13th International Symposium on

Aerodynamics and Ventilation of Vehicle Tunnels (ISAVVT 13)

Imitate or Innovate 

The next event in this series will focus on physical, analytical or numerical methods of simulating tunnel aerodynamics and ventilation including validation and standardisation and also on tools tailored for use in the design and operation of ventilation systems. Example topics include:

  • physical and numerical models of airflows, pressures, temperatures and pollution
  • influence of tunnels on the environment - exhaust, dilution, dispersal
  • simulators of fire, smoke and visibility
  • methods of analysing pressure wave propagation and attenuation
  • full-scale and model-scale testing
  • algorithms for effective monitoring and control
  • validation of design tools and methodologies - actual system performance
  • basic design parameters - heat release rates, vehicle drag and emission, etc

Who Should Attend

The Symposium attracts a wide international audience and is an essential date in the diary for a wide range of engineers and project managers including those who are:

project engineers
constructors
equip. manufacturers		 tunnel operators
systems integrators
instrumentation engineers		 designers
consultants
rail vehicle manufacturers
government agencies research organisations universities

Taking a break to talk to each otherNetworking

Networking is an important element in BHR Group conferences and you will get plenty of opportunities to meet, speak and share your knowledge with other delegates, exhibitors, industry experts and suppliers.
