Abstract

Fire spread is a very important issue during fires in tunnels. The elongated geometry of a tunnel with a relatively low ceiling height makes the flames and hot gases follow the ceiling over long distances, increasing the risk for fire spread. The use of ventilation in the tunnel as well as different types of vehicles, commodities, and materials influences the fire spread. This chapter contains both a summary of traditional ignition and fire spread theory and experiences especially related to situations in tunnels with risk for fire spread. Different aspects of spread and burning of liquids are presented and discussed.
