Analysis of predicted sprinkler activation time in automated car parkings

Abstract

In the past few years car parking has developed different technologies. Protection against fire must develop properly to ensure the minimum level of security and protection. Many studies regarding fire behavior in enclosed car parking were made. Fire suppression and smoke control it’s a common issues in this study. This paper is focused on the calculation methods and computational fluid dynamics models that can predict the activation time of sprinkler systems mounted on an enclosed automated car parking.
