As a result of the recent revision of the 'Guideline for Installation and Management of Fire Prevention Facility in Road Tunnels', the thermal buoyancy has to be taken into account when calculating the capacity of jet fans for smoke control in tunnel fires. However, there is no detailed methodologies for considering thermal buoyancy, so further study is needed. In this study, the thermal buoyancy in the tunnel is calculated by 3-D numerical simulation to consider the thermal buoyancy in case of fire in tunnels, and the relationship between heat buoyancy and vehicle drag, And the method of calculating the capacity of the jet fan for smoke control in tunnels. According to the analysis results, heat buoyancy acts as a resistance force in the case of a down-slope tunnel, and the pressure rise of jet fan for smoke control is not simply determined by the value of heat buoyancy at the entrance of the tunnel and the value of the vehicle drag at the exit. And it is analyzed that it is necessary to carry out a comprehensive review according to the location of the fire vehicle in tunnels.

본 연구에서는 최근 도심지 대심도 지하도로 및 침매터널등에서 중요성이 부각되고 있는 터널내 화재안전 설계를 위한 영상유고감지시스템의 성능평가를 수행하였다. 영상유고감지시스템(VIDS)의 성능 평가를 위하여 터널 내부에서 발생할 수 있는 유고상황을 5가지로 구분하여 보행자, 낙하물, 정지차량, 역주행, 연기발생등의 상황을 인위적으로 발생시켰으며 이에 따른 감지 능력을 평가하였다. 실험결과 2, 3회 걸친 지속적인 교정과 세부조정을 거친 후에는 보행자 98.3%, 낙하물 96.7%, 정지차량 100%, 역주행 100%, 연기감지 100%의 감지율을 나타내었으며 카메라의 설치거리 100m 이내에서 비교적 높은 감지율을 나타내었다. 영상유고감지기의 적용 신뢰도는 터널내 조도, 카메라의 설치 위치에 따른 영상 변화등에 의존적이었으나 대심도 터널등의 신속한 화재감지를 위한 대안으로 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

Recently, along with the continuous increase in the supply of electric vehicles, electric vehicle fire accidents are also showing a rapidly increasing trend. Electric vehicle fires last for a long time compared to fires in internal combustion engine vehicles and have problems with the risk of secondary explosions and the generation of large amounts of smoke. In particular, electric vehicle fires in underground roads, which are semi-enclosed spaces, may amplify the problems of existing electric vehicle fires. On the other hand, there are no domestic response guidelines for electric vehicle fires occurring inside underground roads. Therefore, an awareness of fire accidents was confirmed through a survey of the general public, and electric vehicle fire characteristics and primary considerations were derived from stakeholders related to electric vehicle fires in underpasses. Through this, the guidelines for responding to electric vehicle fires on underground roads were established.
