Fire extinguishing experiment was conducted with water mist nozzle in case of the pool fire, cascade fire and spray fire on flammable liquid of class B whether water mist system can be effective system for power transformer fire scenario. In the event of a pool fire, flow rate and time to extinguish was inclined to be increased according to the obstruction rate of ignition space. Furthermore, the performance of fire extinguishing depended upon the spraying angle of the nozzles. In case of cascade fire, the effect of extinguishment was began to show from a combustion pan filled with fuel and fuel flowing plate later on.

Various types of nozzles have been used to cope with fire in ships. However, in Korea, precise nozzles that perform fine spraying function are required for fire fighting in case of fire in a ship, and most of these nozzles depend on imports. Therefore, in this study, we developed various types of nozzles to develop the water spray nozzle for evolving fire in the engine room of the ship, and developed an optimal nozzle through flow analysis and fire test. For this purpose, we selected the materials that can satisfy the characteristics of existing nozzle materials and developed the design technology and processing technology in the nozzle considering fluid flow to achieve optimal water spraying performance. In order to develop an optimal nozzle, the flow through the finite element analysis was first analyzed and the nozzle was manufactured. As a result of flow analysis of the developed nozzle, the maximum velocity at the outlets of four holes at 0.3 MPa was about 3m/s and about 0.15 MPa. In addition, when the pressure at the inlet was 1.8 MPa, it showed the outlet speed of about 18m/s and a pressure of 1.2 MPa.

터널화재 시 위험을 경감시키기 위해 설치하는 물분무설비의 성능을 실대 시험을 통해 확인하였다. A급 화재, Pool 화재 및 차량화재시 물분무노즐은 뜨거운 연기의 온도를 낮추는데 효과가 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 터널에 기류가 존재하는 경우에도 냉각효과가 큰 것으로 확인되었다. 이 결과를 통해 물분무설비는 터널화재 시 기류온도를 낮춤으로써 fire jump를 방지하고, 주위의 시설물을 보호할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

연구목적: 본 연구는 미분무 소화설비의 FDS모델링 수행에 있어 액적과 관련된 변수의 설정 변화가 살수밀도에 미치는 영향을 알아보았다. 연구방법: 미분무 노즐의 살수 현상을 FDS에서 해석할 경우 액적과 관련하여 설정할 수 있는 항목 중 초당액적수, 액적속도, 입경분포함수, 분사패턴형태의 값을 입력하여 분석된 결과를 검토하였다 연구결과: 분석결과에서, 초당미립자 수 설정은 일정 값 이상이 되면 유사한 바닥면의 살수밀도를 보여주었다. 액적속도는 낮아짐에 따라 중심부분의 살수밀도를 높이지만 0.15m 이상 떨어진 거리에서는 낮아짐을 알 수 있었다. 입경분포함수의 변화에 대한 분석에서, 𝛾값의 증가는 중심부분의 살수밀도의 증가를 가져오지만, 떨어진 위치에서의 값은 감소를 가져온다는 점을 알 수 있었다. 가우시안 분포를 적용한 결과에 비하여 균등분포를 적용하는 경우 중앙값은 극적으로 낮아지지만 인접위치에서의 값은 증가함을 보여준다. 결론: FDS의 액적특성에 관련된 변수들은 각각 바닥면의 살수밀도에 영향을 준다. 그러므로 화재 진압이나 냉각 등의 해석에 들어가기 전 신뢰성을 확보하기 위하여 입력변수에 대한 면밀한 검토가 필요하다.

The numerical simulation has been performed to predict the performance of the fire suppression system for cabin of shipboard enclosure. The present study aims ultimately at finding the optimal parametric conditions of the mist-injecting nozzles using the CFD methods. The open numerical code was used for the present simulation named as FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator). Application has been done to predict the interaction between water mist and fire plume. In this study, the passenger cabin was chosen as simulation space. The computational domains for simulation in the passenger cabin were determined following the fire scenario of IMO rules. The full scale of the flow field is $W{\times}L{\times}H=4{\times}3{\times}2.4m^3$ with a dead zone of $W{\times}L{\times}H=1.22{\times}1.1{\times}2.4m^3$. The water mist nozzle is installed in ceiling center of 2.3 m height from the floor, and there are six mattresses and four cushions in the simulation space. The combination patterns of orifices to the main nozzle and the position to install nozzles were chosen as the simulation parameters for design applications. From the present numerical results, the centered-located nozzles having evenly combined orifices were shown as the best performance of fire suppression.
