Two Real Room Fire and the Evaluation of Its Consequences in Terms of Fire Safety
(Elsevier, 2023) Altin, Mustafa; Kilicarslan, Muhammed Furkan
In this study, 1/1 scale Fire Experiment Laboratory was built to demonstrate the reality of fire with a real fire. In the prepared building, there are 2 fire test rooms measuring 300 x 350cm and 1 observation room measuring 190 x 620cm. In the fire tests, a living room and a bedroom were furnished by calculating the required fire loads. In the fire load calculation, a fire index value of 1.18 was obtained in the bedroom and a fire index value of 1.86 was obtained in the living room. Instant temperature values were taken for each second in the lower, middle and top zones of the fire rooms. The bedroom reached maximum temperatures around 1200 degrees C in the top zone, 800 degrees C in the middle zone and 400 degrees C in the lower zone. And in the living room, maximum temperatures were measured at around 900 degrees C in the top zone, 600 degrees C in the middle zone and 300 degrees C in the lower zone. Moreover, temperature changes outside the building were also recorded. According to the thermal camera images measured, the external wall temperature of the bedroom is around 25-31 degrees C at maximum temperature and the external wall temperature of the living room is around 41-46 degrees C at maximum temperature.
