2019년 하노이에서 열린 체 2차 북미회담은 공동 합의를 도출하지 못한 채 결렬되었다. 본 논문은 마틴과 화이트(2005)의 평가어 체계를 근간으로 총 8개의 사설들, 구체적으로는 4개의 주요 미국 언론들의 사설들과 4개의 한국 언론들의 사설들을 평가어들을 포함한 언어적 표현들을 중심으로 분석하였다. 분석 결과 뉴욕타임즈, USA투데이, 워싱턴 포스트, 월스트리트 저널의 사설들 중 월스트리트 저널을 제외한 3개의 언론들은 모두 회담 결렬의 원인을 트럼프 대통령 개인으로 귀속시키며 부정적 평가어로 입장을 전달함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 4개의 신문 사설에서는 한반도의 비핵화나 평화에 대한 우려에 대한 내용을 담고 있지 않았다. 반면 한국의 언론들은 모두 회담 결렬의 원인보다는 향후 방향에 대해 중점을 두고 있었는데, 두 언론은 부정적 행위평가어를 이용하여 문제점과 우려를 제기했지만, 다른 두 언론은 한겨레신문과 경향신문은 향후 대응과 입장에 중심을 두었고 부정적 평가어보다는 당부와 조언의 언어적 자원을 활용하고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 이를 통해, 담론 소비에 있어 양국의 언론들은 각자의 입장을 전달하는 데 있어 부정적인 평가어를 선호한다는 점, 그리고 기대와 당부를 전달할 때는 평가어보다는 보조 용언과 같은 언어적 표현을 사용한다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The sprinkler system is a basic fire extinguishing system that uses water as an extinguishing agent. In order to evaluate the fire extinguishing performance of the sprinkler system, information such as the discharge angle, discharge speed, discharge pressure, flow rate, and water droplet size of the installed head are required. However, there is a lack of research on droplets size compared to other requirements. In this study, to evaluate the extinguishing characteristics of sprinkler system, the droplet size distribution was measured for various types of sprinkler heads actually used. The size of the droplet was measured using laser diffraction method. The 50% cumulative volume distribution ($D_{v50}$) according to discharge coefficient(K factor) was $540{\mu}m{\sim}695{\mu}m$ for K50, $542{\mu}m{\sim}1,192{\mu}m$ for K80, $980{\mu}m{\sim}1,223{\mu}m$ for K115 and $1,188{\mu}m{\sim}1,234{\mu}m$ for K202. Based on the measured results, the vaeiance of the droplet particle distribution and the distribution ($D_{v50}$) according to discharge coefficient(K factor) was $540{\mu}m{\sim}695{\mu}m$ for K50, $542{\mu}m{\sim}1,192{\mu}m$ for K80, $980{\mu}m{\sim}1,223{\mu}m$ for K115 and $1,188{\mu}m{\sim}1,234{\mu}m$ for K202. Based on the measured results, the vaeiance of the droplet particle distribution and the Rosin-Rammler index value are presented. As a result of the fire simulation with FDS, it was confirmed that the performance difference occurs according to the water droplet size distribution even when the same amount of water is used. Therefore, the extinguishing performance of the sprinkler system should be evaluated considering the droplet size distribution according to the sprinkler head type.

스프링클러설비의 화재안전기준인 NFSC103은 설계면적 내의 모든 헤드로부터 방출압 1 bar이상과 방출량 80 lpm 이상을 최소기준으로 규정하고 있다. NFSC103은 또한 설치장소의 용도에 따라 설계면적에서 작동하는 헤드의 수를 10개, 20개, 30개로 규정하고 각 헤드별 유량을 80 lpm으로 하여 총유량을 800 lpm, 1,600 lpm, 2,400 lpm으로 규정하고 있다. 이 규정대로 스프링클러 설비를 설계하면 약 50 %의 스프링클러헤드에서 유량과 압력이 최소기준보다 부족하게 된다. 이는 스프링클러의 목적인 초기화재 대응에 실패를 가져오는 심각한 결과를 초래할 수 있다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 성능위주 설계인 수리계산방법에 의해 모든 스프링클러설계가 이루어지는 것이 바람직하다.

본 연구에서는 상수도 직결형 스프링클러 시스템의 성능을 평가하기 위하여 실물 주택을 대상으로 화재 실험을 수행하였다. 실물 주택의 크기는 $56m^2$이며 거실, 주방, 방으로 이루어져 있으며, 화재는 대두유가 과열되어 자연발화가 발생하여 일어나게 하였다. 상수도 직결형 스프링클러시스템의 성능을 확인하기 위하여 주방에 스프링클러시스템을 설치하였다. 실험결과 주방에서의 발화로 시작된 화재는 주방천장까지 확대 되었으나 스프링클러가 동작하면서 화재는 진압되었다. 스프링클러가 동작할 때의 상수도 압력은 0.28 MPa이었으며 이 결과로서 일반 주택의 상수도압력으로도 소화가 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

The sprinkler system is a basic fire extinguishing system widely used, but there is a lack of quantitative assessment of its performance. In this study, to evaluate the fire extinguishing performance of the sprinkler head according to the discharge coefficients, experiments were conducted. Experimental sprinkler heads were selected with heads having K50, K80 and K115 water discharge coefficients, and the fire source was assumed to be an indoor fire in Class A Model 1. As experimental results, the time required for the fire chamber to cool down to $200^{\circ}C$ was 26 seconds for the K115 head, 414 seconds for the K80 head, and 481 seconds for the K50 head, so the cooling time of the K115 head was decreased by 94.5% compared to K50 head. In the case of restoring the oxygen concentration to 15%, the K115 head did not decrease below the oxygen concentration of 15%, and the K80 head took 145 seconds and the K50 head took 484 seconds. The lowest oxygen concentration in the fire chamber was 16.1% for the K115 head, 14.33% for the K80 head, and 11.28% for the K50 head, indicating that the K115 head was superior to the K80 and K50 heads by 13.1% and 43.7%, respectively. As the experimental results show, there is big difference in the extinguishing performance depending on the discharge coefficients of the sprinkler head. Therefore, in designing the sprinkler system, the discharge coefficients of the sprinkler head should be selected considering the heat release rate at the installation site and the fire extinguishing characteristics of sprinkler head.

In this study, a numerical analysis was performed as part of an international joint research project to reproduce a real cable tray fire that occurred in the heater bay area of the turbine building of a nuclear power plant. A sensitivity analysis was performed on various input parameters to derive results consistent with the sprinkler activation time obtained from the fire event analysis. For all sensitive parameters, the normalized sprinkler activation time correlated well with the power function of the normalized sprinkler height. A correlation equation was developed to identify the sprinkler activation time at any location when determining the slope or fire growth rate under the conditions assuming a linear or t-squared heat release rate (HRR) time curve. Various cable fire growth assumptions were used to determine which assumption was better to provide the prediction coincident with the information given from the fire event analysis in terms of the sprinkler activation time and total energy generated from cables damaged by fire. In the comprehensive analysis of all the sensitive parameters, the standard deviation of the input parameters increased as the sprinkler height decreased. Within the range of the sensitivity parameter values given in this study, when considering all sprinkler heights, the standard deviation of the cable model change was the largest and that of the overhang position change was the smallest.

A basic sprinkler system is a fire extinguishing system that can be easily installed in a fire-vulnerable place such as a publicly used establishments. However, the publicly used establishments are not only complicated in structure, but also have a large amount of flammable interior materials, and the users are not normally in a normal state, which is a very dangerous fire-fighting object. Therefore, due to the low fire extinguishing performance of the basic sprinkler system installed in the publicly used establishments, the fire suppression control can not be performed quickly in case of fire, which may increase the life and property damage. In this study, the cases of quantitative changes of extinguishing water used in basic sprinkler system and the cases of addition of additives such as wetting agents, reinforced agents to improve extinguishing performance were compared. Experimental results showed that the extinguishing performance was improved as the quantity of extinguishing water increase and the reinforced agents showed similar performance to that of 60% increase in the amount of extinguishing water. The cooling time to $200^{\circ}C$ and oxygen concentration were improved up to 14.3% and 34.5%, respectively. In the case of using the wetting agent, the cooling time to $200^{\circ}C$ and oxygen concentration did not show any significant improvement, but showed the effect of preventing deep seated fire. In order to prevent loss of life and property, it is necessary to improve the performance of the basic sprinkler system by increasing amount of extinguishing water or using additives like reinforced agents.
