BACKGROUND
Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to an air suction-type fire detection system and a detection method thereof, which are capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring. In particular, the present disclosure relates to an air suction-type fire detection system capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring. This system is designed to be fitted in various locations such as ESS rooms, server rooms, freezing warehouses and clean rooms, and other areas where it may not be possible to install a fire detector inside. It enables early and accurate determination of whether a fire have broken out, as well as the location of the fire.


Related Art

In a freezing warehouse with a closed chamber, dry air flows quickly due to an air conditioning system. However, in the event of a fire, the aforementioned conditions in the freezing warehouse can cause the fire to spread quickly. Therefore, early detection of the fire is crucial in order to minimize damage and loss to the warehouse.



FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B show examples of an air suction-type fire detection system being applied to an ESS room, while FIG. 2 shows an example of the same system being applied to a private house.



FIG. 3 shows a schematic diagram of an air suction-type fire detection system 1 installed in a freezing warehouse. As shown in FIG. 3, an air suction-type fire detector 10 is commonly employed in a freezing warehouse 2.


It is seen that such a prior air suction-type fire detection system 1 is configured to include a suction line 20, a connection line that links the suction line 20 and the fire detector 10, and a suction pump 31 that is furnished on one side of the connection line, which supplies power to draw air from inside the warehouse 2 into the suction line.


Further, the fire detector 10 is configured to determine whether or not a fire breaks out by detecting smoke from the air inside the warehouse, drawn through the suction line 20, in real time.


However, when a fire breaks out in the freezing warehouse 2, such an existing air suction-type fire detection system 1 just determines whether or not fire actually happened or not by detecting smoke but fails to identify a fire location.


Therefore, in respect of the air suction-type fire detection system, it is required to develop an improved air suction-type fire detection system that is capable of identifying a fire location, as well as an existence of fire.

In a certain case when describing the present disclosure, the content that is commonly known to the public but is largely irrelevant to the present disclosure is not described in order to avoid confusion.


Hereinafter, the configuration and function of an air suction-type fire detection system 100 capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring will be described. FIG. 4 is a block diagram of the air suction-type fire detection system 100 capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 5A is a schematic diagram of an air suction-type fire detection system capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 5B is a schematic diagram of an air suction-type fire detection system capable of early detection of a fire location through smoke concentration monitoring in partitioned chambers according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.


As shown in FIG. 4 and FIGS. 5A and 5B, it is seen that the air suction-type fire detection system 100 capable of identifying a fire location according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a suction line 20, a connection line 30, an air suction-type fire detector 10 and the like inside a chamber 2 needing fire detection.


As shown in FIG. 4, it is seen that an air suction-type fire detector 10 is fitted to the outside of the chamber 2 to draw air inside the chamber 2 and detect fire.


The suction line 20 is fitted to the inside of the chamber 2 to suck the air inside the chamber 2 in real time. Further, the connection line 30 links the suction line 20 and the fire detector 10.


As shown in FIG. 3, a pump 31 is furnished on one side of the connection line 30, supplying power to draw air from inside the chamber 2 into the suction line 20.


The air suction-type fire detector 10 measures smoke concentration changes of the drawn air in real time to determine an existence of fire and a fire location.


As shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B, it is seen that the suction line 20 has an end configured with a closed surface and an outer surface on which a plurality of suction holes 21 are formed spaced apart from each other in a certain interval. Thus, the air inside a warehouse 2 flows into the suction line 20 through the plurality of suction holes 21 and then into the air suction-type fire detection 10 through the connection line 30.


As shown in FIG. 4, it is seen that the air suction-type fire detector 10 according to the present disclosure includes a measurement portion 11 that measure a smoke concentration in the air drawn in real time and a determination portion 12 that determines an existence of fire and a fire location based on a smoke concentration change graph measured in the measurement portion 11.


This smoke concentration change graph has different slope and pattern depending on a position of the suction hole 21 into which smoke is initially drawn according to a fire location. In other words, as the position of the suction hole 21 into which smoke is initially drawn is further away from the closed surface 22, a slope value in the smoke concentration becomes higher.


When smoke is introduced through a suction hole 21 adjacent to the closed surface 22, the smoke is diluted with the air introduced through another suction hole 21. Thus, a slope value in the change of smoke concentration, measured in the air suction-type fire detector 10 is small. On the other hand, as the position of suction hole 21 becomes further away from the closed surface, the amount of the air to be diluted after inflow of a fire smoke becomes smaller. Thus, a slope value in the smoke concentration changes becomes increased.


Therefore, the determination portion 12 may determine an existence of fire based on a value of smoke concentration, and may also identify a fire location based on a slope value and pattern of such a smoke concentration change graph.


Further, the air suction-type fire detector 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include a monitoring portion 13 that displays a smoke concentration change graph measured in real time, and a database 14 that stores pre-measured smoke concentration change graphs depending on fire locations and creates a database.


In addition, the determination portion 12 matches the measured smoke concentration change graph with the smoke concentration change graphs depending on fire locations stored in the database 14 to determine a fire location.


The graphs showing changes in smoke concentration depending on fire locations, which are stored in the database 14, depict a state where the smoke is initially drawn into a plurality of respective suction holes.


In other words, the smoke concentration change graphs for states where smoke is initially drawn into a plurality of respective suction holes 21 are stored in advance and then converted into data.


Then, theses databased smoke concentration change graphs depending on fire locations are matched with the measured smoke concentration change graph to determine an actual location of a fire by retrieving the corresponding fire location value from any identical or similar graph stored in the database.



FIG. 6A is a schematic diagram showing a state that smoke is initially drawn through a suction hole 21 {circle around (1)} when a fire breaks out at a location {circle around (1)} according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 6B is a smoke concentration change graph to be measured in the air suction-type fire detector 10 in the state as shown in FIG. 6A.



FIG. 7A is a schematic diagram showing a state that smoke is initially drawn through a suction hole 21 {circle around (2)} when a fire breaks out at a location {circle around (2)} according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 7B is a smoke concentration change graph to be measured in the air suction-type fire detector 10 in the state as shown in FIG. 7A.



FIG. 8A is a schematic diagram showing a state that smoke is initially drawn through a suction hole 21 {circle around (3)} when a fire breaks out at a location {circle around (3)} according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 8B is a smoke concentration change graph measured in the air suction-type fire detector 10 in the state as shown in FIG. 8A.



FIG. 9 is a smoke concentration change graph depending on a fire location, pre-stored in the database 140 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.


As shown in FIG. 9, it is seen that smoke concentration change graphs depending on fire locations are stored in the database 14. That is, graphs of smoke concentration changes for states where smoke is initially drawn into the position {circle around (1)}, the position {circle around (2)} and the position {circle around (3)} respectively are stored. These smoke concentration change graphs for all of the suction holes 21 are stored and then converted into data.


The suction pump 31 is operated to introduce air inside the warehouse 2 through the suction hole 21 of the suction line 20 for introduction thereof into the air suction-type fire detector 10 through the connection line 30.


Then, the measurement portion 11 of the air suction-type fire detector 10 measures smoke concentrations in real time.


When a fire breaks out, smoke is initially drawn through any one of the plurality of suction holes 21 and then flows into the air suction-type fire detector 10.


Then, the determination portion 12 analyzes smoke concentration change graphs to detect an existence of fire and a fire location. That is, the determination portion 12 matches a measured smoke concentration change graph with the smoke concentration change graphs depending on fire locations, stored in the database 14 to determine the fire location.


That is, When a smoke concentration change graph, such as the one shown in FIG. 6B, is measured, it is matched with the smoke concentration change graph that corresponds to a fire location, as shown in FIG. 9, to determine the location of the fire as position {circle around (1)}. Further, when a graph, such as the one shown in FIG. 7B is measured, it is matched with the smoke concentration change graph that corresponds to a fire location as shown in FIG. 9 to determine the location of the fire as position {circle around (2)}. Yet further, when a smoke concentration change graph, such as the one shown in FIG. 8B is measured, it is matched with the smoke concentration change graph that corresponds to a fire location, as shown in FIG. 9 to determine the location of the position {circle around (3)}.



FIG. 10 shows comparison between a smoke concentration change graph measured in real time and a smoke concentration change graph depending on a fire location, pre-stored in the database according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.


As shown in FIG. 10, it is seen that when a fire breaks out actually at a particular location, a real-time smoke concentration change graph displayed on the monitoring portion 13 may not match the smoke concentration change graphs that correspond to fire locations, which are stored in the database 14. This is due to the fact that it depends on differences in a fire outbreak speed, an ignition source and the like, and circumstances.


To address this issue, according to the present disclosure, when the measured smoke concentration exceeds a preset concentration value, the determination portion 12 identifies that fire has broken out. At this time, a control portion 40 controls an open and shut damper 23 furnished to an end of the suction line 20 to be opened and a pump 31 to be rotated in a reverse direction and operated as a blower to completely discharge the air inside the suction line.



FIG. 11A is a schematic diagram showing a state where the open and shut damper 23 is opened when a smoke concentration exceeds a certain set concentration, and the pump 31 is operated as a blower to discharge smoke inside the suction line 20, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.


The damper 23 is opened for a set period of time and operated as a blower. Then, the control portion 40 closes the damper 23 and operates the pump 31 as a suction pump. The determination portion 12 compares and matches the smoke concentration change graph measured from the current time with the smoke concentration change graphs that correspond to fire locations stored in the database 14 in order to determine the location of the fire.



FIG. 11B is a schematic diagram showing a state where the open and shut damper 23 is closed again, which was opened for discharging smoke inside the suction line 20 as shown in FIG. 11A, and the pump is operated again as a suction pump again, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.



FIG. 12 shows a comparison between a smoke concentration change graph measured in real time and a smoke concentration change graph associated with a particular fire location stored in the database 14, according to a scenario of FIGS. 11A and 11B.


As shown in FIG. 12, as the open and shut damper 23 is controlled to open and the pump 31 is rotated in a reverse direction to be operated as a blower to completely discharge the air inside the suction line 20, a smoke concentration is sharply decreased. The damper 23 is opened for a set period of time and operated as a blower. Then, the control portion 40 closed the damper 23 and operates the pump 31 as a suction pump. When the determination portion 12 compares and matches the smoke concentration change graph measured from the current time with the smoke concentration change graphs that correspond to fire locations stored in the database 14 to determine the location of the fire, it is capable of accurately identifying a fir location by matching with the smoke concentration change graph that corresponds to on a fire location.


Further, the configuration and method of the embodiments as described above are not restrictively applied to the aforementioned apparatus and method. The whole or part of the respective embodiments may be selectively combined so as to make various modifications of the embodiments.
