Abstract
In petrochemical plant facilities handling highly inflammable and combustible substances, it is necessary to preferentially review the frame type (closed or open) of the facility with consideration to the various fire conditions that may arise depending on the substances being handled. Accordingly, a fire simulation was carried out in this study for different fire conditions by assuming three frame types, and the spatial temperature distribution was analyzed for each condition. Various temperature distributions were found according to the fire type, fire source, and frame type of the facility. The results showed that petrochemical plant facilities handling diverse substances need to implement fire-resistant designs appropriate for the purpose of the facility by comprehensively considering the arrangement and frame type of the facility and the fire conditions that are likely to arise.
