Simulation of the course of evacuation in tunnel fire conditions by FDS+Evac

چکیده
In this paper, simulation of fire in a short 2-lane road tunnel and its evacuation are described. Two traffic situations in the tunnel and their impact on people evacuation in fire conditions are analyzed. For simulation of the tunnel fire, the FDS (Fire Dynamics Simulator) system, version 5.5.3 based on advanced CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) fire model is used. The evacuation of people in tunnel fire conditions is modeled by the FDS agent-based evacuation module Evac,

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...
متن کاملModelling of impact of fire on safe people evacuation in tunnel
In this paper, the use of Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) and its evacuation module, Evac for modelling fire and people evacuation in a road tunnel is illustrated. For given fire scenario and traffic situation in the tunnel, behaviour of individual evacuees as well as groups of evacuees is analyzed in order to demonstrate the impact of fire on people evacuation. Some specific features of the use ...
متن کاملFds+evac Evacuation Model: Recent Developments
This paper lists the recent developments in the FDS+Evac evacuation model. FDS+Evac is an agent based emergency egress simulation model which is embedded in the fire simulation program FDS, thus, enabling simultaneous simulation of the fire and egress processes. The main new feature of the evacuation module is better treatment of different behavioral types of the evacuees using herding type alg...
متن کاملA-Evac: the evacuation simulator for stochastic environment
We introduce an open-source software Aamks for fire risk assessment. This article focuses on a component of Aamks – an evacuation simulator named a-evac. A-evac models evacuation of humans in the fire environment produced by CFAST fire simulator. In the article we discuss the probabilistic evacuation approach, automatic planning of exit routes, the interactions amongst the moving evacuees and t...
متن کاملModelling the Evacuation of People from a Train on Fire in a Railway Tunnel
Fire safety of each structure consists in the creation of conditions for rapid and safe people evacuation, in the limitation of spread of fire and combustion products in the structure and the surroundings of the structure, and in the creation of conditions for rapid, effective and safe response actions of rescue units. In case of fire on a passenger train standing in a tunnel, a top priority ta...
