Experimental Analysis of Building Space Constructions on Hot smoke Flow in Residential Fire

Based on the characteristics of spatial structure of residential units, the effect of building space construction on temperature raise and hot smoke flow in residential fire was analyzed on building model with simulating multiple floors and rooms.

The diffusion of hot smoke is prevented effectively by the down stand of the room; the temperature difference between indoor and outdoor should be higher than that of the room without down stand. When the open direction of door in non fire room is opposite to that of the door in fire room, there is much more hot smoke.
