SMOKE AND HEAT DETECTORS ARRANGEMENT IN HALLWAYS

Abstract

Fire protection systems present very complex real time systems that comprehend many different parts. Fire detectors present one of those parts. Fire detectors could be divided on several different ways depended on criteria. Very frequently used detectors in many fire protection systems were heat and smoke detectors. Their main role is to detect fire at early stage. Their number and arrangement in object is strictly regulated by proper standards. For some cases, there were certain differences between standards. This paper has written to show the potential arrangement of smoke and heat detectors in object with hallways realized by simulation in PyroSim 2012 simulator. Key words: detector, arrangement, simulation
