When a railway train enters a tunnel at high speed, a compression wave is formed in front of the train and propagates along the tunnel. The compression wave subsequently emerges from the exit of the tunnel, which causes an impulsive noise. In order to estimate the magnitudes of the noises and to effectively minimize them, the characteristics of the compression wave propagating in a tunnel must be understood. In the present paper, the experimental and analytical investigations on the attenuation and distortion of the propagating compression waves were carried out using a model tunnel. This facility is a kind of open-ended shock tube with a fast-opening gate valve instead of a general diaphragm. One-dimensional flow model employed in the present study could appropriately predict the strength of the compression wave, Mach number and flow velocity induced by the compression wave. The experimental results show that the strength of a compression wave decreases with the distance from the tunnel entrance. The decreasing rate of the wave strength and pressure gradient in the wave is strongly dependent on the strength of the initial compression wave at the tunnel entrance.

In order to investigate flow characteristics after water inrush from the working face in process of karst tunnel construction, numerical calculation for two class case studies of water inrush is carried out by using the FLUENT software on the background of Qiyueshan tunnel. For each class water inrush from the tunnel face, five cases under different water-inrush velocity are simulated and researched. Three probing lines are selected respectively in the left tunnel, cross passage, right tunnel and in the height direction of the tunnel centerline. The variation characteristics of velocity and pressure on each probing line under the five water-inrush velocities are analyzed. As for the selected four groups probing lines in the tunnels, the change rules of velocity and pressure on each group probing lines under the same water-inrush velocity are discussed. Finally, the water flow characteristics after inrush from the tunnel face are summarized by comparing the case studies. The results indicate that: (1) The velocity and pressure change greatly at the intersection area of the cross passage and the tunnels. (2) The velocity nearby the tunnel side wall is the minimum, while it is the maximum in the middle position. (3) The pressure value of every cross section in the tunnels is basically fixed. (4) As water-inrush velocity increases, the flow velocity and pressure in the tunnels also increase. The former is approximately proportional to their respective water-inrush velocity, while the latter is not. The research results provide a theoretical basis for making scientific and rational escape routes.

Results of measurements of surface pressure and of velocity field made on a full-scale 6 m cube in natural wind are reported. Comparisons are made with results from boundary-layer wind-tunnel studies reported in the literature. Two flow angles are reported; flow normal to a face of the cube (the $0^{\circ}$ case) and flow at $45^{\circ}$. In most comparisons, the spread of wind-tunnel results of pressure measurements spans the full-scale measurements. The exception to this is for the $0^{\circ}$ case where the roof and side-wall pressures at full-scale are more negative, and as a result of this the leeward wall pressures are also lower. The cause of this difference is postulated to be a Reynolds Number scale effect that affects flow reattachment. Measurements of velocity in the vicinity of the cube have been used to define the mean reattachment point on the roof centre line for the $0^{\circ}$ case, and the ground level reattachment point behind the cube for both $0^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$ flow. Comparisons are reported with another full-scale experiment and also with wind-tunnel experiments that indicate a possible dependency on turbulence levels in the approach flow.

터널 굴착시 막장의 안정성은 주변지반 및 터널 지보재의 안정성과 아울러 가장 중요하게 평가되어야 할 요소 중의 하나이다. 특히 터널이 지하수위 하에서 시공될 경우 지하수 흐름에 따라 터널 막장에서 발생하게 되는 침투력은 터널 막장의 안정성에 심각한 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 따라서 본 침투력은 터널 설계 및 시공시 터널 막장의 안정성 측면에서 중요하게 평가되어야 할 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 지하수위 하에서 터널이 시공될 경우 발생하는 침투력과 관련하여 터널 굴진율이 본 칩투력에 미치는 영향에 대해서 언급하였다. 터널 굴진율을 고려한 지하수 흐름해석을 위하여 유한요소 해석 프로그램이 개발되었다. 본 프로그램을 이용하여 터널 굴진율 및 지반의 투수특성이 터널 막장에 작용하는 침투력에 미치는 영향을 매개변수 분석을 통하여 연구하였다. 본 연구결과, 터널 굴진율은 터널 막장에 작용하는 침투력을 평가하는데 있어서 중요한 추가된 요소로 고려되어야 하며, 결론적으로 터널 막장의 안정성을 유지하기 위한 지보압의 합리적인 산정을 위한 방법론을 제시할 수 있었다.

In this study, ventilation flow rate and pressure rise through a tunnel are simulated numerically using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) for various conditions such as roughness height of the surface of tunnel, swirl angle and hub/tip ratio of jet fan, and entrance and exit effects. By using a modified wall function, friction factor can be predicted with respect to the Moody chart within 10% of error for the circular pipe flow and 15% for the present tunnel. For more accurate design, the effect of the swirl angle and hub/tip ratio of jet fan, which is not included in the theoretical equation of pressure rise by jet fan needs to be considered.

This study is aimed to analyze the floe patterns and thermal characteristics by computer simulation under the variations of fire strength for Daegu-Pahang Yimgo-4th tunnel, from which flow and heat distributions are predicted In the longitudinal tunnel. Though the results of numerical computations, followings are found; one is that the volume flow rate is discontinuously increasing as closer to fire location, and the other is that a critical design to get faster flow rate is required because of existence of backlayer flow for the high fire strength in view of safety for the people in fire of the tunnel.

A numerical analysis was done for a tunnel fire in a 1000m road tunnel. A cartesian coordinate was adopted to make a computational grid sytem which has 448,000 computational cells. A transient flow phenomena in the tunnel was simulated by the commercial code of PHEONICS from the ignition of fire to 600 seconds by the interval of 100 seconds. Total computational time of about 44 hours was required to get a convered solution in each time step. The purpose of this research is to analyze of the backlayering pheonomena and recirculation flow in a tunnel. The compuational results say that the backlayering does not happens near the fire of vehicle in this case because the vehicle fire is located at the outside of recirculation zone of flow ocuured near the jet fan. In this research, onset of backlayering pheonomena could be escaped if jet fan is set 95m in front of the the fire of vehicle.

본 연구에서는 터널구간에서 예상되는 지하수의 유동에 관한 현상을 규명하기 위하여 지하수 유동시스템의 거동을 3차원으로 해석하였으며, 터널구간의 설계와 시공기법을 선정하는데 해석견과를 활용토록 하고, 건설기간 중에 지하수 유동과 관련한 시공상의 장애를 사전에 파악하여 대책을 수립하는데 필요한 정보로 활용할 수 있도록 하였다. 대상터널은 편도 2차선인 2개의 평행터널인 법기터널 구간으로써 시추조사 및 투수시험을 실시하여 MODFLOW 모델의 매개변수를 추정하였다. 추정된 매개변수를 이용하여 MODFLOW모델에 의해서 굴착터널 내부의 지하수 유동을 해석하고 이로부터의 계산치와 관측치를 비교한 결과 두 값이 거의 일치하였다. 또한 터널굴착에 따라 지하수 유출량을 비교해 보면, 터널시점부터 종점까지 지하수 총유출량은 0.0269㎥/day/$m^2$로 추정되었다.

도심지 교통량의 증가로 터널구간의 정체현상을 해결하기 위해 기존의 터널을 활용하여 증축 혹은 개축하는 단면 확대공사가 최적의 대안으로 고려되고 있다. 기존의 단면 확대기술은 교통흐름을 차단하고 시공하나, 최근 프로텍터를 활용하여 교통흐름을 유지할 수 있는 교통류 보존형 터널 단면 확대기술이 개발되었다. 이 기술은 교통흐름을 보존하여 수많은 사회적 손실을 최소화 할 수 있으나, 교통흐름을 보존하기 위한 프로텍터의 설치 및 운영으로 경제성 측면에서 불리할 수밖에 없다. 이러한 단면 확대기술들의 경제성을 적절히 평가하기 위해서는 시공중 교통흐름을 고려한 사회적 손실비용을 고려할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 터널단면 확대 시공기술의 교통흐름을 고려한 사회적 손실비용을 산정하는 방법을 제시하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 그리고 매봉터널을 대상으로 사례연구를 수행하여 교통흐름에 따른 사회적 손실비용의 차이를 분석하는 것을 목표로 하였다.

This paper develops a flow control block for a hydraulic system of a tunnel boring machine. The flow control block is a necessary component to ensure stability in the operation of the hydraulic system. In order to know the pressure distribution of the flow control block, the flow analysis was performed using the ANSYS-CFX. It was confirmed that the pressure and flow rate were normally supplied to the hydraulic system even if one of the four ports of the flow control block was not operated. In order to evaluate the structural stability of the flow control block, structural analysis was performed using the ANSYS WORKBENCH. As a result, the safety factor of the flow control block is 1.54 and the structural stability is secured.
