Computer modelling of phenomena related to fire has achieved high degree of reliability and credibility. Existing fire simulators are capable to incorporate wide variety of physical processes into calculation and model the course of fire and its effects in large environments. Research will focus on modelling and visualization of fire in road tunnel using the FDS program system. Experimental data gathered during tests in a real motorway tunnel will be used for simulation validation. The automatic response of the tunnel control system to an emergency situation, the aim of which is to create and maintain conditions for safe evacuation of people, will also be the subject of the research. Simulations will be realized on high-performance computing infrastructure in Slovak Academy of Sciences.
