摘要

A severe tunnel fire frequently involves multiple fire sources and an obstacle blockage. This study uses FDS software and a full-size tunnel model (360 m × 10 m × 5 m) to investigate the behavior of dual-source fires in naturally ventilated tunnels with obstacle blockage, focusing on the effects of the obstacle blockage rate (α) and dual-source fire spacing (φ). The results show that as α increases, the hot smoke distribution on both sides of the burners changes from symmetric to asymmetric under constant φ; the two fire sources change from completely fused to completely separated as φ increases under constant α, and the maximum temperature beneath the ceiling between the fire sources gradually decreases. Based on α and φ, a formula for the maximum temperature under the ceiling and a segmented prediction formula for the longitudinal distribution of downstream temperature were developed. Error analysis further proved the reliability of the models.
