Sprinkler Fire Suppression Algorithm for the GSA Engineering Fire AssessmentSystem

摘要

A study was conducted to develop a sprinkler fire suppression algorithm for usewith sprinkler activation time models. Large scale experiments were performed to determine the heat release rate (HRR) of selected office fuel packages with and without sprinklers operating. Eight different fuel packages were evaluated. The results from these experiments were used to develop a time dependent HRR reduction factor.
