    This document provides calculations for a smoke spill system for an atrium in a building with the name DCC 1. It calculates the required airflow for exhaust air smoke spill fans and fresh air makeup fans based on the atrium area, height, volume, and international standards. The required total exhaust airflow is determined to be 50,000 cfm and the recommended exhaust fans are 3 units of 30,000 cfm each. For the ground floor area, the required total exhaust and makeup airflows are 180,000 cfm and 100,000 cfm respectively, to be provided by multiple fans.

    Say: 50,000 cfm

    Engineering Design:
    1. The extraction point located above the highest occupied at Ground Floor Level.
    2. The extraction air is directed to discharge at the floor opening.
    3. Clause 15.3.7.1.b is clearly inadequate in this instance, as said 4 ACH method applies to sterile tube atrium type only.
    Calculation And Assumptions:
    1. Based on Clause 15.3.7.1.b for sterile tube atrium type (17 metre or less and volume more than 17000 m2)
    2. Than smoke exhaust rate is 4 air change/hour.
    3. Hence based on table, smoke extraction rate at 4 ACH is 50,000 cfm
    4. Based on 'Design of Smoke Management System' by ASHRAE and SFPE
    5.

    Zf = 0.166 Ec^0.4
    Using equation 10.9 of the SFPE guide
    where:
    Zf = limiting height above fuel
    Ec = convective heat release rate of fire = 1.5mW
    Therefore Zf = 0.166 (0.7 x 1500)^0.4
    = 2.68 metre
    Say 3.0 metre

    6.

    Since the limiting height is less than the clear height of 11.5 metre, latter is used for subsequent calculation.
    Using equation 10.8 of the SFPE guide
    m = 0.071 Ec^1/3 Z^5/3 + 0.0018 Ec
    where:
    m = mass rate of smoke production
    Z = height from top of fuel surface to bottom of smoke layer
    Therefore, m = (0.071 (0.7 x 1500)^1/3 x 11.5^5/3) + (0.0018 x 0.7 x 1500)
    = 44.12 kg/s

    7.

    Q = C m/e
    Using equation 10.12 of the SFPE guide
    where:
    Q = volumetric smoke production rate
    C = entraiment constant = 1
    e = density of plume gas = 1.2 kg/m3
    Therefore Q = 1 (44.12/1.2) m3/s
    = 36.8 M3/s @ 77,915 cfm
    Add Safety Factor (15%) = 89,602 cfm
    Say
    = 90,000 cfm

    8.

    Hence, 3 unit of Exhaust Smoke Spill Fan capacity 30,000 cfm (each) is selected located at Ground Floor Level
