Subsea tunnel needs to be built over 50 km long to connect between nations and continents. However there are only 19 tunnels longer than 5 km until recently. And there is no history of constructing and operating tunnel longer than 50 km. In Korea, subsea tunnels with a length of more than 50 km are being planned, such as Korea~Japan, Korea~China, Honam~Jeju subsea tunnels. Because of the geographical conditions of Korea, most of these tunnels are inter-contry tunnels. So technology preemption for the subsea tunnel construction is getting more and more important. Most of these subsea tunnels are ultra-long tunnels under high water pressure conditions. So new technologies are required such as ventilation and disaster prevention of high-speed tunnels, securing of structural stability under high pressure conditions, and pressure reduction in high-speed conditions. These technologies are different from those of ground tunnels. Therefore, this paper describes the ultra-long subsea tunnel design under high water pressure of maximum 16 bars through the Honam (land) - Jeju (island) virtual subsea project. We proposed a reasonable solution to various problems such as securing structural stability in high pressure condition and ventilation disaster prevention system of ultra long-tunnel.

In this study, we investigate simulation studies to confirm the removal of smoke through ventilation when the subway car is on fire and stopped in an underground subway tunnel, by using Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) which is being upgraded by NIST. The structure of subway tunnel and train for simulation modeling are based actual data from Seoul metropolitan subway. The main purpose of this study is to assure the removal efficiency of the ventilation when changing the ventilation capacity between 2.0 m/s and 3.0 m/s. The results of the study shows that carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$) are reduced by about 35% as the ventilation capacity is increased by 0.5 m/s. This study also performs the grid sensitivity verification of FDS for improved accuracy of the results. To find the effective size of the grid, three cases are simulated and the results are compared.

최근 급격히 장대화 하고 있는 차량 터널의 효율적 건설 및 운영을 위하여 관련 기본 요소 기술 중 특히 국내 기술 수준이 낙후한 분야 중의 하나인 환기 시스템 설계 기술에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 외국의 경우에 비하여 상대적으로 늦긴 했으나 1990년 환경처가 지하 공간 환경 기준 권고치를 설정 발표함으로써 보사부의 공중 위생법, 건설부의 도로법, 노동부 고시 등에 의한 관리 대상이던 터널 내 오염 물질도 직접적인 규제 대상이 되었다. (중략)

도로터널에서의 미분무수 소화시스템의 적용 가능성을 검토하기 위해 실물 화재 실험을 수행하였다. 적용된 화원은 실물 승용차 화재와 유류화재를 모사한 화원면적 $1.4m^2$의 heptane pool 화재이며, 기존 도로터널에 설치된 저압 물분무 시스템과 고압 미분부수 소화시스템과의 냉각효과 비교실험을 수행하였다. 도로터널 내의 환기조건을 구현하기 위해 실물모형 터널의 한 편에 터널 유속(0.9~3.8 m/sec 범위) 발생장치를 설치하였으며, 화원에서 하류 방향으로 터널 내 온도분포를 측정하였다. 실험 결과 1/5의 유량을 사용하는 고압 미분무수 소화시스템은 저압 물분무 시스템과 동등한 수준의 냉각효과를 보였다.

국내 에너지의 장기적인 수요상황을 볼 때 원자력 발전의 비중이 확대되는 것은 불가피 하므로 환경 친화적인 사용 후 핵연료의 관리 및 고준위 폐기물의 처분방안의 마련은 원자력의 개발만큼이나 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 방사성 폐기물의 효율적인 관리와 저장 및 열제거를 위하여 최적 환기시스템을 적용한 처분장 설계를 목적으로 여러 환기시스템 설계안을 비교 분석하였다. 분석결과, 8가지 중 case 4(병렬회로)와 case 6(혼합 Diagonal 회로)의 환기효율이 우수한 결과를 나타냈으며, 이와 같은 연구를 통해 환경 친화적인 처분장의 건설이 가능할 것이다.

This paper investigates the ventilation characteristics in a two-dimensional underground network junction composed of four main lines interconnected by eight ramps. Simple one-dimensional models cannot be applied to network junctions since there are interferences of traffic piston effects in the main lines and at the ramps. A numerical algorithm was developed to analyze the pressure and airflow distributions iteratively. The Darcy-Weisbach equation was used to calculate the piston effects by traffic flows, and a Hardy Cross iteration was conducted for network analysis at the interconnected junction. The results show interesting ventilation characteristics and CO concentration distributions depending on system parameters such as vehicle speed, tunnel diameter, and other junction configurations.

When the queue length of congestion vehicles in tunnel fire is extended beyond tunnel length, the capacity of smoke control system needs to be increased in line with ventilation resistance. However, the vehicle queue length is not defined, so a rational equation is necessary in current fire prevention guideline. This study is intended to propose an equation to calculate the queue length considering the number of vehicles in queue in tunnel fire and evaluate the applicability by tunnel length as well. When it comes to normal tunnel, it is necessary to compare the vehicle queue length with tunnel length up to the length of 1,200 m in a bid to avoid applying the vehicle queue length excessively in case of fire. As a result of evaluation of applicability to model a tunnel, saving the number of jet fan for smoke control appeared to be effective. Besides, quantitative approach to explain the vehicle queue length through the relationship between the percentage of large vehicles and tunnel length was presented. Consequently, when the queue length of the congestion vehicles exceeds the tunnel length in determining the capacity of smoke control system in case of fire, the number of vehicles beyond the tunnel length needs to be excluded from estimating the ventilation resistance by vehicles.

In automobile highway tunnels, in order to maintain a suitable environment for drivers and traffic, visibility in the tunnel must be maintained, and the concentrations of poisonous substances including carbon monoxide must be kept at or below allowable levels. For this reason, in long tunnels and tunnels with heavy traffic, ventilation facilities are installed. When the ventilation facilities are run at full capacity, the environment in the tunnel is obviously adequately maintained, but this consumes a great deal of electric power. Consequently, a central problem in highway tunnel ventilation control systems is to keep the pollution concentration at or below the allowable level, and thus provide a safe environment for traffic, while consuming as little electricity as possible. This paper introduces an operation method of longitudinal flow ventilation systems with jet-fan, dust collector and vertical ducts.
