Fire in tunnelsProject data
• Title: Supporto alla realizzazione di sistemi intelligenti come metodi di analisi computazionale
• Company: Padova Ricerche scpa and Centro Internazionale di Scienze Meccaniche (CISM)
• Period: 01/03/2003 - 31/12/2008
• Collaborators: Javier Principe, Matías Ávila
2
Objectives• To study and approximate numerically
low-Mach number models• To model air flow generated by fire within
tunnels
3
Key numerical ingredients
• Stabilized FEM for low-Mach flows• Efficient search strategies to solve the
resulting nonlinear problem• Thermal coupling between the flow and
the concrete tunnel vault
