도로터널은 입구와 출구를 제외한 모든 면이 막혀있는 반밀폐공간으로 화재가 발생할 경우 화재 연기는 화재로 인한 열부력과 터널 내 상시 존재하는 기류에 의해 종방향으로 확산하게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 도로터널에는 연기의 이동방향을 제어하거나 화재지점에서 직접 배연함으로써 안전한 대피환경을 확보하고 신속한 구조 및 소화 활동을 위해 제연 설비를 설치하고 있다. 도심지에서는 인구 증가에 따른 교통량 증가로 인해 도심지 도로의 서비스 수준이 저하되어 극심한 정체현상이 빗어지고 있으며, 이에 대한 해결방안으로 도심지에 지하도로의 건설이 증가하고 있는 추세이다. 수소연료전지차(FCEV)의 TPRD를 통한 수소 누출 시 화재가 발생하는 경우, 화재강도는 누출량에 의존하며, 최대 화재강도는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경에 따라 달라진다. 본 연구에서는 TPRD의 오리피스 직경 1.8 mm를 고려하여 최대 화재강도가 15 MW일 때, 소형차전용터널 내 차도 풍속과 대배기구의 개방 간격에 따른 화재연기의 확산거리에 대해 분석하였다. 그 결과, 터널 내 차도 풍속이 1.25 m/s 이하인 경우 터널 내 기류제어가 가능하였으며, 댐퍼 간격이 50 m, 100 m 인 경우 화재로부터 200 m 범위 이내에서 제연이 가능한 것으로 분석됐다.

Mathematical modeling and numerical calculation on the flow and thermal characteristics induced by fire in a partial enclosure are performed. The solution procedures include the Shvab-Zeldovich approximation for the physical transport equations, low Reynolds number k-.epsilon. model for the turbulent fluid flow and Discrete Ordinate method(DOM) to calculate the radiative heat transfer. PMMA(Polymethylmethacrylate) is adopted as a solid fuel. Two different cases are considered : combustions with and without gas radiation occuring in a open cavity for variable pyrolyzing location of PMMA. When the fire source is located at the left-wall, the flow region of flame gas is limited at the left-wall and ceiling and recirculation region of inlet gas is formulated at neat the floor. In case of neglecting the radiative heat transfer, more large flame size and higher temperature is predicted. It is essential to consider the radiative heat transfer for analysis of fire phenomenon.

A study developing the dry powder fire extinguishing system inside the simulated machinery spaces of small ship was performed. Fire tests were conducted inside the compartments having volums 8$m^3$, 2.9$m^3$ and 4.5$m^3$ respectively. The openings and fans were established on the walls of the compartments. Diesel oil was used for the test fuel. In addition fire extinguishing nozzles using dry powder were installed downward at ceiling and horizontally at the wall or conner. All fires in the test were extinguished under system activation and there was no reignition.

In this study, numerical simulations were carried out to analyze the effect of the smoke extraction system and fire shutters in subway station fires using FDS 4.0. Subway station used in the experiment was 205 m long. Simulation results are validated by comparing with experimental results. Simulation results showed good agreement with experimental results within $20\;^{\circ}C$. 20 MW polystyrene was used as a fuel in the numerical prediction. Numerical predictions were performed in the side-platform type subway station in case of a train fire. Temperature and CO concentration were lowered by the operation of smoke extraction system.

Halon was known as a cause of the ozone layer destruction. In 1987, it was designated as one of the ozone-layer-destroying materials in the Montreal Protocol. Therefore substitutes of Halon agent has been developed including inert gas extinguish system, which is one of the most widely used fire extinguishing system. This study intended to increase the efficiency of inert gas extinguishing agent by using inert gas additives. As IG-541 shows high extinguishing power, the experiment was performed to measure the effects of gaseous additives to it. Cup-burner fire extinguishing apparatus was used with n-Heptane fuel. Among many of pure inert gaseous agents, Helium showed the most excellent extinguishing power. When Helium was added to IG-541, fire extinguishing power was increased and the concentration of oxygen in chimney also risen. By adding Helium to IG-541, the effectiveness of inert gas fire extinguishing system is able to be increased.

In this study, numerical simulations were carried out to analyze the effect of the smoke extraction system and fire shutters in subway station fires using FDS 4.0. Subway station used in the experiment was 145 m long. Simulation results are validated by comparing with experimental results. Simulation results showed good agreement with experimental results within $10^{\circ}C$. 10 MW polystyrene was used as a fuel in the numerical prediction. Numerical predictions were performed in the center-platform type subway station in case of a kiosk fire. Temperature and CO concentration were lowered by the operation of smoke extraction system. But, the operation of fire shutters had little effect on temperature and CO concentration in the platform level.

과환기 화재조건에서 화원과 측벽의 거리에 따른 화재특성에 관한 실험 및 수치해석 연구가 수행되었다. 1/3 축소된 ISO 9705 화재실이 제작되었으며, Spruce wood crib이 연료로 사용되었다. 구획 내부의 현상 이해를 위하여 Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS)를 활용한 시뮬레이션이 수행되었다. 개방된 공간 화재에 비해 구획실 화재는 벽면의 열 피드백 효과로 인하여 질량 감소율과 열발생률이 증가됨이 확인되었다. 측벽과 화원의 거리가 감소됨에 따라 화염으로의 공기 유입 제한에도 불구하고 주요 화재특성인 최대 질량 감소율, 열발생률, 화재 성장률, 온도 및 열유속이 증가되었다. 특히 측벽과 화원이 접촉되었을 때 이들 물리량의 가장 큰 변화가 확인되었다. 추가로 화원과 측벽의 거리에 따른 구획 내부의 유동구조의 변화로 인하여 온도의 수직분포에 상당한 변화가 발생됨이 확인되었다.

The Numerical simulation was performed on the flow field around the two-dimensional rectangular bluff body in order to complement the previous experimental results of the bluff body stabilized flames [1]. For both fuel ejection configurations against an oxidizer stream, the flame stability was affected mainly by vortex structure and mixing field near bluff body. FDS(Fire Dynamic Simulator) based on the LES(Large Eddy Simulation) was employed to clarify the isothermal mixing characteristic and wake flow pattern around bluff body. The air used atmosphere and the fuel used methane. The result of counter flow configuration shows that the flow field depends on air velocity but the mixing field is influenced on the fuel velocity. At low fuel velocity the fuel mole fraction is below the flammable limit and hence the mixing is insufficient to react. Therefore, as the result, the flame formed at low fuel velocity is characterized by non-premixed flames. For the flow field of co-flow configuration, flame stability was affected by fuel velocity as well as air velocity. the vortex generated by fuel stream has counter rotating direction against the air stream. Therefore, the momentum ratio between air and fuel stream was important to decide the flame blow out limit, which is result in the characteristic of the partially premixed reacting wake near extinction.

산불은 대표적인 산림생태계의 재해 중 하나로 최근, 우리나라에서도 빈번하게 발생하고 있으며, 일반적으로 광범위한 지역에 빠른 속도로 확산되는 특징을 가지고 있다. 바람 및 나무의 종류, 다양한 지형 요소들이 산불 발생 시 급진적 확산에 영향을 주는 요소들이다. 산불의 빠른 확산은 생태계 교란 및 재산 피해, 인명 피해 등을 야기 시킨다. 이러한 이유로, 최근 산불에 관련된 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 바람 요인이 고려된 산불 패턴 가상 시뮬레이션 단순 모델을 제안하였고, 셀룰라오토마타(Cellular Automata)의 격자 기반으로 구성 되었다. 모델의 시뮬레이션을 통하여, 바람의 세기 변화, 주어진 공간에 분포해 있는 나무 전체의 밀도, 그리고, 나무들 가운데 가연성이 높은 나무의 밀도가 산불확산에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 민감도 분석 결과, 전체 나무 밀도가 세 가지 요소 중 산불확산에 가장 민감하게 기여하였으며, 그 다음으로는 바람의 영향, 마지막으로 가연성이 높은 나무의 밀도 순으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 제안한 산불확산 시뮬레이션 모델 및 분석 결과는 실제 산불 확산 및 억제 전략 수립에 활용되어 질 수 있을 것으로 여겨지며, 아울러 좀 더 현실적인 생태학적 요소들을 모델에 고려함으로써 산불확산 예측 연구에도 이용되어 질 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

In order to investigate the fire-induced smoke movement in a three-dimensional room with an open door, numerical and experimental study was performed. The center, wall, and corner fire plumes for various sized fires were studied experimentally in a rectangular pool fire using methanol as a fuel. The numerical results from a self-developed SMEP (Smoke Movement Estimating Program) field model were compared with experimental results obtained in this and from literature. Comparisons of SMEP and experimental results have shown reasonable agreement. As the fire strength became larger for the center fires, the air mass flow rate in the door, average hot layer temperature, flame angle and mean flame height were observed to increase but the doorway-neutral-planeheight and the steady-state time were observed to decrease. Also as the wall effect became larger in room fires, the hot layer temperature, mean flame height, doorway-neutral-planeheight and steady-state time were observed to increase. In the egress point of view considering the smoke filling time and the early spread of plume in the room space, the results of the center fire appeared to be more dangerous as compared with the wall and the corner fire. Thus it is necessary to consider the wall effect as an important factor in designing efficient fire protection systems.
