원자력발전소는 심층화재방어 개념에 따라 화재 발생시 발전소 외부로 방사능의 누출을 억제하고, 발전소의 안전정지 기능이 유지될 수 있도록 설계, 건설, 운영되어야 한다. 해외의 원전건설 국가는 이러한 원자력발전소의 안전정지 기능의 목적을 달성하기 위하여 원자력발전소에 대한 통합된 화재방호 규제요건을 가지고 있으나, 우리나라의 경우, 원자력발전소의 화재방호계통을 적용하기 위한 강제 요건으로서 소방관계법과 원자력법을 동시에 적용하는 비합리적인 규제지침을 가지고 있다. 화재방호설비에 관하여 원자력발전소 운영에 오랜 경험을 가진 미국, 캐나다 및 일본의 기술적으로 단일화된 원자력발전소의 화재방호 규제체계를 제시하였고, 우리나라도 화재방호설비는 원자력법에 의한 화재하중에 따른 화재위험도분석 결과를 설계에 반영하여 소방관계법에서는 예외조항으로 인정받을 수 있어야 함을 제안하였다.

To date, the demand for Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) has been continuously increased to overcome the problem of air pollution and lack of energy. In particular, the underground CCPP is exposed to substantial fire and explosion risks induced by gas leakage. The present study conducted numerical simulations to examine the fire behavior and gas leakage characteristics for a restricted region including gas turbine and other components used in a typical CCPP system. The commercial code of FLUENT V.14 was used for simulation. From the results, it was found that flammable limit distribution of leakage gas affects fire behavior. Especially, the flame is propagated in an instant in restricted region with LNG gas. In addition, consequence analysis factors such as critical temperature and radiation heat flux are introduced. These results would be useful in making the safety guidelines for the underground CCPP.

Since the unprecedented hydrogen fluoride leak accident in 2012, there has been growing demand for customized technical information for rapid response and chemical accident management agencies including the Ministry of Environment, the National Emergency Management Agency, and the National Police Agency need more information on chemicals and accident management. In this regard, this study aims to provide reliable technical data and guidelines to initial response agencies, similar to accident management technical reports of the US and Canada. In this study, we conducted a questionnaire survey and interviews on initial response agencies like fire stations, police stations, and local governments to identify new information items for appropriate initial response and improvements of current guidelines. We also collected and reviewed the Canada's TIPS, US EPA's hydrogen fluoride documents, domestic and foreign literature on applicability tests of control chemicals, and interview data, and then produced items to be listed in the technical guidelines. In addition, to establish database of on-site technical information, we carried out applicability tests for accident control data including ① emergency shut down devide, safety guard, shut down valve, ground connection, dyke, transfer pipe, scrubber, and sensor; ② literature and field survey on distribution type and transportation/storage characteristics (container identification, valve, ground connection, etc.); ③ classification and identification of storage/transportation facilities and emergency management methodslike leak prevention, chemicals control, and cutoff or bypass of rain drainage; ④ domestic/foreign analysis methods and environmental standards including portable detection methods, test standards, and exposure limits; and ⑤ comparison/evaluation of neutralization efficiency of control chemicals on toxic substances.

본 연구는 하중비, 피복유무의 주요변수를 고려한 iTECH 합성보의 내화성능을 해석적 연구를 통해서 규명한 것이다. 합성보 구조는 개별적인 구조부재보다 내화성능이 우수할 것으로 기대되므로 해석적 연구에 의해서 안전하고 경제적인 내화설계를 제시할 수 있다. 열전달 해석은 범용 유한요소 프로그램인 ANSYS 10.0을 이용하여 ISO표준화재에 대해서 수행하였으며, EC1 Part 2.2와 EC4 Part1.2에서 제시된 모멘트 능력식과 강재와 콘크리트의 열적특성에 근거하여 내력해석을 수행하였다. 해석의 적절성을 검증하기 위해 실제적으로 수행된 실험결과와 비교를 통해서 그 적절성을 검증하였다.

본 연구는 시각장애인 복지관 건축계획, 실내디자인 및 운영관리 개선방안을 제시하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있다. 이를 위하여 시각장애인 이동 특성을 고찰하고, 피난실험을 통하여 피난행태를 분석하였다. 이상의 연구결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 첫째, 시각장애인의 피난을 위해 '一자형'의 연속된 직선형 피난통로(보행안전통로) 및 실내 랜드마크 배치를 하고, 장애인 거주시설 및 프로그램 운영실을 가능하면 1층에 배치하여 지면과 무단차로 직접적인 피난이 이루어지도록 하는 것이 바람직하다. 둘째, 실내디자인 측면에서 수평이동을 위한 연속적인 핸드레일이 중요하며, 길찾기 및 피난경로를 안내하는 바닥재료의 재질변화, 색채대비, 촉지정보, 음성안내 등 세심한 계획이 요구된다. 셋째, 장애유형에 따른 장애인 이동특성 및 피난행태를 고려한 세분화된 건축계획, 실내디자인 기준 및 운영관리 매뉴얼을 제공할 필요성이 있다.

국내에서는 중요 구조물을 대상으로 별도의 내화시험을 통해 내화성능을 평가하고 있으며, 그 성능기준으로 ITA에서 제시하고 있는 가이드라인을 따르고 있다. 프리캐스트 방식으로 슬래브와 내화재가 일체화되어 제작되는 내화풍도슬래브는 내화재 시공시간을 단축할 수 있다는 점에서 효과적이다. 본 연구에서는 풍도슬래브의 내화성능을 확보하기 위해 RWS화재시나리오 하에서 내화시험체에 대한 화재저항시험을 수행하였다. 시험결과, 내화재 두께가 30 mm 이상에서 내화성능을 확보하는 것으로 나타났다. 내화재와 콘크리트 모두에서 온도 변화율이 초기에 증가했다가 감소하고 다시 증가하는 경향이 나타났으며, 다시 증가하는 변곡점에서의 온도가 모든 내화재와 콘크리트에서 110℃로 측정되었다. 이것은 내화재와 콘크리트가 모두 수화반응에 의해 생성된 C-S-H (CaO-SiO₂-H₂O)가 탈수되면서 발생하는 것으로 판단된다.

Chemical accidents generated during maintenance, repair, and normal operation, such as dispersion, fire, and explosions, can cause massive losses like a 2012 hydro fluorine leak in Gumi, South Korea. Since this accident, many researches have studied physical mitigation systems. However, due to many difficulties including potential costs and lack time, it is really hard for many companies to install mitigation systems without prior knowledge. Thus, the efficacy of mitigation system should be evaluated. This study assesses a dike design considering the fluid velocity at an open hole when a leakage accident occurs. It is assumed that leakage materials follow a free fall motion. Throughout case studies, a current KOSHA guide for a dike design was evaluated and new guidelines handling various conditions were proposed.

The paper aims at improving the understanding and mitigating the effects of tunnel fires that may breakout due to the burning fuel and/or explosion within the tunnel. This study particularly focuses on the behavior of the commonly used horse shoe geometry of tunnel systems. The problem has been obtained using an adequate well-established program incorporating the Lagrangian approach. A transient-thermo-coupled static structural analysis is carried out. The effects of radiation and convection to the outer walls of the tunnel is studied. The paper also presents the impact of the hazard on the structural integrity of the tunnel. A methodology is proposed to study the tunnel fire using a model which uses equivalent steel sheet to represent the presence of reinforcements to improve the computational efficiency with adequate validation. A parametric study has been carried out and the effect of suitable lining property for mitigating the fire hazard is arrived at. Detailed analysis is done for the threshold limits of the properties of the lining material to check if it is acceptable in all aspects for the integrity of the tunnel. The study may prove useful for developing insights for ensuring tunnel fire safety. To conduct such studies experimentally are tremendously costly but are required to gain confidence. But, scaled models, as well as loading and testing conditions, cannot be studied by many trials experimentally as the cost will shoot up sharply. In this context, the results obtained from such computational studies with a feasible variation of various combinations of parameters may act as a set of guidelines to freeze the adequate combination of various parameters to conduct one or two costly experiments for confidence building.

As the number of subway user increases, not only interests in safety increase but also interests in evacuation for a conflagration expand after 'Daegu Subway Fire Disaster' took place. It is necessary to revise the standard of evacuation time and guidelines to guarantee safety of station and platform considering changes in subway environments caused by construction of the deeply underground subway station. Hence this study investigates the current status of the evacuation time of respective station through a site investigation and the results of this study may be utilized as a basic material to calculate an appropriate evacuation time.
