Abstract

This paper describes smoke releasing calculation for a warehouse in a pharmaceutical industry. Fire protection for the warehouse consists of an automatic sprinkler and an internal hydrant box. Moreover, smoke release windows also should be provided for releasing the smoke to a location which is remote from the fire. A vent system shall be designed to slow, stop, or reverse the descent of a smoke layer produced by fire in a building, by exhausting the smoke to the exterior. Also, it shall be designed in accordance with the standard by calculating the vent area required to achieve a mass rate of flow through the vents that equal the mass rate of smoke production. Moreover, it shall limit the descent of the smoke layer to the design elevation of the smoke layer boundary. Air inlets shall be provided for supplying makeup air for vent systems. Air inlets consisting of louvers, doors, dampers, windows, shutters, or other approved openings shall be designed and constructed to provide passage of outdoor air into the building. The mass flows of smoke, fresh air inlet and window’s area required for releasing the smoke will be estimated with an assumption of the warehouse as a building that has a large space where the fire size is steady. The smoke releasing calculation has been done referred to ASHRAE 1999 and NFPA 2001 as well as SNI 03-657-2001 standard and the minimum cross section of the window’s area to vent the smoke is found 2.64 m , approximately. The calculation result based on the standard has been compared to the rule of thumb method, it gives 7.15 m 2 . 2 Keyword: Fire protections, smoke release, vent system.
