The Analysis of Smoke Detection on Performance of Smoke Exhaust System in Buildings with Atrium

Recently, plenty of large/public buildings have been completed in Taiwan. For bright indoor environment and comfortable feelings, these buildings often utilized lots of large spaces such as atria.
However, it is difficult to maintain tenable conditions within atria and large spaces in case of fire. Therefore, the alert of smoke detectors and the efficiency of smoke control systems are both very important when a fire occurred and people needed to evacuate.
In large space buildings, the smoke exhaust fan and smoke storage are major design concepts of the passive smoke management systems in order to maintain tenable conditions in means of egress.
In this research, the operation strategies of passive smoke management and fire detection systems in large space buildings will be systematically analyzed. The full-scale hot smoke test can be performed to evaluate the temperature distribution of smoke layer and the smoke descending rate at ABRI large space fire lab in Tainan. In the other hand, the beam detectors can not only detect smoke layer by fire more earlier but show excellent smoke rejection if they can be effectually connected with passive smoke control systems.
It is anticipated that through the execution of this research project, the concept developed in this study can be applied to improve the passive smoke management performance of large space buildings in Taiwan.
