Tunnel modelling :
the collaboration with the CETU
Atmospheric CFD modelling for environmental applications
at local scale,
History
• CETU: ventilation and environment team
• Technical service of the Equipment Ministry
• Defining state of art, methods for studying tunnels
• Conception of fire protection system
• Environmental studies around tunnels
Collaboration with the CEREA started in 2002
Modelling tools
Polair3D local: • RACM chemistry• Eulerian advection diffusion scheme
Reactive plume/box models• Street model, OSPM …
Mercure_Saturne reactive version
Dispersion around a tunnel portal Vehicle induces flows in a non-ventilated tunnel.
HVG passing produced a high frequency signal on flow velocity
Tunnel also filters vehicle drag effect and produced low frequency variations on the flow velocity
Dispersion around a tunnel portal
Pollutant escape occurs earlier in the street in the case of unsteady flows
Advection effects were found greater than turbulent ones.
Street concentration decrease is lower than 30% in unsteady cases
Lacour and al., UAQ 2003
Dispersion around a tunnel portal Street NO2 concentration increases
From 0% when the primary background pollution is high
Up to 100 % in case of ozone peaks
Ozone availability is a limitation factor for NO conversion near the exit
Dispersion around a tunnel portal Statistical analysis were made for 2 different urban aeras
Reactive models (OPSM1, OSPM2, TNO, Street) were compared
Dilution factors were established for NO2 reactive dispersion around tunnel portal

Dispersion around a tunnel portal Building affects plume geometry in this campaign
The validation of the CEREA model, developed for flat terrain, is not possible with these measurements.

Reactive NO2 model was used to study depollution effectiveness of catalytic walls.
A measurement campaign would be carried out by the CETE of Lille around a tunnel portal in Paris and used for validation purposes
