Analysis Technique for Preventing Fires in Nuclear Power Plants and Other Facilities
For nuclear power plants or other facilities in which a fire could pose a significant risk to public health and safety, a conservative analysis technique was developed to identify and protect fire areas having the greatest safety importance. By performing a parametric heat balance for a room, temperature changes versus time were calculated as a function of fuel load, room size, and air flow rate. When combined with time-temperature criteria used in fire barrier testing, the parametric heat balance equations defined those combinations of fuel load and air flow for which barriers can be expected to survive under the most severe fire conditions. The results of this barrier analysis were expressed as a fire spread matrix for a particular nuclear power plant. By solving the matrix with a network flow computer model, an optimum fire protection strategy can be devised for ensuring the safety of the most critical plant areas. (ERA citation 06:014900)
