When a fire accident accompanied by an explosion occurs, the surrounding firewalls are affected by impact and thermal loads. Damaged firewalls due to accidental loads may not fully perform their essential function. Therefore, this paper proposes an advanced methodology for evaluating the fire resistance performance of firewalls damaged by explosions. The fragments were assumed to be scattered, and fire occurred as a vehicle exploded in a large compartment of a roll-on/roll-off (RO-RO) vessel. The impact velocity of the fragments was calculated based on the TNT equivalent mass corresponding to the explosion pressure. Damage and thermal-structural response analyses of the firewall were performed using Ansys LS-DYNA code. The fire resistance reduction was analyzed in terms of the temperature difference between fire-exposed and unexposed surfaces, temperature increase rate, and reference temperature arrival time. The degree of damage and the fire resistance performance of the firewalls varied significantly depending on impact loads. When naval ships and RO-RO vessels that carry various explosive substances are designed, it is reasonable to predict that the fire resistance performance will be degraded according to the explosion characteristics of the cargo.

본 연구에서는 화재로 인한 피해에 영향을 주는 여러 요인들에 대한 사전 연구를 살펴보고, 주요 화재피해 결정요인에 대한 모델을 만들고 지역환경 요소와 화재피해요소의 변수를 선정하여 상호인과관계 모형을 정립하였다. 모델의 유효성을 검증하기 위하여 228개의 시군구 자치단체별로 공표된 통계를 선정하여, 화재피해에 대한 4개의 종속변수와 22개의 독립변수를 선정하여 검증을 하였다. 독립변수는 인적 취약성, 물리적 취약성, 경제적 취약성 및 경감요소와 지역의 특성으로 구분하여 구성하였다. 선택된 변수의 상관관계를 분석하기 위하여 준로그 모형을 적용하여 회귀분석을 수행하였다. 22개의 독립변수 중에서 만명당 재난약자수, 만명당 제조업 종사주수, 만명당 연료소매업 종사자수, 만명당 음식 요식업 종사자수는 화재의 발생건수와 유의미한 상관관계를 보여주었으며, 이와는 달리 화재로 인한 사망자수는 만명당 사회복지사수와 상업지구비율과 유의미한 상관관계를 보였다. 이외에 화재로 인한 경제적 손실값을 설명하는 변수로는 만명당 부과된 재산세가 유의미한 변수로 도출되었다. 단순히 인구와 면적으로 소방에 필요한 자원을 배분하지 않고 피해에 영향을 주는 변수를 고려해야 할 것으로 사료되며 이 결과물은 화재예방정책과 화재안전을 제고하는 데 기여할 것으로 기대된다.

In the worst case, a temporary ignition source (also known as transient combustibles) between two electrical panels can damage both panels. Mitigation strategies for electrical panel fires were previously developed using fire modeling and risk analysis. However, since they do not comply with deterministic fire protection requirements, it is necessary to analyze the boundary values at which combustibles may damage targets depending on various factors. In the present study, a sensitivity analysis of input variables related to the damage threshold of two electrical panels was performed for dimensionless geometry using a Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS). A new methodology using a damage evaluation map was developed to assess the damage of the electrical panel. The input variables were the distance between the electrical panels, the vertical height of the fuel, the size of the fire, the wind speed and the wind direction. The heat flux was determined to increase as the vertical distance between the fuel and the panel decreased, and the largest heat flux was predicted when the vertical separation distance divided by one half flame length was 0.3-0.5. As the distance between the panels increases, the heat flux decreases according to the power law, and damage can be avoided when the distance between the fuel and the panel is twice the length of the panel. When the wind direction is east and south, to avoid damage to the electrical panel the distance must be increased by 1.5 times compared to no wind. The present scale model can be applied to any configuration where combustibles are located between two electrical panels, and can provide useful guidance for the design of redundant electrical panels.

오래전부터 화재 예방을 위한 여러 가지 포스터 및 광고 등으로 화재의 위험성을 지속적으로 알리고 있다. 이렇게 화재를 경고하는 이유는 화재의 피해가 크기 때문이다. 더불어 2차 피해가 발생한다면 피해 규모가 더욱 커질 것이다. 본 연구에서는 열 감지센서에 일정온도의 값을 설정하고 그 값 이상으로 올라간다면 자동으로 전력을 차단시키는 자동 전력차단기를 설계할 것이다. 본 연구를 통하여 화재 2차 피해를 최소화 시킬 수 있을 것이다.

Heat transfer analysis and thermal stress analysis for the concrete bridge was performed in order to investigate the damage of the concrete bridge by the fire of the vehicle. Changes in material properties, such as thermal conductivity, specific heat, density, elasticity, caused by temperature rise were considered. Heat transfer analysis and thermal stress analysis were performed according to the various location of the fire by ABAQUS. From the comparison of the numerical results, the degree of structural damage for the concrete bridge was investigated and considerations for the design of a concrete bridge against fire were identified.

산불에 대한 피해액과 피해 면적은 전 세계적으로 커지고 있지만 피해 후 복원 방법에 따른 효과연구는 부족한 현실이다. 본 연구는 Sentinel-2B 위성 영상과 임상도를 활용하여 산불 피해 면적을 산출하고, 임상에 따른 산불 피해 강도를 분석하였다. 또한, 다양한 파장대를 활용하여 식생지수를 계산하고, 이를 토대로 복원 방법에 따른 식생 회복력을 -1.0에서 1.0 범위 내에서 정량적으로 분석하였다. 그 결과 침엽수림 비율이 높은 지역에서 높은 강도의 산불 피해가 발생하였고, 상대적으로 혼효림과 활엽수림의 비율이 높은 지역에서 낮은 강도의 산불 피해 경향을 보였다. 산불 발생 이후 인공림과 천연림에서의 식생 회복률을 분석한 결과, 인공림은 산불 발생 이전 대비 약 92%, 천연림은 약 101% 식생을 회복하였으며 인공림보다 천연림에서 식생 회복력이 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 임상에 따른 산불 피해 강도를 분석하고 복원 방법에 따른 식생 회복력을 평가함으로써 산불 피해를 줄이기 위한 수목 선정에 기초자료를 제공하고 복원방법에 따른 식생회복력을 비교하는데 의의가 있다.

When performing fire PSA in a nuclear power plant, an event mapping method, using an internal event PSA model, is widely used to reduce the resources used by fire PSA model development. Feasible initiating events and component failure events due to fire are identified to transform the fault tree (FT) for an internal event PSA into one for a fire PSA using the event mapping method. A surrogate event or damage term method is used to condition the FT of the internal PSA. The surrogate event or the damage term plays the role of flagging whether the system/component in a fire compartment is damaged or not, depending on the fire being initiated from a specified compartment. These methods usually require explicit states of all compartments to be modeled in a fire area. Fire event scenarios, when using explicit identification, such as surrogate or damage terms, have two problems: (1) there is no consideration of multiple fire propagation beyond a single propagation to an adjacent compartment, and (2) there is no consideration of simultaneous fire propagations in which an initiating fire event is propagated to multiple paths simultaneously. The present paper suggests a fire propagation equation to identify all possible fire event scenarios for an explicitly treated fire event scenario in the fire PSA. Also, a method for separating fire events was developed to make all fire events a set of mutually exclusive events, which can facilitate arithmetic summation in fire risk quantification. A simple example is given to confirm the applicability of the present method for a $2{\times}3$ rectangular fire area. Also, a feasible asymptotic approach is discussed to reduce the computational burden for fire risk quantification.

Recently, advanced countries assessment the risk of fire to prevent large-scale damage to high-rise buildings, In addition, performance-Based design, which is a fire risk assessment, is being conducted in Korea to prevent massive damage to high-rise buildings. However, unlike advanced countries, fire risk assessment in Korea is subject to fire risk assessment only for objects subject to consent from fire-fighting facilities such as building permits, When building engineers and fire-fighting engineers assessment the risk of fire, It has always been discussed because the results vary depending on which part of the evaluation is focused between economic feasibility and safety. Therefore, in this study, we would like to propose a fire risk assessment process suitable for domestic conditions by comparing the process of performance-based design, which is a domestic fire risk assessment, and the process of Iso/TC 16732 which is an overseas fire risk assessment.

본 연구에서는 위험물안전관리법상 제4류 위험물에 해당하는 벤젠을 대상 물질로 선정하여 항만시설의 하역 과정에서 화재 및 누출사고가 발생하는 경우 가상의 시나리오를 통해 "독성(Toxic)"과 "액면화재(Pool fire)"에 대한 피해 규모를 정량적으로 평가하고자 하였다. 평가방법은 국내 화학물질안전원에서 범용프로그램으로 지원하는 KORA 프로그램을 활용하였으며, 벤젠의 화재 및 누출사고에 대한 피해영향 범위를 예측한 결과 독성으로 인한 피해 범위의 경우 누출공의 크기가 감소함에 따라 "최악의 사고시나리오" 대비 사고 피해영향 범위가 최대 5.11%까지 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었으며, 누출시간에 대한 피해영향 범위의 경우 누출시간 5 min 대비 10 min에서 145.12% 증가하였으며 20 min에서는 212.29%로 증가하였다. 또한, 액면화재로 인한 피해의 경우 "최악의 사고시나리오"에서 복사열에 의한 피해영향 범위는 취급시설을 중심으로 반경 228.8 m로 나타났으며, "대안의 사고시나리오"의 경우 복사열에 의한 피해영향 범위는 누출공의 크기가 배관 단면적이 감소함에 따라 "최악의 사고시나리오" 대비 사고 피해영향 범위가 최대 8.26%까지 감소하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.
