This material provides answers to questions from designers related to the design features and operational efficiency of automatic fire extinguishing systems.
Please tell me, in the case when a hydraulic calculation is made of an AUP combined with an internal fire water supply system (ERW), is it necessary to add additional pressure at the point of connection of the taps, which is required at the fire hydrant? For example, at point N the pressure is 0.26 MPa, a paired PC is connected to it (according to Table 3 SP 10.13130.2009 P = 0.1 MPa), is it necessary to sum: 0.26 + 2 × 0.1 = 0, 46?
When hydraulically calculating a fire control system combined with an internal fire water supply system, it is imperative to take into account the flow rate of fire hydrants.
As a rule, designers determine the total flow rate using the formula:
Q total = Q AUP + Q ERW.
For example, estimated flow Q AUP is 10 l/s, and with the table value of the number of fire hydrants for calculating water consumption - 2 pcs. With a flow rate of each fire nozzle of 2.5 l/s, the ERW flow rate is assumed to be 5 l/s. From here Q the total is taken to be 15 l/s, which is completely incorrect.
What mistakes were made here? How should PC consumption be taken into account and calculated correctly? Q generally?
It is unacceptable to determine the ERW flow rate as Q ERW = 2.5 × 2 = 5 l/s. Calculation of the total flow rate of ERW not combined with the fire control valve begins with determining the flow rate of the dictating fire valve depending on the height of the room, the diameter of the fire shut-off valve of the fire valve (and therefore the diameter of the fire hose), the length of the fire hose and the diameter of the outlet of the manual fire nozzle ( see, for example, Table 3 SP 10.13130.2009).
With an ERW combined with an AUP, it is advisable to find a point on the supply pipeline with a pressure close to, but not less than, the pressure that is required to ensure this flow rate at the selected outlet diameter of the fire nozzle, the nominal diameter of the fire shut-off valve PC and the length of the fire hose (connection of the PC to distribution pipeline is not allowed due to the fact that its diameter is usually less than DN 50).
If the connection point of the fire hydrant pipeline is selected arbitrarily (depending on the geometric location of the fire hydrant in the room), then taking into account the required water flow for the PC, which can be taken from the table. 3 SP 10.13130.2009, the pressure at the connection point between the PK pipeline and the AUP supply pipeline is specified (taking into account pressure losses along the length of the pipeline, local losses and the piezometric height difference between the AUP and PK supply pipeline). The pressure at this point, calculated according to the AUP hydraulic diagram, must be no less than the pressure at this point, calculated for the PC, and taking into account this difference in pressure, the PC flow rate and, accordingly, the total flow rate at this point are adjusted.
If the pressure at the point of connection of the fire hydrant pipeline to the AUP supply pipeline, calculated according to the PC flow rate, is greater than that calculated according to the hydraulic diagram of the AUP, then the pressure of the dictating sprinkler must be adjusted (increasingly) so that at the point of connection of the pipelines an approximate equality of the calculated pressures is observed .
Similarly, the connection point to the supply pipeline of the AUP pipeline of the second PC is determined, and the total flow rate is determined Q total
Thus, at the point of connection of the AUP supply pipeline with the PC pipeline It's not the pressure that adds up, and the consumption of AUP and the consumption of PC.
The maximum radius of action of the sprinkler is approximately 2 m (area 12 m2). The maximum distance between sprinklers is 4 m. Areas with unknown irrigation intensity are formed between the irrigation circles. How to determine whether at least 50% intensity is provided in these areas (according to NPB 87–2000). Or should the distance between sprinklers be reduced to 2.8 m to avoid these areas?
According to GOST R 51043.2002 (which came into force to replace NPB 87–2000), the circular irrigation area must be at least 12 m2 (radius ≈ 2 m), and the irrigation intensity must correspond to the standard, depending on the group of premises according to SP5.13130.2009. But, naturally, irrigation is not limited to irrigating only the area within S 12 = 12 m2. The true irrigation area is S ≈ (1,3–1,7) S 12, i.e. it significantly exceeds the standard value of the protected area.
Depending on the type of sprinkler, the irrigation intensity on this additional area from each sprinkler is (0.2–0.7) I(from the standard value of irrigation intensity I). Therefore, in the central zone between four sprinklers, as a rule, the irrigation intensity exceeds 50% of the standard value, and sometimes it can be higher than this value (detailed information can be obtained from the educational manual (Meshman L.I. et al. Automatic water and foam fire extinguishing installations. Design. M.: VNIIPO, 2009. – 572 p.) or from the educational manual (Meshman L.M. et al. Sprinklers for water and foam automatic fire extinguishing installations. M.: VNIIPO, 2002. – 315 With.).
Therefore, with a distance between sprinklers of 4 m, the area protected by each sprinkler is conditionally accepted S= 16 m 2. For example, if the estimated area of the AUP for the 1st group of premises is 60 m2, then the minimum estimated number of sprinklers will be 4 pieces. (60 m2: 16 m2 ≈ 4 pcs.); accordingly, for the 2nd group of premises – 8 pcs. (120 m2: 16 m2 ≈ 8 pcs.).
The distribution pipeline of the fire extinguishing installation is laid with a slope of 0.005 under a flat ceiling. According to SP5.13130.2009, from the sprinkler flask to the ceiling is 0.08–0.30 m and, thus, regardless of the slope of the main highway, all sprinklers must be located in this interval. So, to install the first sprinkler you need a 100 mm long insert, and for the last – 600 mm so that they are in line?
The slope of the AUP pipelines is provided to ensure, if necessary, the evacuation of water from them. The distance from the center of the sprinkler flask to the overlap plane should be in the range from 0.08 to 0.30 m. In exceptional cases, this distance can be increased to 0.40 m. If, with a slope and a certain length of the pipeline, the distance from the center of the sprinkler flask to the overlap plane exceeds 0.40 m, then it is necessary to install a drain valve in this place (at the lowest point) to drain the water and raise the pipe up so that the distance from the center of the visible part of the flask to the ceiling is at least 0.08 m, and then this new the pipe section must be laid with the required slope.
At the request of the customer, the distribution network of the sprinkler installation based on the double activation system in the cross-connection and server rooms should not be filled with water. The premises are located in an existing business center and occupy four floors. There are approximately two rooms for this purpose on each floor. Water will only be released into the system if the smoke detector and sprinkler are activated simultaneously. Triggering of only one equipment without the simultaneous triggering of another will not allow water to get inside the pipeline network of cross-country and server AUPs. Is it possible to envisage such a scheme?
The proposed installations are discussed in clause 5.6 of SP 5.13130.2009.
Depending on the requirements for speed and exclusion of false alarms, the following types of sprinkler-drencher AUP-SD are used:
The choice of the type of sprinkler-drencher AUP-SD is determined by minimizing damage from the consequences of false or unauthorized activations of the AUP:
Water-filled AUP-SVD - for premises where increased speed of AUP is required and minor spills of fire extinguishing agent are permissible in case of damage or false activation of sprinklers - in standby mode, the supply and distribution pipelines are filled with water, and the supply of fire extinguishing agent to the protected area is carried out only when the automatic fire alarm is activated detector and sprinkler switched on according to the logical “AND” circuit;
Air AUP-SVzD (1) - for rooms with positive and negative temperatures, where spills of waste water are undesirable in the event of damage or false operation of sprinklers - in standby mode, the supply and distribution pipelines are filled with air under pressure. Filling of these pipelines with a fire extinguishing agent occurs only when an automatic fire detector is triggered, and the supply of fire extinguishing agent to the protected area is carried out only when an automatic fire detector and a sprinkler switched on according to the “AND” logic circuit are triggered;
Airborne AUP-SVZD (2) - for rooms with positive and negative temperatures, where it is necessary to exclude the supply of fire extinguishing agent into the pipeline system due to false alarms of automatic fire detectors, as well as spills of fire extinguishing agent due to damage or false operation of sprinklers, - in the duty room mode, the supply and distribution pipelines are filled with air under pressure. Filling of these pipelines with fire extinguishing agent and supply of fire extinguishing agent to the protected area occurs only when an automatic fire detector and sprinkler switched on according to the “AND” logic circuit are triggered.
It should be taken into account that, as a rule, gas AUPs are used to protect cross-connect and server ones.
It is required to design a fire extinguishing sprinkler installation for a warehouse of the 6th group (with a storage height of up to 11 m, building height 14 m), which is not covered by clause 1.3 of SP 5.13130. Analysis of information on forums allows us to conclude that you can use either high-performance sprinklers (ESFR/SOBR), performing calculations based on their STU, or TRV sprinklers. What is more appropriate in this case?
The design of high-rack warehouses should be carried out according to SP 241.13130.2015, or according to VNPB 40–16 “Automatic water fire extinguishing installations “AUP-Gefest”. Design. STO 420541.004”, or according to STO 7.3–02–2011 “Water fire extinguishing installations with finely sprayed water using Breeze ® sprayers”. Design Guide".
The use of finely atomized water sprinklers compared to ESFR/SOBR sprinklers can dramatically reduce water consumption, however, AUPs equipped with sprayers are less effective in extinguishing fires in rooms of groups 6 and 7 according to SP 5.13130.2009. The final choice of ESFR/SOBR sprinklers or finely atomized water sprayers is determined by a feasibility study, the availability of appropriate AUP at the site, the qualifications of operating personnel, etc.
There is a cold high-rack warehouse. SOBR sprinklers are used. However, due to the fact that the pipe diameters are large, the total volume of the air section is also large - about 25 m3. Is it possible to design an AUP with the following operating algorithm: provide a deluge control unit. Before the control unit, the AUP pipelines are filled with water, after it - air without pressure. When the fire detectors of the substation are triggered, the control unit opens and water fills the pipelines. If the response is not false, when the temperature-sensitive bulb of the sprinkler is destroyed, irrigation begins. This scheme has the following advantages:
At the same time, the definition of air-drencher AUPs according to SP5 contains the phrase “air ducts are filled with air under pressure.”
It turns out that it is formally impossible to design a system without air pressure?
The requirements of regulatory documents should not hinder technical progress. If advanced design solutions emerge, they can be agreed upon for application according to established procedures.
It is quite possible to use a deluge AUP with sprinklers instead of an air sprinkler AUP, but it is necessary to correctly determine all the advantages of using this option. Firstly, it will require the installation of a fire alarm system with numerous fire detectors, which must be serviced by more highly qualified specialists. Secondly, 25 m 3 of air remains in the pipeline system. Depending on the configuration of the distribution network and the location of the triggered sprinkler, the release of air through it can occur after a considerable time (more than 3 minutes - it all depends on the complexity of the AUP distribution network and the location of the sprinkler).
As an option, we can propose the use of a deluge AUP with sprinklers and a slight excess pressure in the supply and distribution pipelines. The advantage compared to the recommended scheme is the lack of installation of a fire alarm with numerous fire detectors; the disadvantage is a slight decrease in the speed of water supply to the protected object. However, if the AUP is divided into several independent sections, then significant performance can be achieved (see, for example, the application for an invention: Meshman L. M. et al. Method for increasing the performance of an air sprinkler fire extinguishing installation (options) and a device for its implementation (options) IPC A62C 35/00, filing date 05.2017).
As another option, we can propose the use of a deluge AUP using sprinklers with start control or sprinklers equipped with a start control and forced start device (see, for example, Meshman L. M. et al. Method of controlling an air fire extinguishing installation and a device for it implementation: Patent RU No. 2 610 816, A62C 35/00. Published 02.15.2017. Bulletin No. 5).

Introduction
Automatic water fire extinguishing systems are currently the most widespread. They are used over large areas to protect shopping and multifunctional centers, administrative buildings, sports complexes, hotels, businesses, garages and parking lots, banks, energy facilities, military and special-purpose facilities, warehouses, residential buildings and cottages.
My version of the assignment presents a facility for the production of alcohols and ethers with utility rooms, which, in accordance with clause 20 of Table A.1 of Appendix A of Code of Practice 5.13130.2009, regardless of the area, must have an automatic fire extinguishing system. In accordance with the requirements of this table, it is not necessary to equip the remaining utility rooms of the facility with an automatic fire extinguishing system. The walls and ceilings are reinforced concrete.
The main types of fire loads are alcohols and ethers. In accordance with the table, we decide that it is possible to use a foaming agent solution for extinguishing.
The main fire load in a facility with a room height of 4 meters comes from the repair area, which, in accordance with the table in Appendix B of the set of rules 5.13130.2009, belongs to group 4.2 of premises according to the degree of fire hazard, depending on their functional purpose and the fire load of combustible materials.
The facility does not have premises of categories A and B for explosion and fire hazards in accordance with SP 5.13130.2009 and explosive zones in accordance with the PUE.
To extinguish possible fires in the facility, taking into account the existing flammable load, it is possible to use a foaming agent solution.
To equip a facility for the production of alcohols and ethers, we will choose an automatic sprinkler-type foam fire extinguishing installation filled with a foaming agent solution. Foaming agents mean concentrated aqueous solutions of surfactants (surfactants) intended to produce special solutions of wetting agents or foam. The use of such foaming agents during fire extinguishing can significantly reduce the intensity of combustion within 1.5-2 minutes. The methods of influencing the source of ignition depend on the type of foaming agent used in the fire extinguisher, but the basic principles of operation are the same for all:
due to the fact that the foam has a mass significantly less than the mass of any flammable liquid, it covers the surface of the fuel, thereby suppressing the fire;
the use of water, which is part of the foaming agent, allows, within a few seconds, to reduce the temperature of the fuel to a level at which combustion becomes impossible;
the foam effectively prevents the hot fumes generated by the fire from spreading further, making re-ignition virtually impossible.
Thanks to these features, foam concentrates are actively used for fire extinguishing in the petrochemical and chemical industries, where there is a high risk of ignition of flammable and flammable liquids. These substances do not pose a threat to human health or life, and traces of them can be easily removed from premises.
1. Initial data
Hydraulic calculations are carried out in accordance with the requirements of SP 5.13130.2009 “Fire extinguishing and alarm installations. Design standards and rules” according to the methodology set out in Appendix B.
The protected object is a room volume of 30x48x4m, in plan - a rectangle. The total area of the facility is 1440 m2.
We find the initial data for the production of alcohols and ethers in accordance with a certain group of premises from Table 5.1 of this set of rules in the section “Water and foam fire extinguishing installations”:
irrigation intensity - 0.17 l/(s*m2);
area for calculating water consumption - 180 m2;
minimum water consumption of fire extinguishing installation - 65 l/s;
the maximum distance between sprinklers is 3 m;
The selected maximum area controlled by one sprinkler is 12m2.
operating time - 60 min.
To protect the warehouse, we select the sprinkler SPO0-RUo(d)0.74-R1/2/P57(68,79,93,141,182).V3-"SPU-15" PO "SPETSAVTOMATIKA" with a performance coefficient k = 0.74 (according to technical .documentation for the sprinkler).
2. Calculation formulas
The estimated water flow through the dictating sprinkler located in the dictating protected irrigated area is determined by the formula
where q1 is the consumption of waste water through the dictating sprinkler, l/s; is the sprinkler performance coefficient accepted according to the technical documentation for the product, l/(s MPa0.5);
P - pressure in front of the sprinkler, MPa.
The flow rate of the first dictating sprinkler is the calculated value of Q1-2 in the section L1-2 between the first and second sprinklers
The diameter of the pipeline in section L1-2 is assigned by the designer or determined by the formula
where d1-2 is the diameter between the first and second sprinklers of the pipeline, mm; -2 is the waste water consumption, l/s;
μ - flow coefficient; - water movement speed, m/s (should not exceed 10 m/s).
The diameter is increased to the nearest nominal value according to GOST 28338.
Pressure loss P1-2 in section L1-2 is determined by the formula
where Q1-2 is the total flow rate of the first and second sprinklers, l/s; t is the specific characteristics of the pipeline, l6/s2;
A is the specific resistance of the pipeline, depending on the diameter and roughness of the walls, c2/l6.
The resistivity and specific hydraulic characteristics of pipelines for pipes (made of carbon materials) of various diameters are given in table B.1<#"606542.files/image005.gif">
The hydraulic characteristics of the rows, made structurally identical, are determined by the generalized characteristics of the design section of the pipeline.
The generalized characteristic of row I is determined from the expression
The pressure loss in section a-b for symmetrical and asymmetrical schemes is found using the formula.
The pressure at point b will be
Рb=Pa+Pa-b.
Water consumption from row II is determined by the formula
The calculation of all subsequent rows until the calculated (actual) water flow rate and the corresponding pressure are obtained is similar to the calculation of row II.
We calculate symmetrical and asymmetrical ring circuits in the same way as a dead-end network, but at 50% of the calculated water flow for each half-ring.
3. Basic principles of operation of a fire extinguishing installation
An automatic fire extinguishing installation consists of the following main elements: an automatic fire extinguishing pumping station with a system of inlet (suction) and supply (pressure) pipelines; - control units with a system of supply and distribution pipelines with sprinklers installed on them.
1 Operating principle of the pumping station
In standby mode, the supply and distribution pipelines of sprinkler systems are constantly filled with water and are under pressure, ensuring constant readiness to extinguish a fire. The jockey pump turns on when the pressure alarm is activated.
In the event of a fire, when the pressure on the jockey pump (in the supply pipeline) drops, when the pressure alarm is triggered, the working fire pump is turned on, providing full flow. At the same time, when the fire pump is turned on, a fire alarm signal is sent to the fire safety system of the facility.
If the electric motor of the working fire pump does not turn on or the pump does not provide the design pressure, then after 10 s the electric motor of the backup fire pump turns on. The impulse to turn on the backup pump is supplied from a pressure switch installed on the pressure pipeline of the working pump.
When the working fire pump is turned on, the jockey pump is automatically turned off. After the fire has been eliminated, the water supply to the system is stopped manually, for which the fire pumps are turned off and the valve in front of the control unit is closed.
3.2 Operating principle of the sprinkler system
If a fire occurs in the room protected by the sprinkler section and the air temperature rises above 68 "C, the thermal lock (glass bulb) of the sprinkler is destroyed. Water, which is under pressure in the distribution pipelines, pushes out the valve that blocks the outlet of the sprinkler, and it opens. Water from the sprinkler enters the room; the pressure in the network drops. When the pressure drops by 0.1 MPa, pressure alarms installed on the pressure pipeline are triggered, and a pulse is given to turn on the working pump.
The pump takes water from the city water supply network, bypassing the water metering unit, and supplies it to the piping system of the fire extinguishing installation. In this case, the jockey pump is automatically switched off. When a fire occurs on one of the floors, liquid flow detectors duplicate signals about the activation of the water fire extinguishing installation (thereby identifying the location of the fire) and simultaneously turn off the power supply system of the corresponding floor.
Simultaneously with the automatic activation of the fire extinguishing installation, signals about a fire, the activation of pumps and the start of operation of the installation in the appropriate direction are transmitted to the premises of the fire post with round-the-clock presence of operational personnel. In this case, the light alarm is accompanied by an audible alarm.
4. Design of a water fire extinguishing installation. Hydraulic calculation
Hydraulic calculations are carried out for the most remote and highly located (“dictating”) sprinkler under the condition that all sprinklers that are furthest from the water feeder and mounted on the design area are activated.
We outline the routing of the pipeline network and the layout plan for sprinklers and select the dictating protected irrigated area on the hydraulic plan diagram of the AUP, on which the dictating sprinkler is located, and carry out a hydraulic calculation of the AUP.
Determination of the estimated water flow over the protected area.
The determination of flow and pressure in front of the “dictating sprinkler” (flow at point 1 on the diagram in Appendix 1) is determined by the formula:
=k √ H
The flow rate of the “dictating” sprinkler must ensure the standard irrigation intensity, therefore:
min = I*S=0.17 * 12 = 2.04 l/s, thus Q1 ≥ 2.04 l/s
Note. When calculating, it is necessary to take into account the number of sprinklers protecting the calculated area. On a calculated area of 180 m2 there are 4 rows of 5 and 4 sprinklers, the total flow rate must be at least 60 l/s (see Table 5.2 SP 5.13130.2009 for 4.2 group of premises). Thus, when calculating the pressure in front of the “dictating” sprinkler, it is necessary to take into account that in order to ensure the minimum required flow rate of the fire extinguishing installation, the flow rate (and therefore the pressure) of each sprinkler will have to be increased. That is, in our case, if the flow rate from the sprinkler is taken equal to 2.04 l/s, then the total flow rate of 18 sprinklers will be approximately equal to 2.04 * 18 = 37 l/s, and taking into account the different pressure in front of the sprinklers it will be slightly more, but this value does not correspond to the required flow rate of 65 l/s. Thus, it is necessary to select the pressure in front of the sprinkler so that the total flow rate of 18 sprinklers located on the design area is more than 65 l/s. For this: 65/18=3.611, i.e. the flow rate of the dictating sprinkler should be more than 3.6 l/s. Having carried out several variants of calculations in the draft, we determine the required pressure in front of the “dictating” sprinkler. In our case, H=24 m.v.s.=0.024 MPa.
(1) =k √ H= 0.74√24= 3.625 l/s;
Let's calculate the diameter of the pipeline in a row using the following formula:
From where we get, at a water flow speed of 5 m/s, the value d = 40 mm and take the value of 50 mm for the reserve.
Pressure loss in section 1-2: dH(1-2)= Q(1) *Q(1) *l(1-2) / Km= 3.625*3.625*6/110=0.717 m.w.s.= 0.007MPa;
To determine the flow rate from the 2nd sprinkler, we calculate the pressure in front of the 2nd sprinkler:
H(2)=H(1)+ dH(1-2)=24+0.717=24.717 m.v.s.
Flow from the 2nd sprinkler: Q(2) =k √ H= 0.74√24.717= 3.679 l/s;
Pressure loss in section 2-3: dH(2-3)= (Q(1) + Q(2))*(Q(1) + Q(2))*l(2-3) / Km= 7.304* 7.304*1.5/110=0.727 m.v. With;
Pressure at point 3: Н(3)=Н(2)+ dH(2-3)= 24.717+0.727=25.444 m.v.s;
The total flow rate of the right branch of the first row is Q1 + Q2 = 7.304 l/s.
Since the right and left branches of the first row are structurally identical (2 sprinklers each), the flow rate of the left branch will also be equal to 7.304 l/s. The total flow rate of the first row is Q I = 14.608 l/s.
The flow rate in point 3 is divided in half, since the supply pipeline is made as a dead end. Therefore, when calculating pressure losses in section 4-5, the flow rate of the first row will be taken into account. Q(3-4) = 14.608 l/s.
We will accept the value d=150 mm for the main pipeline.
Pressure loss in section 3-4:
(3-4)=Q(3)*Q(3)*l(3-4)/Km= 14.608 *14.608 *3/36920=0.017 m.v. With;
Pressure at point 4: Н(4)=Н(3)+ dH(3-4)= 25.444+0.017=25.461 m.v. With;
To determine the flow rate of the 2nd row, it is necessary to determine coefficient B:
That is, B= Q(3)*Q(3)/H(3)=8.39
Thus, the consumption of the 2nd row is equal to:
II= √8, 39*24.918= 14.616 l/s;
Total flow rate from 2 rows: QI +QII = 14.608+14.616 =29.224 l/s;
Similarly, I find (4-5)=Q(4)*Q(4)*l(4-5)/Km= 29.224 *29.224*3/36920=0.069 m.v. With;
Pressure at point 5: Н(5)=Н(4)+ dH(4-5)= 25.461+0.069=25.53 m. With;
Since the next 2 rows are asymmetrical, we find the consumption of the 3rd row as follows:
That is, B= Q(1)*Q(1)/H(4)= 3.625*3.625/25.461=0.516lev= √0.516 * 25.53= 3.629 l/s;(5)= 14.616 +3.629 =18.245 l /s= Q(5)*Q(5)/H(5)=13.04III= √13.04 * 25.53= 18.24 l/s;
Total flow rate from 3 rows: Q (3 rows) = 47.464 l/s;
Pressure loss in section 5-6:(5-6)=Q (6) *Q (6) *l(5-6)/Km= 47.464 *47.464 *3/36920=0.183 m.v. With;
Pressure at point 6: Н(6)=Н(5)+ dH(5-6)= 25.53+0.183=25.713 m.v. With;
IV= √13.04 * 25.713= 18.311 l/s;
Total flow rate from 4 rows: Q(4 rows) =65.775 l/s;
Thus, the calculated flow rate is 65.775 l/s, which meets the requirements of regulatory documents >65 l/s.
The required pressure at the beginning of the installation (near the fire pump) is calculated from the following components:
pressure in front of the “dictating” sprinkler;
pressure loss in the distribution pipeline;
pressure loss in the supply pipeline;
pressure loss in the control unit;
difference in elevation between the pump and the “dictating” sprinkler.
Pressure loss in the control unit:
.water.st.,
The required pressure that the pumping unit must provide is determined by the formula:
tr=24+4+8.45+(9.622)*0.2+9.622 =47.99 m.v.s.=0.48 MPa
Total water consumption for sprinkler fire extinguishing: (4 rows) = 65.775 l/s = 236.79 m3/h
Required pressure:
tr = 48 m.v.s. = 0.48 MPa
5. Equipment selection
Calculations were carried out taking into account the selected sprinkler SPOO-RUoO,74-R1/2/R57.VZ-“SPU-15”-bronze with an outlet diameter of 15 mm.
Taking into account the specifics of the facility (a unique multifunctional building with a large number of people), the complex pipeline system of the internal fire-fighting water supply system, the pumping unit is selected with a supply pressure reserve.
The extinguishing time is 60 minutes, which means that 234,000 liters of water must be supplied.
The design solution selected is the Irtysh-TsMK pump 150/400-55/4 speed 1500 rpm, which has a reserve of both H = 48 m.v.s. and Q. of the pump = 65 m.
The operating characteristics of the pump are shown in the figure.
Conclusion
This RGR presents the results of the studied methods for designing automatic fire extinguishing installations, and the calculations necessary for designing an automatic fire extinguishing installation.
Based on the results of hydraulic calculations, the placement of sprinklers was determined in order to achieve a water flow rate for fire extinguishing in the protected area of 65 l/s. To ensure the standard intensity of irrigation, a pressure of 48 m.w.c. will be required.
The equipment for the installations was selected based on the standard minimum irrigation intensity, calculated flow rates and required pressure.
