The Future of Tunnel Ventilation Design: CFD and Beyond
How computational fluid dynamics is transforming the way we design ventilation systems for underground infrastructure — and what comes next.
Tunnel ventilation design has evolved significantly over the past decade. Traditional empirical methods are being supplemented — and in many cases replaced — by advanced CFD modelling that allows engineers to simulate fire scenarios, airflow patterns, and smoke behaviour with unprecedented accuracy. At Tomaers, we have applied these techniques across 25+ tunnel projects globally.
