Jet fans

Jet fans in a road tunnel ventilation system serve several purposes to ensure tunnel safety and comfort. Here are some of the most important functions:

SMOKE EXHAUST IN CASE OF FIRE

One of the most important functions of the ventilation system is to control smoke in the event of a fire in the tunnel. Jet fans are strategically placed to exhaust smoke and improve visibility, making it easier for people and emergency services to enter and evacuate the tunnel.

VENTILATION

Jet fans help replace the air in the tunnel. By continuously introducing fresh air, the concentration of pollutants is reduced and the indoor environment is improved.

TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Temperatures in tunnels can rise due to the passage of vehicles. Jet fans can be used to control the temperature by removing heat and maintaining a comfortable environment for drivers and pedestrians.

ROAD USER SAFETY

The ventilation system, including jet fans, contributes to the overall safety of road users by maintaining air quality, controlling smoke in emergency situations and ensuring that there is sufficient oxygen.

The design and operation of the ventilation system, including the placement and use of jet fans, are critical to meeting safety standards and ensuring efficient tunnel operation, especially in emergency situations.
