位于马萨诸塞州波士顿的中央动脉/隧道（CA/T）项目是美国最大的州际公路项目。该项目预计耗资80亿美元，将产生50多车道公里的新行车隧道，并将在2010年设计年每天容纳30多万辆车辆。CA/T规划和设计工作的直接结果是纪念隧道火灾通风测试项目。最近在西弗吉尼亚州的一个全尺寸工厂完工。在几种通风配置下运行98起不同规模火灾的数据可在CD-ROM上获得，用于CA/T项目和全国其他隧道项目的重大设计改进和改进操作策略。关键词:1997年，隧道，地下，道路，美国，通风，火灾，成本:研讨会，ASHRAE交易，第103卷，第2部分，波士顿1997

The Central Artery/Tunnel (CA/T)project, in Boston, Massachusetts, is the largest interstate highway programme in the United States. Estimated at $8 billion, the project will generate more that 50 lane-km of new vehicular tunnels and will accommodate more than 300,000 vehicles per day in design year 2010. A direct result of the planning and design efforts on the CA/T is the Memorial Tunnel Fire Ventilation Test Program. recently completed in a full-size facility in West Virginia. The data from running 98 fires of various size under several ventilation configurations are available on CD-ROM set for major design refinements and improved operational strategies on the CA/T project and other tunnel programmes nationwide.KEYWORDS: year 1997, Tunnels, underground, roads, USA, ventilation, fire, costs
