수많은 건물들이 세워지고 있는 가운데 안전 역시 중요한 문제로 인식되고 있다. 본 논문은 유비쿼터스 시대에 맞추어 센서네트워크를 이용하여 건물의 화재정보를 실시간으로 감지하고 화재 발생 시 다양한 상황정보를 고려하여 대피 경로를 사용자 스마트 기기로 알려주는 상황정보 기반의 지능형 화재대피 서비스 모델 설계를 제안한다. 제안하는 서비스 모델은 센서가 실시간으로 건물 내부를 감지하고 화재 여부 및 화재지역, 연기량, 사람수 등의 상황정보를 파악하여 서버에 전송하고 서버는 전송된 정보를 분석하여 대피경로 추출 알고리즘을 이용해 최적의 대피 경로를 사용자의 스마트기기로 전송한다. 이 시스템 구현으로 건물 화재 발생시 사람들이 안전하게 대피할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

The onset of fire on the International Space Station (ISS) is a critical problem that can threaten the life of crew members onboard and thus instantaneous fire detection and extinguishment technology has been considered as one of the most important aspects in the ISS operation. In the present study, a numerical analysis was performed to better understanding of the characteristics of smoke behaviors and detection in a pressurized module of the ISS using the NIST Fire Dynamic Simulator (FDS). Numerical results indicate that the smoke flow patterns under zero-gravity condition are clearly different from those under normal gravity condition. In addition, the results obtained from numerical simulations coupled with the PM internal flows are expected to provide basic and useful information in designing the microgravity fire detection devices and establishing in fire response protocol for astronauts or the crew members.

Since the air stream in the room controlled by HVAC system affects on he expected response of conventional detectors which are designed in accordance with normal characteristics of air stream in the fire incident, unexpected operation time delay may occur in fire. In order to solve this problem and to improve sensitivity so that to initiate fire in its early stages for minimizing damage and protecting people, we studied and developed Air Sampling Smoke Detector. The Air Sampling Smoke Detector is a kind of active-type fire detection system. it draws air continuously from the protected area through an air sampling pipe network to the smoke density analyzer. This study presents smoke density analysing technique and air intake balancing technique through an air sampling pipe network. As a result of evaluating, Air Sampling Smoke Detector was much more sensitive than conventional smoke detectors that passively wait for smoke to reach them and was not affected by ambient airflow in the room by means of balanced air intake through the sampling holes.

Recently, design and construction of street tunnels tend to focus on cost reduction and preservation of nature. Accordingly, research is actively being carried out to quickly detect fires when they occur in tunnels, which have partially closed structures. Among such research, fire detection methods using optical fiber sensors have a wide bandwidth and fast transmission speed, while using light as a medium. Therefore, it does not receive electrical interference and there is almost no loss of information during transmission, while also having little noise as well. In relation to this, a fire monitoring system that can accurately detect the location of fires in real time using shape memory alloy and optical cables was developed in this study. In order to verify the developed method, light loss measurement test was conducted according to indoor temperature changes, while also conducting fire simulation tests by installing test beds in common underground zones with different external environments of temperature and distance. Upon carrying out experiments, the fire monitoring system developed in this study was found to be able to detect fires in long distance sections in real time.

우리나라에서는 지난 10년간 매년 4만 건 내외의 화재가 발생하여 많은 인명 피해와 경제적 손실이 발생하고 있다. 화재가 발생했을 때는 화재를 신속히 진압하여 인명 피해와 경제적 손실을 최소화하여야 한다. 또한, 화재 사고를 예방하기 위해 화재의 발화 원인이 무엇인지 알아내야 한다. 기존의 화재 경보 시스템에서는 온도, 연기, 불꽃 센서 등으로 화재를 감지하였으나 오경보나 화재를 인식하지 못하는 문제, 화재 원인을 구분하지 못하는 문제 등이 있었다. 또한, 사람이 화재 발생을 인지하기까지 시간이 많이 소요될 수 있고 부재로 인해 화재 상황인식이 늦어질 수도 있는 문제가 있었다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 논문에서는 GCN(Graph Convolutional Network) 모델을 이용하여 화재 상황에서의 복합 센서 상황을 학습해서 실제 화재 사고가 발생했을 때 화재의 원인을 구분할 수 있는 모델을 제안한다.

Research about IoT system that utilizes variation of wireless received signal according to the changing of the surrounding environment are actively being studied. In this paper, firstly we proved that the received signal strength changes according to the ambient temperature variation. Then, we proposed the fire detection scheme by using received signal strength variation when the signal exchange between fixed transmitter and receiver periodically. The proposed scheme consists of the received signal strength change detection unit and the internal receiver temperature detection unit which prevents misunderstanding the received signal strength variation by the changing of wireless channel environment as outbreak of fire. The proposed scheme has the advantage of being able to support the existing receiver through software upgrade without additional device.

This paper proposes an effective fire detection approach that includes the following multiple heterogeneous algorithms: moving region detection using grey level histograms, color segmentation using fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM), feature extraction using a grey level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM), and fire classification using support vector machine (SVM). The proposed approach determines the optimal threshold values based on grey level histograms in order to detect moving regions, and then performs color segmentation in the CIE LAB color space by applying the FCM. These steps help to specify candidate regions of fire. We then extract features of fire using the GLCM and these features are used as inputs of SVM to classify fire or non-fire. We evaluate the proposed approach by comparing it with two state-of-the-art fire detection algorithms in terms of the fire detection rate (or percentages of true positive, PTP) and the false fire detection rate (or percentages of true negative, PTN). Experimental results indicated that the proposed approach outperformed conventional fire detection algorithms by yielding 97.94% for PTP and 4.63% for PTN, respectively.

화재발생 시 인명 안전을 위하여 초기의 화재감지가 매우 중요한 요인이다. 기존 연기감지기의 경우 일정한 조건만 맞으면 작동하기 때문에 비화재보의 우려가 높다. 특히 차량 매연도 연료가 연소되어 나오는 연기이므로 차량정체 시 트럭 등에서 발생하는 심한 매연에도 반응하여 오작동의 가능성이 높다. 이러한 기존 화재감지기의 문제점을 해결하기 위해 다양한 IR 레이저 기반 연기검출장치가 활용되고 있다. 하지만 IR 레이저 기반 연기검출장치는 100m 거리가 이격된 레이저 발광부와 수광부 구조에 따라 발광부 레이저광선의 각도변화에 따른 수광부 레이저 포인트 위치가 매우 민감하게 변화함에 따라 초기 레이저 포인트의 초점을 정확히 정합하고, 이후 보정하기 위한 고정밀 자동 초점 정합장치가 필요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 레이저 투광부와 수광부를 분리하여 레이저 송신기, 수신기로 구성되는 고정밀 자동초점 정합장치를 설계하고자 한다.

원전에서의 화재사고는 사람은 물론 주변 환경에도 막대한 영향과 피해를 가져오는 파괴적 재난이 될 수 있다. 오늘날 원자력 발전소를 위한 화재안전 프로그램들은 화재 발생 확률과 피해를 최소화하는 것을 우선 과제로 삼고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 어떠한 화재라도 안전작동 차단기능을 방해하지 않으며, 원전 주위에 방사능 유포 위험을 늘리지 않는다는 것을 목표로 화재안전 프로그램이 운영되고 작동중인 원자로의 넓은 적용 범위에서 초기 탐지능력을 강화하는 것이 중요하다고 할 수 있다.
