Experiments were carried out to investigate smoke movement in platform of a subway station which currently is in service in Pusan, the second largest city in Korea. The recently constructed underground station of the "bank type" (two platforms on both sides of track) which is the popular layout of platforms in Korea, is chosen in Pusan. The smoke generator and heater are used for simulating the smoke movement at the fire break in the platform located in the 2nd basement of the station. Video recordings were used to monitor smoke lowering. In this study, the movements of smoke in the underground station are investigated under various smoke-control operating modes. Three tests wire conducted according to its operating mode of the ventilation systems in the platform: no operation of any ventilation systems, smoke extraction mode in occurrence of fire (presently running mode) and full capacity of smoke extraction where all vents are activated in the platform. The results can be used for comparing with the numerical prediction results of fire subway stations.

본 연구는 지하철에서 화재발생시 최적의 제연모드 예측을 목적으로 수치해석을 수행하였다. 현재 국내 지하철 화재발생시 제연모드는 승강장 내 화재구역 배기, 비화재구역 급기 또는 정지로 설정 되어있다. 수치해석 조건은 2가지 국내 비상시 제연모드 및 발화 4분(승강장 피난허용시간, NFPA 130) 이전까지 승강장에서 배기를 하며, 발화 4분이 후 터널 배기로 전환되는 스위치모드의 3가지 경우에 대하여 비교 분석하였다. 승객 호흡높이(1.7 m)를 기준으로 열, 일산화탄소 및 가시거리를 비교하였다. 수치해석 결과 급기팬 작동은 연기를 교란시키고 확산시킬 수 있으며, 또한 승강장 및 터널 제연모드로 작동할 경우 승강장의 제연모드로만 작동한 경우에 비하여 연기 배출에 효과적임을 확인할 수 있었다.

This experiments are performed to investigate the effect of ventilation velocity on a high pressure water mist fire suppression in subway train. The experiment is conducted in half scale modeled train of a steel-welled enclosure (8.0m*2.4m*2.1m). The ventilation velocity is controlled by the ventilation duct through an inverter in the range of 0 to 2 m/s. The coverage-radius and an injection angle of an high pressure water mist system are measured. The mist nozzle with 7-injection holes is operated with pressure 80 bar. The heptane pool fires are used. The fire extinguishment times and the temperatures are measured for the ventilation velocities. In conclusion, because the momentum of injected water mist is more dominant than that of ventilation air, the characteristics of water mist, the fire extinguishment times and the temperatures are affected very little by ventilation velocity.

This paper is how to improve contaminated air by the pollutant from vehicles through ventilators and entrance at the underground station. We are looking for the environment management to take care of customers. There is two ventilation systems. One is natural ventilation system, the other is forced ventilation system. Usually, subway ventilators were installed low on the sidewalk. There are lots of craps on the ventilators, so these things interrupt influx of outside air. But the gas from the vehicles comes into the station through entrance. There is lots of noise while ventilations run. So we install the supply air vents away from the road for the customers. If it's difficult, we cover around the ventilator with clear plastic plates more than 2M heights. We also install silencer on the ventilators. We install the air curtains on the entrances to prevent dust from outside. Seoul Metropolitan has a plan to make 60M deep underground road. To improve underground road air quality, ventilators should be installed that consider the above information.

Researches on unused energy are being continued because of the limited fossil fuel and the destruction of environment. Therefore this study was peformed as follows. The collectable amount of exhausted heat for an air-conditioning was calculated by the subway thermal environment prediction program. And the electric power needed by conventional heat source equipments was compared with one by unused heat source equipments when the exhausted heat was used by heat pump in heating and hot water supplying. The results are summarized as follows; 1) Forced ventilation should be conducted to keep optimal temperature in subway tunnel in summer as well as in winter. According to the simulation, temperature in tunnel was higher than that on the ground in summer when the forced ventilation was conducted only in winter. 2) Ventilating time should be calculated out to the optimal condition for not only saving power of ventilation fan but reusing exhausted heat. By the simulation, it is certain that the exhausted heat should be eliminated in air-conditioning time. 3) The use of exhausted heat source heat pump could save 8% of electric power per hour in comparison with existing heat pump. It was based on a present heat generation and traffic for ventilating time of general air-conditioning, but could be different by ventilating time. 4) As the traffic increases up to 1.5 or 2 times, electric power consumption of the conventional heat pump increases to 11% or 13.5% per mean hour in comparison with that of the exhausted heat source heat pump, though all-day ventilation.

도시철도 지하역사에 설치되어 운영중인 승강장 안전문(PSD)은 승객의 추락방지 등 안전사고 예방에 큰 기여를 하고 있지만, 기존 승강장 선로 배기설비의 차단으로 인해, 일부 역사에서 승강장내 환기효율 저하문제를 발생시키고 있다. 본 연구에서는 PSD가 설치된 승강장의 기존 급배기 시스템의 환기효율 개선을 위해, 승강장과 대합실로 통하는 계단부 하부공간의 무효한 공간(창고)에 국부적인 하부 배기시스템을 추가하고, 승강장 배기용 덕트를 선로부의 기존 배기시스템에 연결하여 연동함으로써 기존 시스템에 무리 없이 승강장 실내환경을 개선하고자 하였다. 즉, PSD 설치이후 승강장 내부의 전체적인 기류혼합효과와 오염된 실내공기를 효율적으로 배출하기 위한 하부배기 방식을 연구하였다. 이러한 하부배기 방식의 효과를 예측하기 위하여, 서울지하철 2호선 역사를 선정하여 급배기량을 실측하고, 이를 바탕으로 전산수치해석 연구를 수행하여 개선효과를 예측해보았다. 하부 배기시스템의 적용은 승강장 기류의 지체상태 및 환기효율 특성을 나타내는 공기연령 측면에서 약 16.5%의 개선효과가 있는 것으로 분석되었다.

Management of indoor air quality of underground subway station is an important issue since the limited natural ventilation, limited sunshine incoming, and highly moistured atmosphere. The improvement in IAQ of platform is expected because most stations were installed with platform screen door currently, however, the poor air quality in tunnel might be affecting subway cabin indoor. In this study, we developed the air quality assessment model based on computational fluid dynamics. The geometry of air ventilation unit, seat, LCD monitors, and passengers were modeled using commercial software (Design Modeler) and fluid pattern and pollutants trajectories were analyzed by using CFX. We predicted the thermal comfort by predicted mean vote (PMV), distribution of CO2 and PM10 concentration. It is expected that this model can be used for the performance test of air cleaners which are under development.

Modern people stay at indoor places about 90% of a day. Radon-222 is a gas produced radioactive decay of the element radium. And, radon is one of the major indoor air pollutants moves into the underground space through various routes and is considered to cause lung c hurting the lung tissues, In this study, we measured the subway radon level at 9 stations o According to test results, we can figure out the concentration of radon by lines, times, and m points. So, it was found that ventilation conditions are the most important factors in the su quality. Finally, we suggested effective and economic management methods of air pollution subway.

A numerical study has been carried out on the optimization of an air cleaning system which was installed in a heating, ventilation and air conditioning system (HVAC) system of subway station for particle removal. Required particle removal efficiencies of three different air cleaning systems were calculated from ventilation rate, and indoor/outdoor concentration of PM10. Mass balance equations of PM10 were used to solve the required particle removal efficiencies. Fibrous filter was considered as an air cleaning system. Calculations were carried out about two different places which were waiting area and platform of subway station, respectively. This study proposed optimized design and operation condition of each air cleaning system.
