Abstract
Avoiding overheating of the supply air inside the fire-rated duct of pressurisation system is crucial for the escape and rescue of the building occupants during the development of a fire. The simulation scenarios are established concerning three cross-sectional dimensions of ducts and four inner air velocities. Based on the performance criteria of insulation specified in the international standard of ISO 834-1, the temperature fields of supply air inside different fire-rated ducts and corresponding safety are analysed based on the assumption that the exterior of fire-rated ducts is in a consistent state of being subjected to fire.
