Similarity Assessment of Substituting Air-Helium for Real Fire in BIPV Façade Fire-Induced Smoke Spread
One of the major concerns for fire and smoke experimental studies is providing the efficient but safe fire/smoke source. There are methods such as cold smoke and hot gas (hot smoke test), each of which has their specific limitations of cost and safety. This paper proposes an alternative method of helium smoke in simulating smoke spread involving BIPV façade. In this method, the full-scale model is scaled down by Froude modelling, and then helium smoke study is conducted to compare the result to small-scale real fire. Also, the small-scale real fire is compared to the full-scale real fire. And finally, to prove that the method works well, the small-scale helium test results are compared to the real scale fire study.
