Abstract :
Based on CFD method, this paper conducted simulation analysis of lorry and car fires for large cross-section road tunnel. The smoke distribution feature was discussed and the corresponding results of critical ventilation velocity were also compared with the values calculated by related empirical formula. It would be helpful to work out a ventilation system strategy for the road tunnel.
