Optimising Ventilation and Safety in Underground Hydropower Projects
Effective ventilation and intelligent safety management are vital to protecting workers and maintaining efficiency in underground projects.
Ventilation is a key factor when controlling environmental comfort during tunnel construction. Inappropriate temperatures and humidity can reduce work efficiency and increase safety risks.
A recent study published in Tunnelling and Underground Space Technology investigates thermal and humidity conditions and their impact on workers’ comfort during the construction of underground tunnels in hot climates.
New research highlights how improved airflow modelling and data-driven safety systems can help construction teams keep temperatures – and risks – under control.
Author's summary: Optimising ventilation and safety in underground hydropower projects is crucial for worker protection and efficiency.
- Effective ventilation and safety management protect workers and maintain efficiency.
- Ventilation controls environmental comfort during tunnel construction.
- Inappropriate temperatures and humidity reduce work efficiency and increase safety risks.
