Abstract
Freeze-thaw disaster is an outstanding problem of geotechnical engineering in cold regions. The temperature field of tunnel surrounding rock in Qilian mountain Osaka hill was calculated according to the transient heat conduction differential equation, meanwhile the freezing conditions of tunnel surrounding rock was forecasted and analyzed after its opening. The study shows that the freeze-thaw environment has a great influence on the temperature distribution of surrounding rock. The tunnel wall and near the mouth of the cave area are more susceptible to the influence of the open ground temperature and air convection, thus the temperature changes violently , but the temperature distribution in surrounding rock tends to be dynamic stable equilibrium as time goes on. The research results can provide a reference for tunnel design and construction in cold regions.
