Reduction in Fire Hazard in Corridors and Areas Adjoining Corridors Provided by Sprinklers
Full-scale fire tests were conducted in a noncombustible burn room - corridor - target room test facility using wooden cribs as the fuel load. The facility was instrumented to measure gas temperatures and concentrations of oxygen, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide. The combustion products were sampled at 1.5 m (5 ft) above the floor. The elevation is considered as a characteristic head height. Sprinklers were installed in the burn room and along the corridor. The sprinkler lines were instrumented with pressure switches and clocks to detect the activation time of the sprinklers. Depending on the test configuration, sprinklers were pressurized either with water for suppression ('wet') or air for measurement of activation time ('dry'). The sprinklers were allowed to activate automatically during the suppression tests.
