The fire accidents having recently occurred are getting more and more larger and causing lots of damage in terms of property loss and casualties increase, so there is in need of technical fire safety development like comprehensive prevention solution in order to effectively prevent. Especially, the needing of new paradigm for advanced fire safe technology is gathering strength in high-rise modern building construction. Therefore, we want to find out on this paper what is a correlation between heat release rate measurement and smoke release volume by three parts of oxygen consumption calorimeter in bench scale calorimeter (cone calorimeter/ISO 5660/Avg.500Kw), Medium scale calorimeter (Room corner tester, Single burning Item/ISO 9750, EN 13823/Avg.3MW), and large scale calorimeter (Industry calorimeter/Avg. 10MW). Thus, Smoke detective of new paradigm devised by making use of a correlation between heat release and smoke production is to help reduce loss property and casualties. Ultimately, based on this theory, a new concept of fire alarm and evacuation system will be developed and expected to apply to a skyscraper.

본 연구는 주거시설의 대표적인 가연물을 고정가연물과 적재가연물로 구분하여 가연물의 연소특성을 실험결과에 대한 연구이다. 고정가연물은 7종에 대하여 Cone Calorimeter로 적재가연물은 2종 Furniture Calorimeter로 실험을 실시하였다. 고정가연물의 경우 접착성분을 지니고 있는 시트지의 경우가 HRR등이 높게 측정되었으며, 적재가연물의 경우 섬유성분과 플라스틱으로 구성되어 있는 의자가 높게 측정되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

The efficiency, reliability and performance of any heat pump unit can only be ascertained after it has been tested and rated. For this reason, specific facilities, equiped with testing plants are built. Heat pump calorimeter is the facilities used by most of these testing facilities in their rating and certification process. The ultimate function of calorimeters is to, control and maintain the constant standard test conditions (indoor/outdoor entering temperatures and flow rate etc) during testing period. In this study, the test standards of heat pump unit and the structure of the calorimeter are surveyed. In addition, this study analyzes the total energy consumption of a water to water heat pump calorimeter. Heat pump calorimeter consumed much energy to excute the heat pump tests. The energy consumption of the calorimeter was higher than the heat pump unit, and it was increased as the heat pump unit capacity decreased.

A batch reaction calorimeter is the device for estimating reaction heat along time. Reaction heat formation data are very imoprtant for batch reactor behavior analysis and operatoin. So, many types of reaction calorimeter have been introduced and used. In this study, we analyze the dynamic charateristics of the batch reaction calorimeter that is designed in our laboratory. And we introducde suitable temperature control system. As a result, we analyze reatin heat formation data obtained by simulation and introduce its application examples.

As an early stage in the development of a water calorimeter, this study established a computer simulation methodology for analyzing the thermal behavior of a water calorimeter based on radiation transport and energy deposition. As a result, this study developed a method wherein the energy deposition distribution, which is obtained by applying Monte Carlo methods in water calorimeters, is directly used as a heat source for the thermal analysis model. Based on the proposed method, heat transfer in a water vessel and the effect of thermistor self-heating were analyzed. Through an analysis of the water velocities with and without a water vessel, it was found that a water vessel can serve as a convection barrier. Furthermore, it was confirmed that when considering thermistor self-heating, the water temperature change at the thermistor location is 0.219 mK higher compared to that when the thermistor was not considered. Therefore, thermistor self-heating must be considered to analyze the thermal behavior of a water calorimeter more accurately.

Cone calorimeter measurements can be used for the calculation of effective material properties, which can be used as input parameters in modeling of fire. Main parameter measured in Cone calorimeter is heat release rate. Some other parameters as time to ignition, effective heat of combustion, mass loss rate or total heat released is also measured in Cone calorimeter. Total heat released is important from the point of view of total energy available in material in Fire situation. Cone calorimeter. measurements were done on several wood species (oak, beech, spruce, poplar). Measurements were provided at external irradiances 30, 50 and 65 ㎾/$m_2$ in horizontal orientation. Heat release rate data were evaluated and compared as a function of external irradiance for various species of wood. furthermore the influence of external irradiance on effective heat of combustion and total heat release was also evaluated for the period of flame combustion.

Bomb calorimeter was developed for measuring the calorific value of combustible matter such as wastes. The calorimeter consist of bomb, stirred-water type bucket, thermometer and ignition circuit. Operation and performance of the calorimeter have been tested experimentally. In the present study, calorific values of light oil, lamp oil and bunker C oil is measured using the bomb calorimeter. Mass of the sample is fixed at lg, and oxygen pressure in the bomb is used as an experimental parameter. Sample in the oxygen bomb is burned with electrically heated Ni-Cr wire of 100mm in length, and temperature of water in the bucket become increased by $5^{\circ}C$ during about 30min. Calorific value of the sample is calculated with the temperature difference of water. Combustion tests, such as the record of temperature history and the inspection of remnants, are performed at 4, 6, 8 and 10 atm of the oxygen pressure. From the test results, oxygen pressure in the bomb must be over 10atm for complete combustion.

An high-speed isothermal calorimeter which can trace the progress of a liquid phase reversible reaction was constructed using analog and digital computer. By means of a set point change of the calorimeter, the thermal energy capacity and the heat of reaction in reversible reaction mixture can be measured. The heat of reaction between 2-methyl furan and maleic anhydride and the heat capacities of the adduct were 61,200 J/mol and 2.38 J/ g K, respectively. Also reaction equilibrium constant and reaction rate constants can be estimated from the response curves of the calorimeter.
