Effect of fine water mist system layout on electric vehicle fire suppression in underground garages
The increasing prevalence of electric vehicle fires means that the fire evolution characteristics and the fire suppression effects of fine water mist on these fires in underground garages must be quantitatively analyzed. This study experimentally explores electric vehicle fire suppression in an underground garage under three conditions: no fine water mist suppression, a top fine water mist spray system, and a combined top and bottom fine water mist spray system. The top nozzle sprays the water mist vertically downward. In contrast, the bottom nozzle directs the water mist toward the vehicle’s underside. The results show that the combined spray system can act directly on the bottom of the vehicle, slowing down the temperature rise. Moreover, at 1.7 m in front of the vehicle, the temperature is reduced from 306 ℃ to 69 ℃, i.e., by 77.5 %. Compared with the absence of a fine water mist system, the time required for radiation to drop to the safe value is reduced by 14.05 % by the top fine water mist system. In contrast, the combined top and bottom fine water mist system reduced the time required for radiation to drop to the safe value by 84.10 %. Under top spray conditions, the fine water mist spray reduced the concentration of various gases during battery pack combustion. Under combined top and bottom spray conditions, fine water mist suppressed the production of CO2, CO, and NO, while the amount of NO2 increased. Adding the fine water mist can reduce the temperature and radiation in the underground garage. However, it would increase the concentration of certain toxic gases. This study provides data support for designing the layout of fine water mist systems in underground garages and fire protection strategies for electric vehicles.
期刊介绍:
Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology is an international journal which publishes authoritative articles encompassing the development of innovative uses of underground space and the results of high quality research into improved, more cost-effective techniques for the planning, geo-investigation, design, construction, operation and maintenance of underground and earth-sheltered structures. The journal provides an effective vehicle for the improved worldwide exchange of information on developments in underground technology - and the experience gained from its use - and is strongly committed to publishing papers on the interdisciplinary aspects of creating, planning, and regulating underground space.
