Title | Evaluation of Fire-Extinguishing Efficiency in Cloud Fire Alarm System and Traditional Fire Alarm System - An Example from Long Term Care Institutions | ||
Keyword | |||
Abstract | Owing to new technological advances, the era of the Internet of Things (IoT) is coming. In the traditional fire alarm system (hereinafter referred to as " FAS "), the alarm message only can display the in the machine. Now the cloud function can be added in the tranditional FAS, the alarm message could be delivered to all related parties in the same time. This study conducts a full-scale fire-fighting experiments to compare the actuation time differnece between the cloud FAS and the traditional FAS with portable fire extinguisher and Sprinkler system connected to the water supply. This study found when using traditional FAS, the first responder tries to use porttable fire extinguisher to suppress the fire, but the fire has been spread throughout more than two meters, the initial attack was given up and only wait for the activation of the Sprinkler system connected to the water supply. After 180 seconds of ignition, the fire was controlled but not completely suppressed. After 360 seconds of ignition, the fire was suppressed by porttable fire extinguisher. Cloud FAS could notify the user 35 seconds earlier than traditional FAS, the first responder could perform the initial attack by portable fire extinguisher successfully at the first moment. The result shows that with traditional FAS, it takes 360 seconds for fire suppression and with Cloud FAS, it only takes 95 seconds for fire suppresion. The time diffrence between two systems is 265 seconds. Cloud FAS could provide 73.6% more advanced warming time and attack time than traditional FAS. The Cloud FAS can perform the initial attack effectively and be applied in any place to reduce the casualty and property losses and improve public safety. Keywords: Cloud fire alarm system, Advanced warming, Fire suppression, and Sprinkler system connected to the water supply. |
