AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies do not fully consider the influence of tank size and combustion medium type when determining the parameters for mobile water spraying in vertical storage tanks, resulting in one-sided parameter selection and failing to accurately guide spraying operations under different working conditions.
By combining on-site mobile spraying experiments with fire dynamics simulation analysis of vertical storage tanks, a fire dynamics and fluid dynamics model of the storage tank is constructed to determine the heat radiation and temperature distribution of the storage tank, establish the relationship between the fixed water spraying flow rate and the highest temperature of the tank wall, and then calculate the mobile spraying flow rate.
It enabled accurate determination of the mobile water spray flow rate during fires in vertical storage tanks, provided technical support, and offered effective guidance for on-site firefighters' spraying operations.
