An experimental study on the effects of blockage ratio and ventilation velocity on the heat release rate of tunnel fires
Kayili, Serkan; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet; Cahit Eralp, O. (SAGE Publications, 2011-8-26)
It is very important to accurately predict the fire-induced air velocity, temperature, and smoke concentrations in tunnel fires to design efficient fire protection systems. In this study a scaled model of a tunnel was constructed based on Froude number scaling and wood sticks with different configurations which were burned in a controlled environment. Model vehicles having a square base were built according to the wood crib theory. The impact of varying longitudinal ventilation velocity and the cross-sectio...
An experimental study on the performance of box type floating breakwaters with screens
Kürüm, Mustafa Onur; Ergin, Ayşen; Department of Civil Engineering (2008)
In the present thesis the performance of box type floating breakwaters (FBs) with screens under regular waves is examined experimentally in a wave flume. The experiments were conducted in the Coastal and Harbor Engineering Laboratory wave flume, Civil Engineering Department, Middle East Technical University, Ankara. The influence of incident wave characteristics and certain geometric characteristics, such as the width and draft of the structure, on its effciency is examined. Three different widths of the st...
AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE CHARACTERISTICS OFn HEPTANE ETHANOL MIXTURE POOL FIRE IN A REDUCED SCALE TUNNEL
Yamalı, Uluç; Shafee, Sina; Yozgatlıgil, Ahmet (2015-09-11)
Fire accidents in recent decades have drawn attention to safety issues associated with the design, construction and maintenance of tunnels. A reduced scale tunnel model constructed based on Froude scaling technique is used in the current work. Mixtures of n-heptane and ethanol are burned with ethanol volumetric fraction up to 30 percent and the longitudinal ventilation velocity varying from 0.5 to 2.5 m/s. The burning rates of the pool fires are measured using a precision load cell. The heat release rates o...
An experimental study on the behavior of box-shaped culverts buried in sand under dynamic excitations
Ülgen, Deniz; Özkan, M. Yener; Çetin, Kemal Önder; Department of Civil Engineering (2011)
Seismic safety of underground structures (culvert, subway, natural gas and water sewage systems) plays a major role in sustainable public safety and urban development. Very few experimental data are currently available and there is not generally accepted procedure to estimate the dynamic pressures acting on underground structures. This study aims to enhance the state of prevalent information necessary in understanding the dynamic behavior of box culverts and the stresses acting under dynamic excitations thr...
