This research aims to assess the effectiveness of fire extinguishers on ships and propose an enhanced parameterization approach.
Utilized numerical modeling with PyroSim software to simulate fire development in shipboard compartments.
Analyzed data on heat release rate and fire load from shipbuilding plants.
Classified compartments based on fire load characteristics and extinguisher capacity.
Confirmed that heat release rate increases uniformly in the early stage of fire across varying compartment areas.
Proposed a classification system for compartments that can improve fire extinguisher effectiveness.
Suggests that effective parameterization can reduce casualties and environmental damage.
