Question: How can i do Fire water Demand Hydraulic Calculation (steady state) for an unmanned platform?

Condition: There are no deluge system. No Fire Pump on the platform. Only 2 hydrants located on each deck (4 decks). The only source of fire water is the sea water during fire fighting which would be pumped out from the attending vessel to the header.

aespulgar,

Following references may be utilized for fire water hydraulic calculations:

Chapter 7 - Design Objectives, Chapter 8 -Plans & Hydraulic Calculations and Annex B - Hydraulic Calculations

of the NFPA Standard

NFPA 15 - Standard for Water Spray Fixed systems For Fire Protection
