Abstract
In tunnel operation ventilation systems, the arrangement of jet fans plays a decisive role in ensuring ventilation efficiency. Curved tunnels, due to their unique radius of curvature, exhibit significant differences in fan installation parameters and jet flow field distribution compared to traditional straight-line tunnels. In order to investigate the distinct characteristics, this research utilized computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation methods to analyze the ventilation performance of both an innovative, adjustable jet fan system and conventional jet fans within the context of curved tunnel configurations. The findings reveal that by adjusting the horizontal deflection angle of the novel jet fan, the flow field distribution can be effectively optimized, and the jet effect can be enhanced, thereby improving ventilation efficiency. Compared to traditional jet fans, the novel fan demonstrates a significantly greater capability in flow field optimization, especially when its horizontal deflection angle is adjusted, showing a trend where the jet effect initially increases and then decreases, with the longitudinal impact range being adjustable within a range of 5 m to 25 m.
