Abstract: CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulations were performed to predict the fire growth and smoke layer development in the underground ring road for the initial design of WUKESONG Culture and Sports Center, as the basketball match stadium for 2008 Olympic Games. Fire Dynamics Simulator version 3.10 of NIST was selected as the tool. A primary design and an improved safe and economical design for the smoke extraction system were verified by comparing the Available Safety Egress Time (ASET) provided by the smoke extraction system with the Required Safety Egress Time (RSET). A solution for the performance-based design of the fire smoke extraction system for such underground ring roads of sports stadium was presented for discussion.
