Description
本発明は、放水型消火設備に泡消火薬剤を用いた新規な放水型泡消火装置及び放水型泡消火方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a novel water discharge type foam fire extinguishing apparatus and a water discharge type foam fire extinguishing method using a foam fire extinguishing agent in a water discharge fire extinguishing facility.
火災発生時に自動的にスプリンクラーヘッドから水を放射して消火を行う消火設備として、従来から、水源に接続された送水ラインに配水管が接続され、その配水管から延び出た多数の巻出し管のそれぞれにスプリンクラーヘッドが接続されているような消火設備用スプリンクラー装置が知られている。 As fire extinguishing equipment that automatically radiates water from a sprinkler head in the event of a fire, a water distribution pipe has been connected to a water supply line connected to a water source, and a number of unwinding pipes extending from the water distribution pipe There is known a sprinkler device for fire extinguishing equipment in which a sprinkler head is connected to each of these.
この種のスプリンクラー装置においては、火災起動時のスプリンクラーヘッドの1個当りの放水圧力や放水量は消防法によりそれぞれ0.1MPaで80L/min以上と義務付けられている。 In this type of sprinkler device, the water discharge pressure and water discharge amount per sprinkler head at the start of fire is obliged to be 80 L / min or more at 0.1 MPa, respectively, according to the Fire Service Act.
しかしながら、実際の火災起動時には、放水圧力が0.25MPa以上になるスプリンクラーヘッドも存在し、そのときの放水量は200L/min以上にも達する。この放水量は消火に必要な放水量に対して過剰な量であり、そのような過剰に放水された水により生じる水損すなわち消火が必要な防御区画以外の場所が水浸しになったりするという水損が大きな問題になっている。 However, at the time of actual fire activation, there is also a sprinkler head in which the water discharge pressure becomes 0.25 MPa or more, and the water discharge amount at that time reaches 200 L / min or more. This amount of water discharge is excessive with respect to the amount of water required for extinguishing the fire, and the water loss caused by such excessively discharged water, that is, the water other than the defensive area where fire extinguishment is required, is flooded. Loss is a big problem.
これに対し、例えば特許文献1(特開平05−345045号公報)においては、火災起動時に水と共に消火薬剤等をスプリンクラーヘッドから放出させることにより消火効力を上げ、それにより消火に消費される単位時間当りの水量を減少させて水損を抑制する消火設備用スプリンクラー装置が提案されている。 On the other hand, for example, in Patent Document 1 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 05-345045), the fire extinguishing effect is increased by discharging a fire extinguishing agent and the like from the sprinkler head together with water at the time of fire activation, and thereby the unit time consumed for fire fighting A sprinkler device for fire extinguishing equipment that reduces water loss by reducing the amount of water per hit has been proposed.
しかしながら、上記特許文献1で提案されている消火設備用スプリンクラー装置では、水に0.2%の消火薬剤を混合させることが開示されており、また、水成膜泡原液(AFFF)を使用すれば油火災に対しても有効とされているが、その具体的な態様については検討されていなかった。 However, the sprinkler device for fire extinguishing equipment proposed in Patent Document 1 discloses that 0.2% of a fire extinguishing agent is mixed with water, and a water film forming foam stock solution (AFFF) is used. Although it is also effective against oil fires, its specific mode has not been studied.
そこで、本発明の目的は、広範囲に防護空間をカバーする散水性能と、木材等の普通火災以外に石油火災等の燃焼スピードが速く危険性の高い火災にも有効な消火性能と、を具備する消火装置及び消火方法を提供することにある。 Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide water spraying performance that covers a wide range of protective space, and fire extinguishing performance that is effective for high-risk fires with high combustion speed such as oil fires in addition to ordinary fires such as wood. It is providing a fire extinguishing apparatus and a fire extinguishing method.

図2の(a)は、放水型ヘッドが旋回する様子を説明するための図である。このように、本発明の放水型泡消火装置において放水型ヘッドを旋回可能に構成すれば、放水範囲が確実に拡大されることがわかる。 (A) of FIG. 2 is a figure for demonstrating a mode that a water discharge type head turns. Thus, it can be seen that if the water discharge type head is configured to be pivotable in the water discharge type fire extinguisher of the present invention, the water discharge range is reliably expanded.
また、図2の(b)は、床面に複数の放水型ヘッドを配置する態様を示す図である。このように、複数の放水型ヘッドを旋回可能に構成すれば、放水範囲が更に拡大されることがわかる。 Moreover, (b) of FIG. 2 is a figure which shows the aspect which arrange | positions a some water discharge type head on a floor surface. In this way, it can be seen that the water discharge range is further expanded if a plurality of water discharge type heads are configured to be able to turn.
更に図2の(c)は、屋内に本発明の放水型泡消火装置を用いて屋外の消火栓(手動)と連動させた態様を示す図である。この場合、例えば消火栓箱の上部に放水型ヘッドの機構部分(旋回部)を配置し、その上に放水型ヘッドを設置すればよく、これにより種々の火災に対する消火活動に適用することができる。 Furthermore, (c) of FIG. 2 is a figure which shows the aspect linked with the outdoor fire hydrant (manual) indoors using the water discharge type | formula fire extinguisher of this invention indoors. In this case, for example, the mechanism part (swivel part) of the water discharge type head may be disposed on the upper part of the fire hydrant box, and the water discharge type head may be installed on the mechanism part, thereby applying to fire extinguishing activities against various fires.
図1に示す構造の放水型泡消火装置1を用いて、可燃物を燃焼させて人為的に火災を発生させて消火試験を行った。ここでは、石油系可燃物として引火点が低く消火し難いn−ヘプタンを用い、樹脂系可燃物としてシンナー等の揮発性溶剤で希釈したアクリル系塗料を用いた。 Using the water discharge type foam fire extinguisher 1 having the structure shown in FIG. 1, a fire was artificially generated by burning combustible materials, and a fire extinguishing test was performed. Here, n-heptane, which has a low flash point and is difficult to extinguish, is used as the petroleum combustible material, and an acrylic paint diluted with a volatile solvent such as thinner is used as the resin combustible material.
具体的には、上記燃料に着火して燃焼させて火災を仮想し、泡消火薬剤であるヤマトプロテック(株)製の水成膜泡消火薬剤(組成:フッ素系界面活性剤)を0.5体積%、0.75体積%、1.0体積%、1.5体積%、2.0体積%、2.5体積%又は3.0体積%の濃度で水に混合させて混合水(水成膜泡水溶液)を生成した。 Specifically, the above-mentioned fuel is ignited and burned to simulate a fire, and a water film foam extinguishing agent (composition: fluorosurfactant) manufactured by Yamato Protech Co., Ltd., which is a foam extinguishing agent, is set to 0.00. Mixed water (5% by volume, 0.75% by volume, 1.0% by volume, 1.5% by volume, 2.0% by volume, 2.5% by volume or 3.0% by volume) Water film-forming foam aqueous solution).
上記のようにして得た混合水を、上記燃料が燃焼している箇所に放水(散布)し、消火にかかった時間を計測した。なお、混合水の散布密度は10L/min・m2とした。結果を図3に示した。図3は、散布密度を10L/min・m2と一定にした場合の、水成膜泡水溶液濃度と消火時間の関係を示すグラフである。 The mixed water obtained as described above was discharged (sprayed) to the place where the fuel was burning, and the time taken for extinguishing was measured. The spray density of the mixed water was 10 L / min · m 2 . The results are shown in FIG. FIG. 3 is a graph showing the relationship between the water film-forming foam aqueous solution concentration and the fire extinguishing time when the spraying density is kept constant at 10 L / min · m 2 .
図3に示すように、1.0〜3.0体積%の混合水の場合に、消火時間が略8秒以内と短縮できることがわかった。また、泡消火薬剤の濃度を増大させて約3.0体積%付近になると、消火時間が約6秒間となり、それ以上の短縮は見込めないことがわかった。
なお、泡消火薬剤を混合せずに水のみを放水した場合は、水の散布密度を2倍の20L/min・m2としなければ消火できず、また、10秒間以上かかった。
As shown in FIG. 3, it was found that the fire extinguishing time can be shortened to about 8 seconds or less in the case of 1.0 to 3.0% by volume of mixed water. Further, it was found that when the concentration of the foam fire extinguishing agent was increased to about 3.0% by volume, the fire extinguishing time was about 6 seconds, and further shortening could not be expected.
In addition, when only water was discharged without mixing the foam fire extinguishing agent, the water could not be extinguished unless the water spray density was doubled to 20 L / min · m 2, and it took 10 seconds or more.
次に、水成膜泡水溶液の濃度を0.5体積%と一定にし、散水密度と消火時間の関係を測定した。その結果を図4に示した。図4は、水成膜泡水溶液の濃度を0.5体積%と一定にした場合の、散水密度と消火時間の関係を示すグラフである。 Next, the density | concentration of water film-forming foam aqueous solution was made constant with 0.5 volume%, and the relationship between water spray density and fire extinguishing time was measured. The results are shown in FIG. FIG. 4 is a graph showing the relationship between the water spray density and the fire extinguishing time when the concentration of the water film-forming foam aqueous solution is kept constant at 0.5% by volume.
図4から、散水密度7L/min・m2以上あれば消火時間が短く(20秒間)十分な消火効果が得られ、散水密度が10L/min・m2以上あればその十分な消火効果が飽和していると判断された。また、図4から、散水密度が10〜12L/min・m2以上あれば十分な消火効果を確実に得られることがわかる。 From FIG. 4, if the watering density is 7 L / min · m 2 or more, the fire extinguishing time is short (20 seconds) and a sufficient fire extinguishing effect is obtained, and if the watering density is 10 L / min · m 2 or more, the sufficient fire extinguishing effect is saturated. It was determined that Moreover, it can be seen from FIG. 4 that if the water spray density is 10 to 12 L / min · m 2 or more, a sufficient fire extinguishing effect can be surely obtained.
なお、別途、木材を燃焼させて火災を仮想した消火実験では、本発明に基づいて水成膜泡水溶液を用いた場合は、水を用いた場合に比べて消火時間が30%短く、消火効果に優れることが確認できた。また、一旦消火してから再燃するまでの時間を測定する消火延焼防止実験では、本発明に基づいて水成膜泡水溶液を用いた場合は、水を用いた場合に比べて消火時間が35%短く、消火延焼防止効果にも優れることが確認できた。 In addition, in a fire extinguishing experiment in which fire is simulated by burning wood separately, the fire-extinguishing time is 30% shorter when the water film-forming foam aqueous solution is used according to the present invention than when water is used. It was confirmed that it was excellent. In addition, in the fire-extinguishing fire prevention experiment in which the time from extinguishing once to re-flamming is measured, the fire extinguishing time is 35% in the case of using the water-foaming foam aqueous solution based on the present invention compared to the case of using water. It was short and it was confirmed that the fire-extinguishing effect was excellent.
