Lecture 1
And TO Enter the Science Of the Fire We Must Know that it Depends On
the Fire Fighting Triangle ( Combustible Material – Oxygen –
Temperature ) and Then TO Make Fire Fighting We Must Break this
Triangle From Any Side :
WE Will Make Full Design For the Sprinkler System in the 2 Cases
C-Hazel System
2-Gaseous System
1-Co2 System
Now We Will Start the Design For the First Fire Fighting System Which
Is Sprinkler System :
Which IS Used By the Normal User ( 1 " or 1/1/2" )And Has the Following
Design Requirements
Which Is Used By the Civil Defense Department ( 2/1/2" ) And Has the
Following Design Requirements
- Low Pressure @ the High Levels . Which Is Solved By Raising the Pump
Pressure During the Design .
- High Pressure @ the Lower Levels . Which Is Solved By Using PRV
(Pressure Reducing Valve ) as per Shown in the Attached Sketch .
The Third System Which use the Water as a Suppression System is the Fire
Hydrant System Which Is Manual System But From Outside the Building.
The Fire Street Hydrant Is Used For Fire Fighting From Outside the Building
IT May Contain 2 Terminals or 3 Terminals Each Terminal is 250 GPM .
As Per Discussed that the Standard Length For the Hose is 30 Mt so the Street
Fire Hydrants IS Surronding the Building With Intermediate Distances 60 Mt
Each .
IS Used To Provide the System with Water From Outside the Building :
1- Tanks Design :
The FF Tanks Must Have Volume OF Water Which IS Enough TO
the Water Suppression System as Follows
1- Determine the Building Hazard .
2- From NFPA You Will Find the Following Tables :
a- Light Hazard 30-60 min
b- Ordinary Hazard 60-90 min
c- Extra Hazard 90-120 min
3- Calculate the Required Pump Flow From the Pump Hydraulic
Calculation
4- Multiply Calculated Flow By the Required Time To Get the
Required Volume .
V ( Volume In Gallon ) =Q ( Flow in GPM ) x T ( Time In Min )
Then we convert the volume From Gallon To M3 To Get the
required Height . ( X 3.785 / 1000 )
5- The Required Height For The FF Water as per Follows
3- To Calculate Hres as per the Cabinet Type ( Class I or III 6.9 Bar ) and (
Class II 4.5 Bar ) .
4- To Calculate HF we Determine the Longest Bath Between the Pump
and The Farthest Cabinet and Divide this Bath into Sections and then
Construct the Following Table AS PER EXPLAINED :
Psp1 =
Q sp3 = Q3 = Q2 + Q sp3
Q sp4 = Q4 = Q3 + Q sp4
Q= K x √ Kpipe =
Q5 = Q6 = Q5 + Q4
Q7= Q8 = Q7 + Q6
Hp = Hst + Hres + Hf
21- For the Static Head it is the Height Between the FF Pump & Point
Z
22- For the Residual Head It is PZ
23- For the Friction Head we Divide the Path Between the Pump And
Point Z @ Each Change In Diameter ( Since the Flow Is Constant
as Per Explained in the Lectures ) .
24- And then we Get the Friction Head From the Following Table as
per Explained .
