The current status of Performance-Based Design (PBD) implemented in 4 wide areas (Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon and Busan) over the past 5 years was reviewed with regard to the number of PBD implementation and target buildings. Then, detailed status related to fire scenarios, input information for fire simulation, and grid size were analyzed with the pre-review for the PBD. As a result, the domestic PBD was mainly applied to the mixed occupancy. In the fire simulations performed on the identical fire scenario and fire space, the maximum heat release rate (HRR) varied significantly depending on the PBD designer. Various combustibles were also considered for the identical fire source, and their combustion properties also showed considerable uncertainty. In addition, the applicability of accurate input information for predictive models of heat and smoke detectors was examined. Finally, the average grid size for the fire simulation using Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) was analyzed, and the improvement of PBD to minimize designer dependency was proposed.

Fire inside light railway transit(LRT) was simulated for various fire scenarios using CFD analysis in order to assess the safety of passengers. Considered in the present paper are the effects of locations of fire, a fire size, an operation of ventilation system and an opening time of door on evolution of temperature and smoke concentration inside the LRT. For fire simulation, fire cells releasing heat and smoke corresponding to fire size were positioned at the location of fire. From the results, it is seen that the ventilation system and the opening time of door were the most important factors on temperature and smoke concentration inside the LRT

This study discribes characteristics of water spray for extinguishment of gasoline fire. Experiments are carried out for the gasoline pool fire nth the atomizing nozzles. Droplet size, spray pressure, amount of water which reaches the flame base and velocity of water spray are measured to find extinguishment conditions. Air entrainment due to the water spray and extinguishing process of gasoline fire by water spray are visualized. Boundary conditions of water spray for extinguishment of gasoline pool fire is quantitatively shown. As the result of experiments, it is found that the velocity of entrainment air and sprayed water are almost same and the water droplets size having small diameter under 40$\mu\textrm{m}$ can not extinguish the fire because too small droplets does not reach the fuel surface.

Even though the fire performance-based design concept has been introduced for various structures and buildings, which have their own specific fire performance level, the uncertainties of input parameters always exist and, then, could reduce significantly the reliability of the fire modeling. Sensitivity analysis was performed with three limited input parameters, HRRPUA, type of combustible materials, and mesh size, which are significantly important for fire modeling. The output variables are limited to the maximum HRR, the time reaching the reference temperature($60^{\circ}C$), and that to reach limited visible distance(5 m). In addition, correlation coefficient analysis was attempted to analyze qualitatively and quantitatively the degree of relation between input and output variables above. Finally, the relationship among the three variables is also analyzed by the principal component analysis (PCA) to systematically analyze the input data bias. Sensitivity analysis showed that the type of combustible materials is more sensitive to maximum HRR than the ignition source and mesh size. However, the heat release parameter of the ignition source(HRR) is shown to be much more sensitive than the combustible material types and mesh size to both time to reach the reference temperature and that to reach the critical visible distance. Since the derived results can not exclude the possibility that there is a dependency on the fire model applied in this study, it is necessary to generalize and standardize the results of this study for the fire models such as various buildings and structures.

본 연구에서는 대구에 위치한 G 지하생활공간을 대상으로 화재하중에 따른 화재성상을 분석하였다. 화재성상 예측시 화재온도나 화재지속시간을 좌우하는 인자인 화재하중 및 환기계수를 파악하기 위하여, 현장방문을 통하여 가연조건을 조사하고 실의 용도별 가연조건에 대하여 각 재료의 단위발열량을 이용하여 화재하중을 산정하였다. 또한, 산정된 실의 화재하중을 변수로 화재성상분석을 위한 6가지 모델의 축소실험을 행하고 화원의 시간에 따른 온도변화와 화원의 온도상승으로 인한 공간내부로의 열유동 분포를 중심으로 화재성상을 분석하였다.

This paper presents the results of fire resistance properties of high performance concrete varying with fiber kinds and the size of metal lath in order to verify the validities of fiber on the spatting resistance by fire. Metal lath, glass fiber and carbon fiber are used to confine the concrete. According to test results, plain concrete without lateral confinement and confined concrete with glass fiber and carbon fiber show entire failure after exposed to fire, while confined concrete with metal lath take place in the form of slight surface spatting by fire, which has favorable spatting resistance of concrete. As for the effect of the size of metal lath, when the size of metal lath is more than 1.2mm of thickness, the residual strength of concrete exposed to fire maintains more than 80% of its original strength. However, glass fiber and carbon fiber does not perform desirable spatting resistance by fire due to loss of lateral confinement of fiber exposed to fire caused by melting of fiber and reducing bond strength between concrete and fiber.

Study on the analysis of sodium spray fire using Gaussian drop size distribution, which redistributes a droplet spectrum with given mean diameter if its size classes with critical diameter(D>8mm) occur, was carried out. In this case, the oversized droplets were reduced to a stable diameter. Results calculated by the code using Gaussian drop size distribution were in better agreement with AI experimental results than those of NACOM and SPRAY code. The effect of variance on pressure in the test cell appeared greatly by introducing Gaussian function, which could represent various sodium droplet size distribution. The increase of the variance with mean droplet size resulted had an important effect upon the pressure in the test cell.

본 논문은 미세물분무 작동에 따른 화재 거동 및 제압 특성을 예측하는 데 있어서 FDS(Fire Dynamic Simulator)의 예측 성능을 평가하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 미세물분무의 초기액적분포 입력을 위해 Rosin-Rammler /log-normal 분포를 사용하였으며 모델 상수의 영향을 살펴보았다. 또한 미세물분무의 분사압력에 따른 화재 제압특성을 이전의 실험 결과와 비교함으로써 해석 모델을 검증하고 열유동 특성 및 가스 농도 변화를 분석하였다. 결과로부터 동일한 평균입경을 갖는 미세물분무도 액적분포의 특성에 따라 하부 위치에서의 액적 크기 및 속도에 큰 영향을 받고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 분무특성에 대한 실험결과와의 비교를 통해 적절한 초기입경분포를 결정하였으며 이를 이용하여 화재 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. FDS 화재 시뮬레이션 결과는 온도의 변화 및 화재 제압 특성에 대하여 실험 결과와 좋은 일치를 보여주었다. 또한 미세물분무의 작동압력에 따른 열유동장 변화, 가스상 농도 변화의 예측에 있어 유용한 데이터를 제공할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

목조한옥은 가연성의 재질로 구성되어 있어 화재라는 측면에서 취약하며, 방화의 경우 화재의 성상 초기부터 화원의 규모가 다양하게 나타날 수 있다. 본 연구는 국내 목조문화재의 화재 소화에 적용하고 있는 저압의 미분무 소화시스템의 소화성능을 확인하기 위하여 소화실험을 수행하였다. 소화실험의 유형은 화원의 규모별 및 한옥의 규모별로 구분하였고 소화시간을 확인하여 소훼의 정도를 평가하였다. 실험결과 소화성능이 문화재 규모에서 중요한 차이는 없었으며, 화원의 규모가 0.5단위 이하의 작은 화재에 대하여 소화효과가 나타났고, 화원의 규모가 1단위 이상에서는 소화능력이 현저히 부족하였다. 실제 목조문화재의 화재 성장 환경이 소화실험 모형보다 취약하다는 측면을 고려해볼 때, 미분무 소화설비를 목조한옥에 대한 범용 자동소화설비로 적용하기 위하여 소화성능 면에서 충분한 검증이 요구된다.

In order to investigate the smoke movement in three dimensional room fires, the center fire, wall fire and corner fire plume in different sized fires were studied experimentally by rectangular pool fire using methanol as a fuel. As the fire size became larger for the center fires placed at the center of the floor, the air flow rate entrained through the opening, average hot layer temperature, flame angle deflected backwards and mean flame height was observed to increase. On the other hand, as the fire size became smaller, the neutral plane height in the door and time reached steady-state was observed to decrease. The average hot layer temperature, mean flame height and doorway neutral plane height obtained from comer fire were higher than those produced by wall fires and center fires. The simple model for describing the effect of walls on the mean flame height was presented. It was shown that the model provides a good description of the present measurements, when used with the assumption by Hansell(1993), that the increase of the average flame height is equal to the ratio of the open to the total perimeters of the trays. Also the two models for predicting the effects of walls on the mean flame height were presented. These models overestimated the measured values of the mean flame height above fuel trays close to a wall and in a corner by approximately 19-26%, respectively.
