Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the assertive behavior of asking smokers not to smoke and investigate the factors related to assertive behavior in patients with vascular diseases. Methods: Participants were 203 adult Korean patients with vascular diseases such as cerebral infarction and myocardial infarction. Data were collected using questionnaires that included the characteristics of secondhand smoke (SHS), secondhand smoke-related variables (Health belief model factors, health promotion model factors) and level of assertive behavior. Descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA and multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 18.0 were performed. Results: Participants who never ask smokers not to smoke was 39.9%, whereas participants who always ask was 7.4%. There was a weak positive relationship between assertive behavior and susceptibility to disease (r=.18), severity of disease (r=.19), benefit of assertive behavior to SHS exposure (r=.10), barrier of assertive behavior to SHS exposure (r=.24), and self-rated health (r=.21) respectively. There was a moderate positive relationship between assertive behavior and self-efficacy of assertive behavior to SHS exposure (r=.49). Health belief model factors explained 15.7% variance and health promotion model factors explained 27.0% of assertive behavior. Conclusion: The findings of this study suggest that self-efficacy of assertive behavior to SHS exposure is a very important factor. Therefore the development of a program to foster self-efficacy of assertive behavior regarding SHS exposure in patients with vascular diseases is needed.

부분배연설비를 가지고 있는 침매터널에서 화재시 배연효율을 분석하기위해 풀화재를 이용하여 축소모형실험을 수행하였다. 화재가 발생하였을 때 주위 유동이 없는 경우인 자연배연과 임계속도로 제트팬을 가동하는 강제배연의 경우에 터널내의 온도와 연소가스 농도를 측정하였다. 자연배연에 비해 강제배연은 화재발생 초기에 화원과 터널 내 기류와의 급격한 혼합에 의해 성층화 정도가 미미해지고 보다 낮은 온도를 화원주위에서 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 급격한 혼합은 터널 상부에 위치한 부분제연 갤러리의 효율을 변화시키는데, 자연배연인 경우에 약 30%의 배연효율이 증가되었다. 일산화탄소 농도계측으로 얻어진 배연효율은 등온기체모델을 사용한 선행연구와 비교하여 거의 일치하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 침매터널 화재시 승객의 안전한 대피를 위한 부분배연설비의 최적 운전방안으로 제시된다.

본 논문에서는 경륜장 내부에서의 열전달과 연기성장 특성에 대한 수치적 연구를 수행하였다. 화재발생 부분의 속도 및 온도는 플롬 모델로 구하여 졌으며, 난류유동 특성을 예측하기 위하여 표준 $textsc{k}$-$\varepsilon$ 난류모델이 사용되었다. 본 연구에서는 경륜장 내부에서 화재 발생에 따른 열적 거동과 연기 분포를 보았으며 이러한 결과는 화재방재 설계에 있어 유용한 자료로 이용될 수 있다.

본 연구는 구난역을 갖는 철도 터널 내에서 화재가 발생하였을 때 연기 전파 특성에 미치는 배연효과를 다루고 있다. 터널 화재 실험은 4cm의 정사각형 형태의 n-heptane$(C_7H_{16})$ 풀화재(pool fires)에 대해서 수행되었고 다양한 화재 발생위치에 따른 발열량을 측정하였다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 상용코드인 Fluent(Ver.6.3)를 사용하여 구난역을 갖는 철도 터널 내의 연층 전파 특성을 분석하였으며, MVHS(Modified Volumetric Heat Source) 모델을 사용하여 화재에 의한 연소생성물의 농도 및 거동을 예측하였다. 해석 조건은 다양한 화재 발생 위치에 따라서 측정 된 발열량을 이용하였다. 본 연구를 통해 교행로 내에 위치한 방화문에 의해 비사고터널로의 확산을 막을 수 있음을 보였고 특히, 배연시스템의 가동을 통해 유동방향을 변화시킴으로써 사고터널내의 연기 확산을 제어할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The present study investigates the effect of balcony on external smoke movement of high rise building through the fire tests of the 1/10 reduced model scale using Froude scaling. A hexane pool fire is used to examine the smoke movement for various opening sizes of balcony and temperature distributions are measured by T-type thermocouples. Also, hydrogen bubble technique is applied to visualize the smoke movement near the balcony. Measured temperatures of the closed balcony is 2.5 times higher than those of the open balcony because the external smoke in case of the closed balcony rise along the vertical wall. The maximum vertical temperature of partially closed balcony is similar with fully closed balcony and mean temperature inside of balcony increases as opening size of balcony decreases. The experimental results show that the balcony space plays an important roles in preventing fire propagation and cooling of smoke layer. In order to ensure the fire safety in high rise building design, a series of systematic researches are required to examine the various type of balconies.

In foreign country such as U.S.A and Japan, considerable research has been done regarding the spread of smoke in room of fire involvement by using computer. But, in our country it has not been. So, this paper presents a detailed qualitative description of phenomena which occures during typical fire scenarios through numerical analysis. This research, in the view of field model, is focused on finding out the smoke movement and temperature distribution. And it is planned to analyze governing equation including smoke diffusion equation by numerical analysis with finite volume method and non-staggered grid system. The SIMPLE method for pressure-velocity couple and power-law scheme for convection terms are used. It shows that a plume is formed, hot plume is formed, hot plume gases impinge on the ceiling and they spread across it. then, it eventually reaches the bounding walls of the enclosure. It takes 60s for smoke to fill the enclosure.

In this study, the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been used to analyze the smoke movement and the carbon monoxide concentration distribution, both vertically and longitudinally, in a compartment, based on conservation laws. The Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) developed by National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) was used for numerical simulations using Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS) model to solve for time-averaged properties. Results show, as a function of time, a detailed distribution of temperature and carbon monoxide concentration changing against the height above the floor and those changes alongside the distance away from the fire source. Fire-induced smoke and toxic gases like CO are more dangerous in a confined space. The result of study may contribute in designing the smoke evacuation system based on the precise tenable condition.

This study aims to derive the operation method of a comprehensive ventilation system which is capable of providing passengers with safe exit paths from platforms in onboard fire situations. To accomplish this, the airflow distributions in subway platforms under 6 types of tunnel vent system were calculated in addition to having analyzed diffusion behaviors of smoke and heat exhaust in such states by performing 6 kinds of different ventilation scenarios in a 3-D Fire Dynamic Simulation (FDS) simulation model. In order to recommend the mechanical smoke exhaust operation mode, Subway Environmental Simulation(SES) is used to predict the airflow of the inlet and outlet tunnel for the subway station to clarify the safety evaluation fir the heat and smoke exhaust on subway fire events.

Smoke is one of the most critical factor when escaping from the fire since it reduces visibility and interrupts finding emergency exit lights. Therefore, it is recommended that an evacuation simulation program should incorporate the smoke factor. In addition, it is suggested that the program should include not only the unilateral damage by the smoke but also the detour evacuation by risk communication. In this study, MAS (Multi Agent System)-based simulation program which incorporates the reduced walking speed by smoke and adopts the dispersion evacuation logic during escaping from the fire. To make comparison, a commercial evacuation program, Pathfinder was used. It was found that the simulation results of MAS (Multi Agent System)-based program is better than Pathfinder in terms of safe evacuation. It means that evacuation simulation need a additional evaluation categories that include not only quick evacuation time but also safe evacuee number.

Atrium buildings are commonly found in Hong Kong since 1980. Those spaces are usually crowded with people and so fire protection systems have to be installed for providing a safe environment. Smoke control system was identified to be important but no clear design guidelines are available because the smoke filling process was not well-understood. In this paper., Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) or fire field model is applied to study the smoke filling pattern in atrium. Two common cases on smoke spreading out from a shop adjacent to the atrium; and with a fire located at the atrium floor itself were considered. Simulations with a modified form of the CFD package TEAM were performed. Application of the predicted results Is illustrated.
