Popis: The high wind pressure and velocity of the outdoor environment make super-high-rise tower crown space distinct from general tall through space. This segregation causes the crown space to be particularly prone to smoke short-circuiting influenced by the outside wind environment if a fire occurs indoors, and causes deficient smoke exhaust efficiency in a fire. The goal of this study was to investigate the general principle regarding the effect of the outdoor wind environment on smoke exhaust efficiency of such spaces under the crown space. We measured external wind direction and wind pressure in the smoke exhaust in the tower crown and developed setting plans for the exhaust outlets and make-up air inlet. Airpak was used to create the external wind environment and compare simulations to see if smoke short-circuiting occurred. We analyzed the causes, summarized solutions that did not result in short-circuiting of smoke flow, and made adjustments. We provide an ideal plan for the setting direction and vent velocity of the make-up air inlet and exhaust outlet in the crown spaces of super-tall towers to improve the design of smoke exhaust systems in such spaces.
