Abstract
Description
- The invention relates to a nozzle for a low-pressure fire extinguishing system, a low-pressure fire extinguishing system and to a method for extinguishing fire according to preambles of the enclosed claims.
- Fire extinguishing systems are important safety measures in public and industrial spaces. Numerous different nozzles and spray heads have been suggested in the prior art.
- Many prior art solutions propose systems and nozzles using high pressures for spraying the extinguishing liquid. Some of the high pressure systems use large amounts of water for extinguishing the fire, whereby the damages caused by extinguishing water may be significant, even greater than damages caused by fire.
- Fire extinguishing systems using low water pressure have been developed. An example of a low pressure system is described in
WO 95/11060 - Document
CN 200320102631.1 - An object of this invention is to minimise or even eliminate the disadvantages existing in the prior art.
- An object is also to provide a nozzle for low pressure extinguishing systems providing an improved extinguishing effect.
- A further object of the invention is to provide a method for extinguishing fire that can be used even in spaces where a large amount of extinguishing liquid can be harmful.
- These objects are attained with the present invention having the characteristics presented below in the characterising parts of the independent claims.
- A typical nozzle according to the present invention for a low-pressure fire extinguishing system using an extinguishing liquid comprises
- a first end and a second end, the first end comprising means for attaching the nozzle head to a fire extinguishing system,
- adjacent to the first end a first spraying level comprising at least one first nozzle head having a liquid channel for the extinguishing liquid with a slot-like opening, the diameter of the channel decreasing towards the opening, and
- in addition, a second spraying level comprising at least one second nozzle head having a liquid channel for the extinguishing liquid and at least two guide wings arranged into the liquid channel for bringing the extinguishing liquid into a rotary motion.
- A typical low-pressure fire extinguishing system according to the present invention and using extinguishing liquid comprises means for distributing the extinguishing liquid to a nozzle and at least one nozzle according to the present invention.
- A typical method according to the present invention for extinguishing fire comprises
- distributing an extinguishing liquid to a nozzle, the pressure of the extinguishing liquid being from 0.5 to 9 bar,
- supplying the extinguishing liquid to a space surrounding the nozzle through a first nozzle head arranged on a first spraying level and through a second nozzle head arranged on a second spraying level of the nozzle,
- increasing the pressure of the extinguishing liquid supplied through the first nozzle head by a channel having a decreasing diameter towards the opening of the nozzle head, and
- bringing the extinguishing liquid supplied through the second nozzle head into a rotary motion.
- Now it has been surprisingly found out that improved extinguishing results can be obtained with a nozzle comprising nozzle heads on two different spraying levels, where the first level nozzle heads create extinguishing sprays with increased pressure and the second level nozzle heads create a fine extinguishing fog. The nozzle according to the present invention is able to combine the advantages of known low pressure nozzles, i.e. low water consumption and creation of cooling and extinguishing fog below the nozzle, with stronger targeted water sprays, which provide more extinguishing power.
- The first and second spraying levels are separate from each other, and preferably situated adjacent to each other. However, it is possible that between the first and second spraying levels is arranged one or more third spraying levels, each third spraying level comprising at least one third nozzle head. The third nozzle head may be similar to first or second nozzle head.
- Furthermore, the second spraying level is preferably arranged adjacent to the second end of the nozzle.
- The first nozzle head also has a liquid channel for the extinguishing liquid, the channel leading to a slot-like opening. The diameter of the liquid channel decreases towards the opening, whereby the liquid pressure and the flow velocity of the extinguishing liquid are increased. The length of the liquid channel is typically 2-25 mm. The liquid channel diameter in the beginning of the liquid channel is typically around 8-11 mm, more typically about 10 mm, and the largest diameter of the slot-like, preferably elliptic, opening is typically 0.1 - 0.2 mm, more typically about 0.1 mm. The liquid channel decrease from the beginning of the liquid channel to the slot-like opening may be a decrease by tenth.
- The second nozzle head has a liquid channel for the extinguishing liquid leading to an outlet, from which the liquid is sprayed to the surrounding space. At least two guide wings are arranged into the liquid channel for bringing the extinguishing liquid into a rotary motion, so that it is discharged as a rotating conical spray, or so that the discharged spray progresses turning helically around its main axis. The spray that is discharged from the second nozzle thus comprises drops which are distributed in the discharge spray so that the frequency of the drops having a larger diameter is greater at the periphery of the discharge spray than in the inner part of it, and correspondingly, the frequency of the drops having a smaller diameter is greater in the inner part of the discharge spray than at its periphery. The discharge spray comprises drops that have a drop diameter of 0.1 - 1 mm, preferably 0.1 - 0.5 mm. The median size of the drop diameter increases from the inner part of the discharge spray to the periphery by at least 20 %, preferably by more than 50 %. For example, the drop diameter in the peripheral zone of the discharge spray is 0.25 - 0.35 mm and in the middle of the spray 0.15 - 0.25 mm. Second nozzle head is more closely described in
WO 95/11060 - In principle, one or both of the spraying levels may comprise only one nozzle head. Preferably, however, the nozzle comprises a plurality of first nozzle heads and/or second nozzle heads. This means that the first spraying level may comprise one nozzle head, while the second spraying level comprises a plurality of nozzle heads, or the first spraying level may comprise a plurality of nozzle heads, while the second spraying level comprises one nozzle head, or both the first spraying level and the second spraying level comprise a plurality of nozzle heads.

This means that the amount of individual nozzle heads on one spraying level is from 2 to 8, which guarantees effective fire extinguishing results and, at the same time, keeps the amount of used extinguishing liquid as small as possible.
- Normally, when the nozzle is used the extinguishing liquid is supplied through the nozzle at the level from 0.5 to 50 I/minute, preferably at the level from 1 to 10 1/minute. These amounts are so low that the damages caused by extinguishing liquid can be minimised. The improved structure of the nozzle ensures at the same time targeted and effective extinguishing sprays, so that the amount of the extinguishing liquid may be minimised without endangering the extinguishing efficiency.
- According to one embodiment of the present invention the longitudinal axis of the first nozzle head and/or the second nozzle head is arranged in an angle between 0° and 90°, preferably in an angle between 1° and 30°, in relation to a perpendicular line from the first end to the second end of the nozzle. It has been realised that use of these angles improve further the extinguishing efficiency of the nozzle and enable a targeted and specific sprays. It is possible that the longitudinal axes of the first nozzle head and second nozzle head may be arranged in different angles from each other in relation to a perpendicular line from the first end to the second end of the nozzle. Thus it is possible to still further optimise the orientation of the sprays and improve the extinguishing result.
- When the nozzle comprises a plurality of nozzles on the first and second spraying level, the distance of the individual nozzles from each other is 5 - 150 mm, preferably 10-80 mm. The nozzle heads in one level are usually spaced symmetrically on the outer periphery of the nozzle body.

This makes it possible to obtain a broad spray of extinguishing liquid which is at the same time rich in small mist particles or droplets.
- The nozzle may comprise also sensor means which monitor the surroundings and trigger the extinguishing action if a certain limit value is exceeded, or the nozzle may be actively connected to such sensor means. The sensor may be a temperature sensor, gas sensor or smoke sensor. The limit temperature that triggers the extinguishing action may be 57 - 260 °C, and it may be selected to suit the surroundings.
- According to one embodiment of the invention the fire extinguishing system comprises a plurality of nozzles having nozzle heads arranged on two spraying levels. The distance between the nozzles is typically 1 - 5 m, preferably 3 - 4 m, most preferably around 3.5 meters.
- According to one embodiment of the invention the pressure of the extinguishing liquid, distributed to the nozzle is at the pressure range from 5 to 8 bar. Typically water is used as extinguishing liquid. If needed, different additives may be added to the water in order to facilitate mist building and/or extinguishing action.
- The present invention is suitable for extinguishing fires for example in confined spaces, such as marine vessels, distribution substations, hotel rooms, churches, care and nursing homes, hospitals and museums.
- The invention is described in more detail with reference to the enclosed Figures, which are to be taken as purely schematical and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
