Analysis of Temperature and Heat Flow Characteristics in Underground Tunnel

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper summarizes the two methods which are experimental research and numerical simulation to thermal environment of the tunnel. Then the latest developments of the thermal environment research at home and overseas are introduced. At last a simplified model of thermal environment of underground tunnel is established. Through CFD software, the radial temperature distribution of tunnel surrounding rock and the axial temperature distribution of air at winter and summer conditions are obtained which provide basis for further research on thermal environment of underground tunnel.
