Rotational motion in the atmosphere around a fire may have a profound influence on the fire plume. This process underlies the occurrence of fire whirls. Fire whirls are rare but highly destructive phenomenon which were observed in a large forest, urban and building fires. The present study aims to investigate of the effect of rotation Strength on the fire whirl characteristics expeimentally. Experiments are performed for various sizes of fire source with different rotation strength. From the experimental observations, it is noted that the mean centerline temperature is gradually increased and mean radial temperature is decreased as increases rotation strength. The characteristic mean flame height of fire based on the visible observation is increased as increases of dimensionless swirl parameter, $\Omega/\alpha$, represented by swirl induced motion to buoyancy driven motion.

In the case of High-rise buildings, it has a problem by stack effect that rise of vertical height. Especially in case of fire, it need to the consideration of stack effect that it has bigger than general. Therefore in this study, we used to the Contamw and FDS simulation for analysis of stack effect and pressure distribution characteristic in fire. As a result the Contamw simulation shows the pressure distribution by stack effect in general high-rise buildings. However, in case of fire, the height of the neutral plane is lowered and stack effect is larger. Therefore, it is necessary to multiply analyze the temperature distribution and the stack effect in fire.

This research has set up the fire fighting general index for Fire fighting of Crowded Wooden Building Cultural Asset which is composed of traditional wooden building instinct or complex. The results of this study are as follows. First, Fire fighting general index for crowded wooden building cultural asset, it is necessary to set fire fighting priority by considering fire risk and cultural asset characteristic and establish the system to cope with fire disaster in the most effective way by arranging facilities with restricted resource. Second, Fire risk is the index to draw fire and spread risk of cultural asset by applying index calculation processes such as fire load, burning velocity and ignition material spread characteristic to various aspects such as individual building and complex and combining their results. Cultural asset importance index consists of individual building evaluation, publicity security degree, area importance evaluation and historical landscape degree evaluation. Third, for each index combination process, weight of each index is drawn on the basis of AHP analysis result that is performed to the specialists of related fields. The formula to apply and combine it is prepared to apply the model to include meaning of each index and comparative importance degree.

The fire whirl occurring by the instability of atmosphere is a rare phenomenon, but highly destructive because it has high inhalation and lift force, caused by the rotating velocity. And it is difficult to extinguish the fire, because of increment of the spread rate with the flame height. In this study, for investigation of the flow characteristic of fire whirl for various heat release rate, numerical analysis is performed in same conditions with experiments, using the FDS which is developed at NIST. For validating of the numerical study, the results are compared with the experiment. The result shows that the relation between the characteristic length and the ratio of circulation versus the buoyancy force is $z_f$/D$^{\ast}$ = 0.304(${\Omega}/{\alpha}$)^2 - 1.334${\Omega}/{\alpha}$ + 5.516.

본 논문에서는 컬러 화재영상에 포함된 화염의 색상 분석과 시공간적 특징 분석을 통하여 신뢰성 높은 화재 판정 조건을 제시한다. 이를 위하여 컬러영상에서 화염을 판정하는 컬러속성으로서 Y-휘도 성분과 Cr-색차 성분을 조합한 문턱치를 도출하고 화염 후보영역을 선정하였다. 선정된 화염 후보영역에 대해서는 화염의 공간적인 질감분석과 시간적인 동적변화를 DCT와 프레임간 휘도성분 변화량을 분석하여 최종 화염 판정 기준으로 제시하였다. 컴퓨터 모의실험을 통하여 제시한 화염 판정 조건의 신뢰성과 실용성을 검증하였다.

For this study, fire tests were performed targeting household items (Sofa, Drawer, Refrigerator, Washing machine) using a large cone calorimeter (Large Scale Cone Calorimeter, LSC). The data were obtained focusing on the fire characteristic of the data when the actual fire occurs. The study results showed the following mean HRR of the household items; drawer 2843 KW, sofa 2939 KW, washing machine 719 KW, refrigerator 2907 KW, and THR is found in sofa 2202 MJ, drawer 1559 MJ, refrigerator 1193 MJ, washing machine 627 MJ. From the result, it could be found that the sofa can cause significant heat generation when the fire occurs, and the flashover tendency was found relatively high in compartment fire. In addition, a weight of the four our household items was reduced sharply in a similar time (20min before and after) degree after ignition. The drawer and sofa which has a high heat release can be considered to speed up the fire spread as their weight decrease rapidly and showed relatively weak to the fire compared to the refrigerator and washing machine.

In this paper, we describe fire risk of Kimchi refrigerator. The Kimchi refrigerator has been widely spread and used starting from the first half of 2000 and recently fire accidents caused by the Kimchi refrigerator emerged as social concern. In particular, in products of a specific manufacturer, it is not an environmental factor, but a characteristic that the fire is caused due to a defect of the product itself is shown. These features are judged to be formed by unique defects regardless of external factor by forming electrically arc mark in the relay element. In this paper, we analyzed the cause of the fire occurring in the Kimchi refrigerator and finally confirmed the characteristic that the fire occurred mainly in the relay element due to insufficient capacity of the relay element. Therefore, when a fire occurs in a product of the same maker as the Kimchi refrigerator mentioned in this paper, it is always judged that the inspection of the relay element should be carried out.
