Abstract

When rainfall occurred on road tunnel, that is likely to have influence upon ventilation force in the tunnels but the tunnels ventilation system did not consider factors of rainfall. Thus, this study investigated effects of rainfall upon ventilation force in the tunnels at no rainfall and changing of rainfall by 3 dimensional numerical method. Flow rate into road tunnels decreased as many as 52.34% at rainfall of 150 mm/hr, and pressure drop of road tunnel between entrance and exit decreased as many as 22.22%, so that rainfall had influence upon ventilation force in the tunnel. The number of necessary jet fan in road tunnels is 12 at no rainfall but, when rainfall of 80 mm/hr on road tunnels, the number of necessary jet fan in road tunnels is 16, when rainfall of 150 mm/hr on road tunnels, the number of necessary jet fan in road tunnels is 17. So, factor of rainfall should be considered at estimation of ventilation system of road tunnel.

강우가 도로터널에 발생될 경우 공기 중 존재하는 빗방울에 의해 도로터널 내 환기력은 영향을 받을 것이라 예상되지만, 국내 도로터널 환기시스템 설계 시에는 이러한 인자가 고려되지 않은 채 설계되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 비 강우 시와 시간 당 강우량을 변화시켜가며 강우가 도로터널 내 환기력에 미치는 영향을 3차원 수치해석 기법을 이용하여 알아본 결과 강우 시를 기준으로 시간 당 150 mm의 강우가 도로터널에 발생될 경우 도로터널 내부로 유입되는 공기의 유량은 52.34%만큼 감소되었고, 도로터널 입 출구의 압력차이는 22.22% 감소되어 나타나 강우에 의해 도로터널 내 환기력은 감소되는 것으로 나타났다. 시간당 강우량을 변화시켜가며 도로터널에 필요한 제트팬의 대수를 산정해본 결과 비 강우 시에는 12대인 반면 시간 당 강우량이 80 mm인 경우에는 16대, 150 mm 인 경우에는 17대의 제트팬이 필요한 것으로 나타나 도로터널의 환기시스템을 설계할 때에는 강우에 대한 인자가 추가되어야 한다.
