Impact of Vehicles on Smoke Spread Dynamics in the Case of Fire in Road Tunnel
نویسندگان
چکیده
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 longitudinal ventilation is described focusing on the impact of vehicles on the smoke spread dynamics in the tunnel.

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 کاملA Methodology for Life Safety Assessment in Road Tunnel Fires
This paper presents a methodology for evaluating life safety risks in road tunnel fires. The methodology considers three realistic fire scenarios, smoke spread, occupant evacuation, and reliability of fire suppression systems. The three fire scenarios represent three variations of fire growth rates. The road tunnel in this study is assumed to have two traffic tubes, a longitudinal ventilation s...

The spent fuel assemblies (FAs) of Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant are planed to be transported by TK-13 casks. Each spent fuel transportation cask holds 12 spent FAs and has a thick steel container to provide shielding. The calculations have been performed for FAs with burn ups of 60 MWd/kg and a 3-years cooling period. The ANSYS®10.0 general finite element analysis package was se...
متن کاملSimulation of Smoke Emission from Fires in High-Rise Buildings Using the 3D Model Generated from 2-Dimensional Cadastral Data
Having a 3-Dimensional model of high-rise buildings can be used in disaster management such as fire cases to reduce casualties. The fundamental dilemma in 3D building modeling is the unavailability of suitable data sources. However, available cadastral 2D maps could be used as low-cost and attainable resources for 3D building modeling. Smoke will be a great threat to people's health during a f...
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 ...
