In this experiments, smoke filling behaviors in a large space were investigated. Also, it found that the smoke filling time can be predicted with a simplified zone model. Thermocouples were used to measure the temperature of the hot gases layer and also later to determine the smoke layer depth. Height markers were also hung from the roof so that observers could visibly assess the smoke layer depth.

This paper describes the smoke filling process of a fire field model based on a self-deve-loped SMEP (Smoke Movement Estimating Program) code to the simulation of fire induced flows in the two types of atrium space containing a ceiling heat flux. The SMEP using PISO algorithm solves conservation equations for mass, momentum, energy and species, together with those for the modified k-$\varepsilon$ turbulence model with buoyancy production term. Also it solves the radiation equation using the discrete ordinates method. Compressibility is assumed and the perfect gas law is used. Comparison of the calculated upper-layer average tempera-ture and smoke layer clear height with the zone models has shown reasonable agreement. The zone models used are the CFAST and the NBTC one-room. For atrium fires with ceiling glass the ceiling heat flux by solar heat causes a high smoke temperature near the ceiling. However, it has no effect on the smoke movement such as the smoke layer clear heights that are important in fire safety. In conclusion, the smoke layer clear heights that are important in evacuation activity except the early of a fire were not as sensitive as the smoke layer tem-perature to the nature of ceiling heat flux condition. Thus, a fire sensor in atrium with ceiling glass has to consider these phenomena.

In this study, smoke filling behaviors in a large space were investigated. For experimental study, thermocouples were used to measure the temperature of the hot gases layer and also to determine the smoke layer depth. Height markers were also hung from the roof so that observers could visibly assess the smoke layer depth. Ethanol was used as fuel. The smoke filling times were predicted with zone model and field model and numerical results were compared with experimental data. Good results were obtained.

In this study, reduced-scale experiments were conducted to analyze smoke movement in tunnel fire with roof vent. The 1/20 scale experiments were carried out under the Froude scaling using gasoline pool fire ranging from 7.3 to 15.4 cm in diameter with total heat release rate from 1.0 to 8.46kw. In case of 1 m high vent, smoke front reached to the tunnel exit at about 16 sec delayed with ventilation. The delay time grew longer with the vent height. The temperature after the vent was lower than that without the vent. The exit temperature declined maximum of $20^{\circ}C$ after passing the vent. It was confirmed that the thickness of smoke layer was maintained uniformly under the 25% height of the tunnel through the visualized smoke now by a laser sheet and the digital camcorder.

본 연구에서는 특정의 업무용 건축물에 대해서 화재 및 피난 시나리오를 선정하여 FAST 3.1.7(전실화재 예측), SIMULEX 32-bit(피난시간의 예측), JASMINE 3.25d(특정시간까지의 연기 유동성 평가)등의 S/W를 이용하여 이를 평가했으며 그 결과는 다음과 같다. Scenario #1 결과, 화재실에서 전실화재가 발생하지 않았고, 층 피난시간은 25.2 sec로 나타났으며 이때까지의 FAST 3.1.7결과에서 연기층은 2.4m를 기록, 연기유동성 평가에서도 재실자들은 연기의 피해(가시거리, 독성)없이 피난이 완료될 것으로 나타났다. Scenario #2 결과, 화재실에서 6 min 33.2 sec에 전실화재가 발생했으며, 수계산에 의한 피난시간은 5 min 23sec로 나타났다. 본 대상건물에 대해서 선정한 Scenario #1, #2 모두 인명안전설계는 적정하게 설계되었다고 판단된다.

In order to investigate the fire-induced smoke movement in a three-dimensional room with an open door, numerical and experimental study was performed. The center, wall, and corner fire plumes for various sized fires were studied experimentally in a rectangular pool fire using methanol as a fuel. The numerical results from a self-developed SMEP (Smoke Movement Estimating Program) field model were compared with experimental results obtained in this and from literature. Comparisons of SMEP and experimental results have shown reasonable agreement. As the fire strength became larger for the center fires, the air mass flow rate in the door, average hot layer temperature, flame angle and mean flame height were observed to increase but the doorway-neutral-planeheight and the steady-state time were observed to decrease. Also as the wall effect became larger in room fires, the hot layer temperature, mean flame height, doorway-neutral-planeheight and steady-state time were observed to increase. In the egress point of view considering the smoke filling time and the early spread of plume in the room space, the results of the center fire appeared to be more dangerous as compared with the wall and the corner fire. Thus it is necessary to consider the wall effect as an important factor in designing efficient fire protection systems.

최근 건축물이 대형화, 복잡화되면서 건축물내 거주자의 피난안전성이 관심의 초점이 되고 있다. 국내 건축물은 용도에 따라 관계법령에 의한 배연창 또는 기계적 배연설비를 설치하도록 규정되어 있다. 화재시 거주자의 피난안전성을 확보하기 위하여 화재실의 제연이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 배연창 크기의 변화와 스프링클러 설비의 작동이 화재실 연기층 높이와 온도 조건에 미치는 영향을 화재 시뮬레이션프로그램인 CFAST를 이용하여 평가 하였다. 연구결과 배연창 면적이 증가할수록 5MW 화재 크기 이하에서는 연기층 높이와 온도에 미치는 효과가 증가하나 화재크기가 10MW 이상 커지면 배연창의 면적과 연기배출 효과와의 상관성이 떨어진다. 스프링클러 설비가 작동하고 배연창이 열릴 경우에는 화재크기와 상관없이 인명안전기준이 만족되었다. 법규에 의한 일률적인 배연창 면적의 적용보다는 건축물의 용도 및 규모에 따라 화재시나리오를 선정하고 시나리오에 따른 화재 크기에 따라 적절한 크기의 배연창을 적용하여야 하며 실제 실험이나 시뮬레이션을 통한 검증이 이루어져야 한다.

The purpose of this study is to analyse the characteristics and spreading laws of parameters such as fire smoke, concentration of CO, visibility, and temperature at fire scene in high-rise residential buildings under the different conditions of fire doors and automatic fire extinguishing systems. Using Pyrosim to simulate diverse fire scenes in a high-rise apartment with corridors, to analyze the changes in those parameters. The results show that when a fire occurs, closing the fire-fighting corridor will increase the smoke temperature and concentration of CO in the stairwell, and reduce the height and visibility of the smoke layer; the automatic fire extinguishing system effectively suppresses the increase in the temperature of the fire smoke and the sedimentation of the smoke layer. Reasonable setting and operation of the automatic fire extinguishing system could effectively inhibit the spread of fire. Although closing fire corridor can slow down the direct upward spread of smoke through the corridor, it will force the fire smoke into the stairwell, which will seriously affect evacuation through the stairs. Therefore, in order to reduce risks, it is forbidden to close the fire doors of the firefighting corridor and stacking combustible materials in the corridor, Also, intensifying inspections and ensuring the normal operation of the automatic fire extinguishing system are indispensable. Based on the research results, the significance of installing fire-fighting facilities in the construction of high-rise apartments was discussed and proved.

The objective of this research is to study the formations of smoke layer in case of several furniture fires such as trashcan, carpet, mattress and wardrobe as a fire starter in a residential room by performing the experimental studies. The uniformly distributed fire in case of carpet showed that the ignition and the initial growth period were relatively short while the fully developed period was considerably long. The concentrated fires such as the trashcan, mattress and wardrobe showed that the ignitions and the initial growth periods were relatively long. The descending speed of the interface height was proportioned to the inflammability of the furniture and the spread of the fire. The time required to come down around 1m was within 1-3 minutes. The Interface heights for the furniture fires were around 1m as the steady state. However, at the time of the maximum temperature, the interface height was lowered to 0.25m-0.75m from the floor. The carbon dioxide concentration reached the highest while the oxygen concentration was minimum.

본 연구는 두 가지 유형의 아트리움 공간에 대해서 Zone모델과 Field모델을 비교하였으며 특히 천장에 열 유속을 갖는 아트리움 화재에 대해서 SMEP화재 모델을 적용하여 연기거동을 수치해석 하였다. Zone 모델로는 NIST에서 개발된 CFAST 그리고 CSIRO에서 개발된 NBTC 1-room 모델을 사용하여 SMEP Field모델을 검증하였다. PISO 알고리즘과 부력항을 포함한 수정 k-e epsilon 난류모델을 사용한 SMEP은 연속, 운동, 에너지 그리고 농도 방정식을 풀었으며, 상용 Zone 모델들과의 비교는 서로 유사한 결과를 보였다. 천장이 유리로 만들어진 아트리움의 경우, 태양열에 의한 천장 열 유속을 고려함으로써 좀더 실제적인 화재현상을 규명할 수 있다. 수치해석결과 천장 열 유속 조건은 연층의 온도 분포에는 영향을 미치지만 연기의 하강과 거동에는 커다란 영향을 미치지 않고 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 따라서 화재 감지기나 배연 설비 시스템의 설치시 이러한 점들이 고려되어야만 한다.
