Abstract

The road tunnel install a vent for the purpose of ventilation and smoke control. Ventilation equipment capacity(number of jet fans) depends on from the condition that of the pressure and ventilation resistance. Pressure and the resistance under operating vehicle have affected on the drag coefficient. The drag coefficient of the tunnel have affected by the blockage effect and slipstream effects. However, when calculating the ventilation fan, are not properly consider taking into account such effects. Therefore, ventilation force may have been slightly overestimated. This paper describes the drag coefficient through a numerical analysis to calculate the equivalent resistance area that reflects the vehicle distance, and examined the equivalent resistance area. The ventilation coefficient corresponding to the result heavy vehicle mixing ratio of the present study was not clear. Equivalent resistance area had reduced by about 86% compared to the road design handbook current standards. Also it had analyzed and reduced to 62.2% compared to Korea Highway Corporation ventilation design criteria ratio, which is the old standard.

도로터널에서는 환기 및 제연을 목적으로 제연펜을 설치하고 있다. 제연펜 용량(제트팬 댓수)은 환기저항 및 승압력이 평형이 되는 상태에서 결정되게 된다. 터널에 운행중이거나 정지된 차량에 의한 승압력 및 저항력은 차량의 항력계수에 영향을 받게 된다. 터널에서의 항력계수는 슬립스트림 효과(또는 shadow effect)와 폐색효과에 영향을 받게 되며, 환기팬 및 제연팬 산정시 이와 같은 효과를 적절히 고려하지 못하고 있는 실정으로 교통 환기력를 과대평가하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 화재시 차량의 차간간격을 반영한 항력계수와 등가저항면적을 산정하기 위해서 터널에 실제로 차량이 정차하는 조건으로 모델링하여 수치해석을 통해 항력계수를 검토하였다. 본 연구 결과, 항력계수에 대형차량 혼입률이 미치는 영향은 명확하지 않으며, 등가저항면적은 현행 도로설계편람기준에 대비 약 86%, 또 구 기준인 한국도로공사 환기설계기준 대비 62.2%수준으로 감소하는 것으로 분석되었다.
