Air Exchange across Staircase Windows in Protected Escape Route in Time of Fire

Abstract:

The article is focused on the analysis of air exchange by natural ventilation in the staircase area with elevator in the middle as a protected escape route. The article contains three variants of air exchange rate calculation that are based on the effect of the temperature difference and the effect of wind action. The result of these calculations is the verification if the staircase windows provide sufficient air exchange in the protected escape route to ensure the required level of protection for evacuees.
