Dear Friends.. Need some help regarding foam sprinkler systems.
I need to design foam sprinkler system for a paintroom,which is a part of a large warehouse. I have considered water sprinklers for the rest of the warehouse and need foamsprrinklers for the paintroom area. The problem I face is that. for doing hydraulic calculations for foam sprinklered area, 1) how much area I have to consider? >From NFPA 16 its written total design area shall be 465 m2. for me it seems littl big as my entire room is only 500 m2. IS this the area to be considered???or am i missing something???? why such a big difference in area between watersprinkler(139m2) and foam sprinkler system.(465m2)?
