Abstract
The internal wall and road surface of tunnel form the background of roadblock or vehicle together, and have a significant influence on the safety and comfort of tunnel lighting. In this paper, the optical simulation program is adopted to analyze the correlation between the reflectivity of tunnel wall and such illumination indexes as luminance and illuminance of road surface inside a tunnel, as well as the visibility of small target etc. It shows from the study that: (1) The reflectivity of wall on the luminance gain level of road surface is closely related to the luminous intensity distribution of lamps. (2) Under the circumstance that the luminous intensity distribution of lamps is consistent, the linear relations basically exist among the reflectivity of wall, the illuminance and luminance of road surface and the luminance of wall, while the maximum growth slopes are 11.29, 0.45 and 11.50 respectively. (3) The field of vision of driver can be significantly improved by a higher reflectivity of wall. (4) Compared with the three illumination modes, the visibility of small target under the pro-beam lighting is highest (the minimum visibility is 10, and the highest visibility can reach 11.6), while the visibility of small target under the counter-beam lighting is the second-highest and the visibility of small target under the symmetric lighting is most non-obvious.
