Abstract |
Currently the climate change and other environmental problems due to the global warming go beyond the simple dimension and change the paradigm of life. The problem is that the abnormal climate phenomena will most likely occur more frequently in the future. So it will happen the unexpected emergency many times. Highly integrated urban area will be devastated if energy supply is in the hamper. Ensure the proper ratio of the emergency power system are reviewed to provide a basis for the energy security and system foundation in emergencies. This study investigates the principal building which will be considered relatively important in case of power cut to cities and analyzes the current architectural and fire fighting laws in relation to emergency power system. This is intended to set the appropriate emergency power system capacity according to the principal building energy consumption pattern. We calculated the demand factor to analyze the power consumption and emergency power system capacity achieved from the investigation sites. We don't have any exclusive criteria for power facilities right now. However, we think it is necessary to set the appropriated criteria though we consider the office building total demand factor ranges from 32 to 60%. |
