number of twists was increased more near the nozzle rather than near the waterproof port, like ordinary fire hose. In summary, anti-twist fire hose equipped with anti-twist tool at the middle connection port and the nozzle showed a good waterproof performance with delayed waterproof time regardless of number of twists, as a solution for the twist problem of ordinary fire hose.

본 연구에서는 FDS 프로그램을 사용하여 아파트 화재 사고에 대한 전산모사를 통하여 화재위험성을 평가하였다. 화재 전산모사 결과, 스프링클러 미 작동 시 최대 열방출율은 7,700kW로써 스프링클러 작동시 최대 열방출율 497kW의 약 16배이며, 화재실의 문 강제 개방 시 역화현상의 발생으로 화재위험은 매우 높게 나타났다. 화재실 온도의 위험도래시간과 감지기 작동 시간에 의한 재실자 피난 여유시간은 최소 32.5초와 최대 53.5초이다. 스프링클러 작동 시에는 냉각에 의한 화재제어로 아파트 실내의 화재위험은 낮아짐을 알 수 있었다. 본 아파트 화재사고의 전산모사 결과를 통하여 소화설비 및 비상방송설비의 정상작동이 화재안전에 얼마나 중요한 역할을 하는지, 그리고 작동 불능 시 얼마나 큰 피해 손실을 초래하는지에 대하여 알 수 있었다.

Today's urban transit system is regarded as the important public transportation service which saves passengers' time and provides the safety. Many researches focus on the rapid and protective responses that minimize the losses when dangerous situation occurs. In this paper we proposed the early fire detection and corresponding rapid response method in urban transit system by combining automatic fire detection for video input and the sensor system. The fire detection method consists of two parts, spark detection and smoke detection. At the spark detection, the RGB color of input video is converted into HSV color and the frame difference is obtained in temporal direction. The region with high R values is considered as fire region candidate and stepwise fire detection rule is applied to calculate its size. At the smoke detection stage, we used the smoke sensor network to secure the credibility of spark detection. The proposed system can be implemented at low prices. In the future work, we would improve the detection algorithm and the accuracy of sensor location in the network.

최근 국내 대형화재 발생으로 화재예방 및 소방에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있는 추세이다. 화재에 대한 피해를 최소화하기 위해서는 감지설비, 경보설비, 소화설비, 피난설비 및 유지관리 등 모든 요소가 중요하지만 화학공장과 같이 철골구조에 가연성 물질을 집중적으로 취급하는 시설에서는 화재 시 그 구조를 유지할 수 있도록 주요구조부에 적용하는 내화구조의 중요성이 특히 대두된다. 현재 건축법, 산업안전보건법 등 국내법에서는 산업시설에 대하여 일괄적으로 지상으로부터 6m까지 내화구조를 적용하도록 규정하고 있다. 하지만 화학공장은 경우에 따라 가연성 물질을 대량으로 취급할 수도 비가연성 물질만을 취급할 수도 있다. 이 연구에서는 화학공장에서 발생할 수 있는 화재 규모에 따라 필요한 내화구조 적용이 필요한 높이에 대하여 연구하였다.

The effects of different auditory warnings on response time and accuracy were studied in a laboratory ship-bridge work environment. Subjective preference on the type of auditory warnings was also of a primary concern. Twenty five subjects were asked to select an appropriate button for the warning sound presented with three types of auditory warning (abstract sound, auditory icon, and voice alarm) and five levels of warning situation (fire, steering failure, collision, engine failure, and low power). Results showed that the response time and accuracy was significantly affected by the types of auditory warning. The voice alarm resulted in a higher accuracy and subjective preference, as compared to the auditory icon and abstract sound. Regarding the response time, auditory icons and voice alarms were equivalent and superior to abstract sounds. Actual or potential applications of this research include guidelines for the design of integrated ship bridge systems.

화재조사 결과를 토대로 고양종합터미널 건물 화재 시 소방시설 작동 실태를 분석하였다. 분석결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 천장 우레탄폼에 불이 붙은 직후에 옥내소화전을 이용하여 진화할 수 있음에도 시도하지 않았다. 둘째, 지하1층 대수선공사 공간은 스프링클러 알람밸브를 잠가놓아 작동하지 않았지만, 지하2층과 지상1층, 지상2층, 지상3층은 스프링클러가 작동하여 지하1층 대수선공사 공간 이외의 층으로의 화재확산을 저지하였다. 셋째, 피난유도등은 정상 작동하였지만, 터미널 2층 대합실에서 승차장 쪽으로 통하는 출구(비상구)에 피난구유도등이 설치되어 있지 않아 터미널 2층에서 다수의 사상자가 발생하게 하는데 영향을 미쳤다. 넷째, 화재수신기에서 제연설비 배기 팬 제어반에 전기신호를 보냈지만 배기 팬의 제어반에서 수동으로 취급하여 터미널 2층 제연설비 배기 팬이 작동하지 않았다.
