Im Rahmen der schutzzielorientierten Brandschutzbemessung müssen, neben dem Nachweis der Wirksamkeit von Schutzmaßnahmen, Nachweise zur Einhaltung von in Abhängigkeit des Sicherheitsniveaus festgelegter Grenzwerte für die zulässige Wärmestrahlung, die Temperatur der oberen und unteren Rauchschicht, die toxische Konzentration von Rauchgasen und die Mindestsichtweite zum Schutz von Personen im Bauwerk erbracht werden.
Vehicle fires in tunnels can have catastrophic consequences for the road users, the property and traffic inffastructure. To support an evacuation planning, this study simulates the fire smoke toxicity and the smoke layer of a vehicle fire in a full-size test tunnel. The three dimensional prediction of the fire smoke toxicity in the test tunnel is realized by implementing the Fractional Effective Dose and the Fractional Summation concept in a CFD environment. The developed model facilitates to calculate fire scenarios for various types of tunnels and to quantify the hazard e.g. during an evacuation scenario.
The Fractional Effective Dose model was used to predict the fire smoke toxicity numerically. In this context fire tests were carried out for three different building materials: polyurethane, flame retardant polyurethane and polyvinyl chloride. The fire tests were performed for flaming and smoldering combustion. The aim of the fire tests was to determine the light extinction, the smoke density and the combustion products at varying oxygen concentrations, different temperatures and different irradiance levels. The fire tests were performed in the German DIN-tube and also in the Cone Calorimeter. Stoichiometric coefficients at varying oxygen concentrations and temperatures were determined from measurements. With these stoichiometric coefficients reaction equations were defined and implemented in the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) program, ANSYS CFX. The implemented reaction equations were used to account for different ventilation and temperature conditions in the simulation. The fire and smoke propagation was calculated numerically with CFD in the room corner test geometry. Equations to account for toxicity and light extinction were also implemented and were used to analyse the toxicity and the optical properties of fire smoke with CFD.
The time dependent thermal behavior is analyzed with FLUENT for the fluid as well as the solid region (concrete component) in case of a 100 MW n-heptane fire. To study the effect of parameters in mathematical-physical models several sensitivity studies were carried out to investigate the effect on the fluid flow as well as on the component. The influence of soot was additionally considered. FDS simulations as well as empirical calculations considering underlying assumptions are additionally used to examine the plausibility of results from the FLUENT simulations. This is an appropriate method if no experimental results are available. Recommendations are given for choosing parameters in mathematical-physical models e.g. radiation models. The results of the CFD investigations show that considering the influence of soot provides maximum temperatures which were 200 K lower than without soot.
