Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of fire spread mechanism analysis, and in particular to an analysis method, device and system for the fire spread mechanism of molten dripping materials. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of my country's economy, molten dripping materials (such as thermoplastic polymer materials) have been widely used in various industries such as manufacturing, transportation, textiles, and construction due to their low cost and high ductility. This material will melt and become a fluid state when heated. When the gravity of the molten droplets overcomes the surface tension, dripping will occur. When such molten dripping materials (such as polyethylene, polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene and polystyrene, etc.) are used in the insulation layer of the exterior wall of a building, decorative materials and wire insulation layer, if a fire occurs, the molten dripping material burns to produce molten droplets. These high-temperature droplets usually carry flames and ignite other combustible materials during the dripping process to form a new fire source, further accelerating the spread and development of the fire. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the fire spread mechanism of molten dripping materials in order to provide a scientific basis for scientifically controlling the molten dripping phenomenon in fires.
[0003] Prior art research on the fire spread mechanism of molten dripping materials has primarily focused on qualitative or semi-quantitative assessments of their dripping behavior, such as the UL-94 vertical burn test. However, these experimental results exhibit significant fluctuations, poor repeatability, and difficulty in quantitatively determining boundary conditions, making them incapable of providing effective data for numerical simulations. This has significantly hindered research on the fire spread mechanism of molten dripping materials.

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a method for analyzing the fire spread mechanism of molten dripping materials provided by one embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1As shown, the method may include the following steps:
[0029] Step 100: Select a target analysis model in the PFEM software, and input the solid phase pyrolysis parameters and the viscosity coefficient required for particle movement into the target analysis model;
[0030] Step 102: setting the initial conditions of the target analysis model in the fire spread process of the molten dripping material;
[0031] Step 104: setting boundary conditions for the target analysis model during the fire spread process of the molten dripping material;
[0032] Step 106 : numerically simulate the fire spread process of the molten dripping material using the target analysis model to obtain numerical simulation results of the fire spread of the molten dripping material, so as to analyze the fire spread mechanism of the molten dripping material.
[0033] In this embodiment, by inputting the solid-phase pyrolysis parameters and the viscosity coefficient required for particle movement into the target analysis model selected in the PFEM software, the fluid-solid coupling problem can be analyzed with the help of the PFEM software, so that the molten dripping of the molten dripping material can be better simulated. Then, the initial conditions and boundary conditions of the target analysis model in the fire spread process of the molten dripping material are set, so that the final numerical simulation results of the fire spread of the molten dripping material can be obtained, so as to effectively analyze the fire spread mechanism of the molten dripping material.
[0034] It should be noted that due to the heat-melting characteristics of molten dripping materials, the dripping of high-temperature molten droplets will ignite other flammable materials and increase the impact of fire. On the other hand, the molten droplets carry heat away from the material and will also affect the combustion of the material itself. In existing related studies, the impact of molten dripping behavior on fire spread is often ignored or simplified, so it is impossible to accurately predict the combustion and fire spread of molten dripping materials.
[0035] In addition, the current major fire numerical simulation software, such as FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator), cannot quantitatively analyze molten flow dripping, and therefore cannot accurately simulate the fire spread engineering of molten dripping materials. FDS needs to be developed or other numerical simulation methods need to be used to make up for the current shortcomings. PFEM, also known as the particle finite element method, is a commonly used numerical simulation method for analyzing fluid-structure interaction problems. It was developed by the International Center for Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) in Spain. PFEM can analyze fluid-structure interaction problems, including large-scale continuous deformation, coupled thermal effects, droplet breakup and separation, and has been proven to be a powerful tool for modeling and analyzing complex multidisciplinary problems in fluid and solid mechanics. It can effectively simulate the molten dripping of molten dripping materials.
[0036] Each step is described in detail below.
[0037] For step 100:
[0038] In one embodiment of the present invention, the solid-phase pyrolysis parameters are obtained by a thermogravimetric analyzer, a differential scanning calorimeter, a micro-combustion calorimeter, and a controlled atmosphere pyrolyzer, and the viscosity coefficient required for particle movement is obtained by a rheometer.
[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention, the solid-phase pyrolysis parameters include the reaction kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis of the molten dripping material, the reaction thermodynamic parameters of the pyrolysis of the molten dripping material, the combustion heat of the combustible phase products generated by the molten dripping material during the pyrolysis reaction, and the component density and thermal conductivity of the molten dripping material during the pyrolysis reaction; wherein the reaction kinetic parameters include the Arrhenius pre-exponential factor, activation energy, stoichiometric coefficient and residual carbon yield, and the reaction thermodynamic parameters include specific heat capacity and the heat absorbed or released by the reaction.
[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, a thermogravimetric analyzer is used to measure the mass loss data of the molten dripping material during the pyrolysis reaction to invert and obtain the reaction kinetic parameters;
[0041] Differential scanning calorimetry is used to measure the endothermic and exothermic data of molten dripping materials during the pyrolysis reaction to invert the reaction thermodynamic parameters;
[0042] The micro combustion calorimeter is used to measure the heat release data of the pyrolysis gas phase products of molten dripping materials when they are completely burned in excess oxygen, so as to invert the combustion heat of the combustible phase products.
[0043] The controlled atmosphere pyrolyzer is used to measure the back temperature, mass data and morphological data of molten dripping materials exposed to radiant heat, and to invert the component density and thermal conductivity by coupling the reaction kinetic parameters, reaction thermodynamic parameters and combustion heat of the combustible gas phase products obtained by inversion.
[0044] Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) can measure the mass loss of molten dripping materials during the pyrolysis reaction, and obtain the normalized mass loss (Normalized Mass) of the initial mass and the mass loss rate (Normalized Mass Loss Rate) curves as a function of time or temperature. Based on this, the reaction kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis of molten dripping materials can be inversely calculated, including the Arrhenius pre-exponential factor, activation energy, stoichiometric coefficient, and residual carbon yield.
[0045] Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) can measure the endothermic and exothermic behavior of molten dripping materials during the pyrolysis reaction. The curves of the heat flow and the integral of the heat flow normalized by the initial mass versus time or temperature can be obtained. From these curves, the thermodynamic parameters of the pyrolysis of molten dripping materials, including specific heat capacity and the amount of heat absorbed or released by the reaction, can be inversely calculated.
[0046] The Microscale Combustion Calorimeter (MCC) can measure the heat release rate (Heat Release Rate) and total heat release (Total Heat Release) of the pyrolysis gas phase products of the molten dripping material when they are completely burned in excess oxygen. The curve of the change with time or temperature can be used to inversely calculate the heat of combustion (Heat of Combustion) of the combustible gas phase products generated during the pyrolysis reaction of the molten dripping material.
[0047] The Controlled Atmosphere Pyrolysis Apparatus (CAPA II) simultaneously measures the back-temperature, mass, and morphological changes of samples exposed to radiant heat. This data, combined with the aforementioned "TGA-DSC-MCC" multi-step milligram-scale thermal analysis and absorption coefficient measurements, allows the inversion of component densities and thermal conductivity during the sample's pyrolysis evolution, enabling the development of an accurate solid-phase pyrolysis model.
[0048] Compared with the method of using a single experiment such as cone calorimetry to invert all physical parameter data, this method of milligram scale experiment-gram scale experiment (TGA-DSC-MCC-CAPA) can more accurately obtain the physical properties of molten dripping materials by decoupling the chemical reaction and heat and mass transfer process of the material, thereby increasing the accuracy of the inversion results.
[0049] That is, in the related art, usually only a controlled atmosphere pyrolyzer is used to roughly obtain the above-mentioned solid-phase pyrolysis parameters. However, the embodiments of the present invention use "TGA-DSC-MCC" to decouple the solid-phase pyrolysis parameters except for the component density and thermal conductivity. That is, these parameters are first accurately calculated. In this way, the component density and thermal conductivity finally calculated by CAPA will be more accurate, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the target analysis model simulation.
[0050] Regarding steps 102 and 104:
[0051] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is the structural diagram of the solid phase region and the gas phase region in the numerical simulation.
[0052] Solid phase: includes the viscosity coefficient (a function of temperature) required for solid phase pyrolysis (measured by the above device) and particle motion (caused by melt dripping), measured by a rheometer.
[0053] Gas phase: Solid pyrolysis products burn in the gas phase, and the conservation of mass, conservation of energy, and Navier-Stokes equations need to be solved.
[0054] The solid and gas phase calculations are interdependent, requiring the two computational modules to be coupled. Lagrangian finite element methods are used for solid phase simulations, while Euler descriptions are employed for the gas phase region. The Dirichlet-Neumann scheme is employed for the solid-gas interface.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, step 102 may specifically include:
[0056] The solid phase temperature (e.g., room temperature), gas phase temperature (e.g., room temperature), oxygen (e.g., 21%), and mass fraction of pyrolysis products (e.g., 0) of the molten dripping material are set; wherein, when the temperature of the solid-gas interface reaches the preset ignition temperature, the mass fraction of oxygen is set to 0, and the mass fraction of pyrolysis products is set to 1.
[0057] In one embodiment of the present invention, step 104 may specifically include:
[0058] The gas velocity and temperature gradient of the middle symmetry plane of the molten droplet material along the vertical direction are both set to 0. The solid phase region and the gas phase region are both regarded as rectangular parallelepipeds (the sizes of the two rectangular parallelepipeds are set during the simulation). The solid phase region is the region of the molten droplet material, and the solid phase region is located in the gas phase region.
[0059] The simulation of the igniter (not shown in the figure) is simplified to add a fixed heat flux value to the surface of the molten dripping material;
[0060] A constant uniform velocity was set at the bottom inlet of the gas phase region;
[0061] The relative pressure at the top outlet of the gas phase region was set to 0.
[0062] In the above embodiment, accurate numerical simulation results can be obtained by reasonably setting the initial conditions and boundary conditions.
[0063] In order to better model the Figure 5The measuring device shown in the figure includes a molten dripping material 1 to be measured, a fixing frame 2 coated with the molten dripping material 1 to be measured, a thermocouple 3 for measuring the back temperature of the molten dripping material 1 to be measured, an angle adjuster 4 connected to the fixing frame 2, a first frame 5 connected to the angle adjuster 4, a first electronic balance 6 supporting the first frame 5, a fixing base 7 supporting the first electronic balance 6, a second frame 8 connected to the fixing base 7, and a second electronic balance 9 fixed to the second frame 8. The portion of the fixing frame 2 in contact with the molten dripping material 1 to be measured is made of a heat-insulating material. The molten dripping material 1 to be measured is a rectangular parallelepiped with its front end face in contact with the air. The angle adjuster 4 is used to adjust the angle of the fixing frame 2 relative to the horizontal plane. The first electronic balance 6 is used to measure the mass change rate of the molten dripping material 1 to be measured. The second electronic balance 9 is used to measure the mass change rate of the molten droplet of the molten dripping material 1 to be measured.
[0064] In one embodiment of the present invention, after step 106, the above method may further include:
[0065] Obtain the actual results measured by the constructed molten dripping material fire spread parameter measurement device; wherein both the numerical simulation results and the actual results include the spatiotemporal distribution of the back temperature of the molten dripping material, the mass change rate of the molten dripping material, and the mass change rate of the molten droplet;
[0066] Compare numerical simulation results with actual results;
[0067] If the error between the numerical simulation results and the actual results is lower than the preset error range, it means that the accuracy of the target analysis model meets expectations.
[0068] In this example, a measurement device was constructed and the actual results obtained were compared with the numerical simulation results to verify the accuracy of the target analysis model. This target analysis model can also be used to simulate other molten dripping materials, reducing the cost of setting up actual combustion experiments.
