Abstract

This paper presents a study on the analysis for false alarm of heat detector using HRR(Heat Release Rate). And it is represented to threshold value and domain of false alarm. The HRR threshold value of false alarm is calculated to use parameters obtained by small scale fire-experiment. The experiment is conducted to measure detector activation time and flame spread of wood cribs fire, etc. The results show that HRR threshold value of Fixed type detector is 20.24 kW and rate of rise type detector is 13.59 kW, respectively.

본 논문은 화재발생시 열감지기가 오동작하는 특성을 열방출률(Heat Release Rate : HRR)을 이용하여 경계값을 정량적으로 나타내고 그 경계값을 기준으로 감지기의 오동작 영역을 분석하였다. Crib 형태의 목재를 가지고 small-scale의 화재실험을 통하여 화재감지기의 동작시간 등을 측정하였고 이를 이용하여 화재감지기가 동작하는 순간의 HRR을 계산하였다. 화재실험으로부터 얻은 변수를 가지고 화재감지기가 오동작하는 HRR의 경계값을 계산한 결과 정온식 감지기는 20.24 kW 차동식 감지기는 13.59 kW로 나타났다.
