Basic Research on Potential Application of Fire Detection by Measuring Fire Detection Tendency of Indoor Air Quality Measurement Factors
This is a basic research on potential application of fire detection by measuring fire detection tendency of indoor air quality measurement factors. In this study, operation experiment using smoke detector sensitivity tester and paper fire experiment specified in UL 268 standards were conducted to evaluate the fire detection tendency of indoor air quality measurement factors. Based on the cross-substitution of values measured in the paper fire experiment, PM10 (excluding average) and HCHO (excluding average and maximum) for the indoor air quality meter (IAQ); PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10 for IAQ S2; and CO (excluding the average and maximum) for combustion gas analyzers showed consistent tendency despite changes in the measured values for smoke generation under all experimental conditions. In particular, PM10 and CO are considered the most applicable fire detection factors among the factors measured in the experiment.
