  • 보일러실이나 세탁소, 또는 음식점과 다중이용업소의 주방에 주로 설치하는 자동확산소화장치는 화재발생 시 화염이나 열에 의해 자동으로 약제가 방출되어 화재를 진압하는 소화기구 중 하나이다. 이 소화장치는 공칭방호면적에 해당하는 소화능력을 가지고 있으므로 방호대상물이 이 범위를 벗어나 있으면 유효한 화재진압이 보장되지 않지만 현행 기준에는 바닥면적에 따른 설치갯수만 요구하고 있다. 따라서 방호대상물과의 이격거리에 따라 소화성능은 달라지게 되며 이에 대한 특성을 고찰하고자 천장높이가 2.5 m인 모형화재실에 본 소화장치를 설치하고 A급, B급 모형가연물과의 수평이격거리에 따른 소화실험을 실시하였다. 실험결과 일반가연물과 유류가연물을 모두 확실하게 소화할 수 있는 최대수평이격거리는 약 30 cm인 것으로 나타났다.

  • 통상 소형 건물이나 일반주택은 자동화설비 대신 수동식소화기에 의존하고 있어서 사람이 없거나 노약자만 있을 시에는 화재에 매우 취약하다. 이에 대한 대책으로 발생한 화재를 초기에 자동으로 진압할 수 있도록, 자동감지장치가 탑재된 경제성 있는 자동식소화기가 개발되었다. 본 논문에서는 이에 대한 소화 특성을 현장 화재시험을 통하여 규명하고 그 실용화 방향을 제시하였다. 실험 결과, 제반성능은 우수하였으나, 열감지부인 이융성금속의 작동시간이 공간크기에 따라 크게 변화하고 5분을 초과하는 경우도 발생하므로, 이를 $ 12\m^2$이내의 공간에 대하여 작동시간을 3분 이내로 단축하기 위해서는 용융온도가 더욱 낮은 금속을 사용하고, 설치 위치도 1.5 m 이하보다는 천장부로 하는 것이 바람직한 것으로 나타났다.

  • Our goal was to make a cost-effective automatic fire extinguishing system for the engine compartment use of automobiles. We designed this system for the engine compartment. This system consists of 1)foam extinguisher, 2)four nozzles, 3)a pipe arrangement, and 4)an extinguishing device which is equipped with a glass bulb as detector. First and foremost, the extinguishing device was carefully designed to keep the system cost to a minimum. Second, a AFFF foam extinguisher was used because no other fire-fighting agents proved effective against fire in the engine compartment. The AFFF(Aqueous Film Forming Foam) agent which was used in the extinguisher is the 3M company's Light Water. We sought, however, to make other foams by using Halon 1301 and Halon alternatives such as HCFC Blend A, HFC-227ea. We selected these alternatives instead of air in order to raise the expansion ratio of the AFFF agent. By these means we discovered that it is possible to increase the expansion ration of the AFFF agent up to 44:1. We then demonstrated that our automatic fire extinguishing system is the most effective and lowest cost-system yet devised for passenger cars.

  • 주택화재 특히 아파트 저층부나 일반주택은 자동화설비 대신 수동식소화기에 의존하고 있어서 사람이 없거나 노약자만 있을 시에는 화재에 매우 취약하다. 따라서 화채로 인한 희생을 줄이기 위해서는 발생한 화재를 초기에 자동으로 진압하는 것이 가장 중요하며, 이를 위하여 자동감지장치가 탑재된 경제성 있는 자동식소화기가 개발되었다 본 논문에서는 자동식 소화기의 핵심 기능인 열감지부의 최적 성능을 찾기 위하여 감지부 형상과 가열속도에 따른 작동온도와 응답특성 관계를 규명하였다. 자동감지소화기의 감지부의 이융성금속과 캡의 경우 두 재질 모두 열전도성이 우수한 금속임에도 불구하고, 각각의 미소한 두께변화는 주변 대기의 가열속도가 낮을수록 작동온도에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 이융성금속 및 캡의 두께를 얇게 할수록 선형적으로 감소하였으며 작동시간을 최고 40초까지 단축할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

  • The rapid progress toward the 4th industrial society has led to possibilities of fire increase. It is pointed out that, though initial fire suppression is emphasized, the current legal systems do not sufficiently recognize the importance of initial fire suppression. In order to resolve this, problems of the current legal systems and regulations, as well as fire-fighting facilities to be equipped according to the size of specific fire-fighting objects, were diagnosed. Also, suggestions for improvement were provided through comparative analysis with relevant laws and technical regulations of Korea and other countries. According to fire safety standards such as NFPA, IMO, ISO, and Russian standards, automatic fire extinguishers are to be installed as per the adaptability criteria of fire extinguishers and automatic fire extinguishers. In Korea, the "Act on Fire Prevention and Installation, Maintenance, and Safety Control of Fire-fighting Systems" cover the types and scope of fire fighting facilities that include specific fire protection objects, such as electric room, power room, and substation room. This study has identified that, in case of a place with a floor area of less than $300m^2$, the installation requirement is not clearly specified. Therefore, in this study, fire extinguishing equipment and automatic fire extinguishing equipment to be added for each sub-use application are proved to have fire extinguishing performance of Class A, Class B, and Class C, respectively. In view of the fact that, in overseas standards, all space except containing such materials as Deep fire, metal fire and peroxide, can be installed with fire fighting equipment, a legal system for specifying the capacity units of fire fighting apparatus by application is, in this study, proposed.

  • In recent years, the number of vehicle fires, as well as the number of motor vehicles, has been increasing rapidly. Therefore, several types of automatic fire suppression systems for the engine compartment of automobiles have been developed to extinguish automobile fires, and most of these systems use halon 1301 as a fire extinguishing agent. Due to environmental concerns, the phase-out of halons has been announced, so now there is a need to replace halon 1301. For this, a 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptaflouropropane (HFC-227ea, FM-$200^{TM}$) gas-filled Aqueous Film- Forming foam (known as AFFF) extinguisher was devised even though air foam extinguishers could be used. This is because the air in the foam bubbles is a source of oxygen required for the combustion reaction. It can be surmised that it is possible to increase the fire extinguishing efficiency of AFFF by filling in foam bubbles with a gaseous extinguishing agent. The best choice is the FM-$200^{TM}$ gas-filled AFFF, Which has the maximum expansion ratio of 62:1. This makes it possible for the expanded foam to rapidly fill the engine compartment.

  • 본 논문에서는 가스안전에 적합한 무선 ZigBee통신모듈과 스마트 홈 가스안전기기 및 관리시스템 개발하여 가스안전관리의 효율을 향상시키는 시스템과 시나리오를 제안하였다. 제안한 시스템은 마이컴가스미터, 자동식소화기, 감지기 및 월패드로 구성된다. 마이컴미터는 가스압력, 가스유량, 지진을 모니터링한다. 자동식소화기는 가연성 가스의 누출상태, $100^{\circ}C$(차단)와 $139^{\circ}C$(화재)의 온도를 측정하며, 감지기는 연기와 일산화탄소(CO)를 검지한다. 제안한 시스템에서 가스사용중 이상상태발생시 마이컴가스미터는 경보와 함께 내부밸브를 차단시키고, 자동식소화기는 중간가스밸브를 차단하거나 소화약재를 분사시킨다. 감지기는 연기와 CO를 감지할 경우 각각 신호를 발생시켜 후속조치를 취하게 한다. 가스안전기기와 센서들은 자동적으로 조치를 취하고 그 정보를 월패드로 전달한다. 월패드는 실시간 상황정보를 서버에게 전달하고 사용자는 웹이나 모바일 앱을 통하여 서버에 접속하여 가스의 상황정보를 확인하거나 관리할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 스마트기반 가스안전 및 위험관리의 시나리오를 고안하고 현장적용시험을 통하여 그 효율성을 증명하였다.
