Optimum Fire Extinguishing Modeling using Impact Factor Analysis on Water Mist System of Pool Fire

In this study, the fire extinguishing experiment was performed using a water mist nozzle with variation of factors which affect on the extinguishing time. The variables were distance from nozzle center to fire location, droplet size, height of nozzle and opening or not. With the experimental data, interaction and sensitivity between factors were analysed with Mini tab and deduce a optimum model of fire extinguishing of water mist system. Based on the experiment and modeling of fire extinguishing with water mist system, the most important factor on extinguishing time is the distance from the center of nozzle to fire and the opening effect was small compare with other factors.
