Fire Model Test on Temperature Field in the Rescue Station of an Extralong Railway Tunnel by Yanhua Zeng, Kelin Liu, Yong Fang, Xianfu Zhang, Yun Bai

“…The results show that (a) the temperature distribution along the tunnel is stable without ventilation, the temperature is lowest when the fire occurs 50 m from the entrance; (b) the fresh air stirred up by fans promotes burning and increases the temperature; (c) the chimney effect causes the temperature field to skew in an uphill direction; (d) the opening of both fans in the adit makes the high-temperature zone to connect through; and (e) the temperature increase at the rescue station can be divided into four stages, and the response of different fire source positions to the opening of fans is not consistent. …”
