Study of Boeing 777 Evacuation Using a Finer-grid Civil Aircraft Evacuation Model

摘要

Study on civil aircraft emergency evacuation process by using of computer model is an effective way to validate and improve the evacuation performance of aircraft. In this paper, based on the characteristics of the aircraft structure and personnel evacuation, a finer-grid civil aircraft evacuation model (FGCAEM) is built. In this model, the effect of seat area, others and fire products on escape process is considered. Simulations reproduce typical characteristics of aircraft evacuation, such as the movement synchronization between adjacent pedestrians, route choice and so on. It is indicated that evacuation efficiency will be reduced significantly in case of fire, especially in the last period of the evacuation process. Results will be helpful for the design of security auxiliary equipment of airplane and promoting management procedure to emergency case.
