Being a practice area  that is based on fundamental fluid mechanics; click link here for downloadable information of the fundamentals explained; and thermodynamic principles refer to slide principles below explaining thermodynamics, this basis concludes the foundation of tunnel ventilation that may be seen as a core specific business for many organizations in the industry.

Our engineers at Hammam Industries & Co. & at CBI Industries have experience and appreciation with knowledge in civil, structural, construction, and operational constraints are implemented, and therefore the development of practical and cost-effective tunnel ventilation designs is achievable.

Scope of work for cost-effective tunnel ventilation activities include the following approach;
  • Engineering design and documentation of tunnel ventilation plant for air quality, normal operating heat and fire (smoke).
  • Test and measurement including aerodynamic and thermodynamic assessments, data acquisition and analysis, and experimental validation of simulations.

    Therefore the implementation of Advanced aerodynamic and thermodynamic programs are applied. 

  • Dynamic simulation of airflow and pollution in road and rail tunnel networks to provide certainty in design outcomes. (Ventilation control systems for tunnels are often a “learned” process, being adjusted once the tunnel is in operation. Dynamic simulation allows a more scientific and systematic approach to the initial setup, reducing the learning time and providing a more robust solution by choosing the most appropriate control loop setup).
  • Smart control system design coupling dynamic modelling of the tunnel aerodynamics with control algorithms including state-of-the-art predictor strategies.
  • Engineering design and scheme assessment of normal operation and emergency systems.
  • Design optimization for minimizing installed infrastructure and reducing operational energy costs.
  • Algorithms for predicting vehicle emissions.
  • Stack dispersion and near-field air quality including assessment of portal emissions using computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
  • Ventilation design for tunnel construction (mining and major temporary surface infrastructure for fume and dust control, and emergency management).
  • Risk assessment and fire life safety design.

Hi Fire and Smoke Modeling.

  • Official regulations and safety concerns require efficient ventilation and detection systems, software analysis provides cost-effective help for:
    • Understanding the spread of smoke and heat.
    • Designing efficient equipment for fire suppression.
    • Predicting the distribution of suppression agents.
    • Studying their interactions with the fire and smoke.
    • Identifying how fires develop.
    • Determining their effect on neighboring structures.
