Study on Fire Smoke Characteristic in Double-tube Road Tunnel with Complementary Ventilation System

Impact of Vehicles on Smoke Spread Dynamics in the Case of Fire in Road Tunnel

In this paper, the impact of vehicles in road tunnel on smoke spread in case of fire is illustrated using the FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator) system. FDS is a CFD-based fire field model capable to simulate fire in various environments capturing a big variety of physical processes related to fire. A set of simulations of fire in a 300 m long two-lane single directional road tunnel with longitudina...

Application of fuzzy control to a road tunnel ventilation system

Fire and smoke management in a uni-directional road tunnel for a congested traffic condition

Emergency smoke ventilation for a uni-directional traffic road tunnel is studied using a CFD modelling approach. Fire scenarios in an uphill ramp for congested traffic conditions have been considered. Based on a longitudinal smoke ventilation system with a damper smoke-extraction device on the ceiling soffit, the impact of longitudinal ventilation (LV) control, operation of fire suppression int...

Study on Applicability of FDS+Evac for Evacuation Modeling in Case of Road Tunnel Fire

In this study, fire in a short 2-lane single-directional road tunnel with two different traffic situations is considered and the impact of spread of fire and smoke on people evacuation is investigated. The FDS+Evac system used comprises of FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator), an advanced CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) fire field model supplemented by agent-based FDS evacuation model, Evac. Evac i...

Optimization of Ventilation Mode of Smoke Control System in High-rise Building Fire

In high-rise building fire, a large amount of fresh air will be pressurized into the fire floor when smoke ventilation and prevention system is used. The fresh air dilutes the smoke, but it also reduces the efficiency of mechanical exhaust. The assumption that vertical composition smoke control model (air curtain combined with pressurization and exhaust fan) is put forward. The mathematic model...
