Fire Water Demand for Two Major Fires Simultaneously
(For locations with aggregate storage capacity > 30,000 KL as per OISD 117)
1. Floating Roof Tank Protection
Data:
- Total Storage Capacity: 21,980 m³
- No. of Tanks: 5
- Capacity per Tank: 4,396 m³
- Tank Diameter: 20 m
- Tank Height: 14 m
Cooling Water Flow Rate
Tank on fire (T1103): 159 m³/hr
Tanks within (R + 30 m): 475 m³/hr
Tank beyond (R + 30 m): 53 m³/hr
Total Cooling Water: 687 m³/hr
Foam Water Flow Rate
Rim Seal Area = 48.27 m²
Foam Solution Rate @ 12 lpm/m² = 34 m³/hr
Supplementary Hose Requirement
Hydrant Streams: 144 m³/hr
Monitor Streams (HVLR): 456 m³/hr
Total Supplementary: 600 m³/hr
Total Floating Roof Tank Requirement
687 + 34 + 600 = 1321 m³/hr
Total Design Fire Water Flow Rate
Design Case (Two Major Fires Simultaneously): 1321 + 1815 = 3136 m³/hr
Fire Water Storage Requirement
Storage Requirement (4 hours): 4 x 4176 = 16,704 m³
Tank Storage Provided
Gross Capacity: 17,462 m³
Working Capacity: 16,818 m³
