| Description | Journal: Iop Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering This research is based on studying the capability of automatic sprinkler systems by applying fire dynamics simulation. The selection of scenarios based on NFPA 101. A warehouse containing diving instrument in carton placed on wood pallets, which can cause class A fires. To prevent potential damage to the goods, the conflagration in this specific scenarios is simulated to study the effects of temperature on the roof deterioration, the proficiency of the automatic sprinkler systems to extinguish the fire. Researchers found that the sprinklers located on the ceiling of the warehouse are not able to put out the fire but are able to control further spreading of the fire. Researchers, then, install more fire sprinklers in the racks, following the standard from NFPA 13. Results have shown that the second set of sprinklers is not capable of extinguishing the fire but controlling the spread and significantly reducing the temperature. Furthermore, installing both sets of fire sprinklers can prevent the collapse of the roof. |
