Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method and a device for protection against fumes generated by a fire and / or toxic especially in tunnels.
  • the present invention which is defined by the appended claims advantageously makes it possible to use the effects of thermal convection and balancing flow to block the smoke in the upper part of the tunnel in order to avoid as long as possible that the fumes do not go down and asphyxiate the people.
  • the main feature of the present invention is that by generating a water mist at the bottom of a closed volume or a tunnel, it acts directly on the heat transfers and the balancing flows.
  • the invention is also characterized by the implementation of a device capable of generating a water mist so as to limit its height to about 2 meters in the tunnel volume over its entire length or in a part thereof for the specific purpose of preventing the fallout of smoke and / or a toxic aerosol. (figure 1)
  • the process allows to "block” the fumes in the upper part of the tunnel preventing them from going down, allowing people to move safely, in a "saving” fog out of toxic fumes.
  • This process has the great advantage on the one hand, to secure people by preventing fumes from going down thanks to a "saving" water mist, on the other hand, by protecting them from heat and thermal radiation, and moreover not to disturb the extraction of fumes.
  • the Mont Blanc tunnel disaster highlighted the deadly effects caused by fumes and toxins resulting from a fire. Indeed, it is known that very quickly the fumes are destratifying and expanding in all the volume, this is mainly due to the pressure difference induced by the difference in temperature between the top and the bottom of the tunnel, which, as a result, separates into two volumes, a high volume and a low volume, which generates balancing flows. As a result, users are even very far from the disaster can be endangered not only by fumes but also by toxic gases or powders. To combat these effects, the present invention provides an advantageous, simple and effective method.
  • the method of the invention consists in creating, with the aid of a cloud of droplets of water generated at the bottom and which heavier than the ambient air, flow and form a cloud occupying the lower part of the tunnel, forming a "vault” preventing air movement between the floor and the ceiling of the tunnel.
  • This "vault” creating a significant pressure drop and forming an obstacle to fumes, limits the movement of air and smoke in the upper part of the tunnel above the water mist. We therefore understand the great interest of this process that promotes the evacuation of people and facilitates access to relief.
  • the method of the invention can give rise to various applications including to prevent the spread of fumes, reduce or even prevent the spread of chemical pollutants, especially to the lower part of a tunnel.
  • the process will therefore have the advantage of preventing the smoke from going down, but also to fight against all the effects of the fire, and in particular to prevent its expansion, because as the cloud of droplets encompass the part the fire will weaken, it is obvious that even if the droplets do not succeed in extinguishing it, it will be circumscribed rapidly, thus allowing the emergency services to approach it more easily.
  • the process will allow people in the tunnel, either to flee to the outside, or to join a shelter, Of course, it would be desirable that the shelter is also protected, as proposed by another recent patent, the combination of both would multiply the benefits.
  • the method provides for the implementation of a device for achieving the proposed purpose.
  • the tunnel device according to the invention is equipped with a device, which will therefore generate a cloud of droplets limited to a height allowing on the one hand to block the smoke in the upper part, on the other hand to allow people to move in. security in a cloud of droplets.
  • This device will work either on the total length of the tunnel, or by "Cantons” in this case it will work sequentially and the sequence can be mobile as needed.
  • the sequence corresponds to one or more cantons or sections serviced together or successively, the sequence must always be “calibrated” so that in all cases the cloud of droplets occupies the lower half of the tunnel to the right of the fire zone.
  • the device provides the possibility of implementing a programmed automaton so as to actuate the sections as and when required, by successive opening of the solenoid valves or manual valves.
  • the device of the invention operates in the following manner: detection of the fire by an appropriate means for example detection from the operator by camera, or by infrared which can be preceded or confirmed by a smoke and / or thermal detection.
  • the various detection means installed from one end to the other end of the tunnel give the information to the PLC that controls the opening of the zones to be misted, the PLC is programmed so that it opens systematically a section of fog upstream of people and / or vehicles in motion and closes the section downstream as and when advancement which has the advantage of protecting people and property and facilitate and more secure rescue intervention.
  • the device also provides for the installation of nozzles installed in the upper part of the tunnel, but the nozzles would be used only by the emergency services, when they would find it useful.
  • controller is programmed to implement the means for pressurizing and supplying water to the device.
  • the device provides that the user of the tunnel has the ability to trigger the water fog at the bottom of the tunnel by pressing one of the "punches” that will be arranged along the tunnel at a suitable distance.
  • a tunnel equipped with a device comprising: one or more main pipes which pass through the tunnel from one end to the other (1), secondary lines ( 2) connected in branches (3) of or main lines, solenoid valves (6) of the manual valves (16) of the water mist nozzles (4) installed on bypass tees (5) and located about 2 meters from height in the lower part of the tunnel on the secondary pipes and distributed to allow the water mist to cover only the lower part of the tunnel to prevent fumes from descending.
  • the device can operate manually, but it is possible and even advisable to operate it remotely automatically, or through an operator, in this case the device also comprises: a solenoid valve (6) controlled by a punch (17) and / or by a an automaton (8) and / or by an operator (18) remotely via an electric or optical or radio wire network (7), infrared, thermocouple (9), thermobelocimetric (10) and / or smoke detectors (11).
  • a non-pressurized tank, (14) a thermal and / or low or high pressure electric pumping unit (12) controlled by an automaton, a pressurized tank (13) controlled by an automaton .
  • Another possibility would be the installation of a reservoir at a height sufficient to supply the main network. It is also possible to install nozzles in the upper part of the tunnel which could only be used by the emergency services, and when the danger created by the fumes would be eliminated (15). There is a set of valves and valves enabling the connection to be made. from the device to the fire network when it exists, as well as the manual operation of the device, likewise the appropriate frost protection is provided, either by antifreeze, insulator or heater if necessary. It is of course possible to connect to the device, an additive injection system, either against fire or against pollution by chemical, a neutralizer for example, if necessary.
