Fire safety

Fire safety is a new domain emerged in the early 90s to enable the design of buildings, structures, and infrastructure against destruction through fire. It also includes the provisions of building codes. This field is mostly associated with the design and efficient planning of a building, to reduce the destruction caused by fire. The branch of engineering that deals with it for the safety of the buildings from destruction of fire, is known as fire safety engineering.

(b) Bathroom sinks and some other fixtures include an overflow opening in the basin. This opening is located on the wall and near the top of the basin. The overflow opening serves two important functions: If the water tap is left on while the drain stopper is closed, the opening will channel water down into the drain opening rather than letting is spill out of the sink onto the floor. The overflow allows the sink to drain faster by introducing air into the system. A sink with a dimension given in Figure Q2(b), has water flows into it at a rate of 8 L/min. If the drain stopper is closed and water level in the sink remains constant, determine the average velocity of water flows through the 3.0 cm diameter overflow hole.

Ventilation: The plant must have adequate ventilation to prevent the buildup of oxygen gas, which can be flammable and cause potential hazards. Electrical equipment: All electrical equipment used in the plant must be designed for use in a hazardous environment. Structural requirements: The building must be designed to withstand the weight and pressure of the refrigeration and cryogenic systems, as well as the potential stresses caused by temperature fluctuations. Please elaborate it well, this is an indoor consideration when designing cryogenic plant. you can add more.
