基于WindNinja模型的山地林火风场与地形作用影响--以川西南为例

Effects of Wind Field and Terrain Interaction on Mountain Forest Fires Based on the WindNinja Model: a Case Study of Southwest Sichuan

  • 摘要: 本文利用CFD-WindNinja模型结合地形数据,对2020年3月30日四川省凉山州西昌市泸山山区附近发生的一次森林大火进行小尺度风场数值模拟,并初步探究了地形对风场的影响。结果表明:(1)小尺度模型模拟风场在精细化程度上表现较好,能够清晰地展现地形对山地风场的具体影响;(2)火场在迎风坡受风速加持,火线向山上蔓延趋势加大;(3)平行于U型宽谷的风场会产生强越山气流,垂直于V型窄谷的风场易引发林火过程中的“飞火”现象,平行于V型谷的风则在谷中加速;(4)山风在夜间盛行,谷风在白天盛行,且谷风转为山风时,风力的增强会加剧火势在复杂地形中的蔓延。

     

    Abstract: Using the CFD-WindNinja model in conjunction with topographical data, a small-scale wind field numerical simulation was conducted for a forest fire that occurred near the Lushan Mountains in Xichang City, Liangshan Prefecture, on March 30, 2020, and the influence of terrain on the wind field was explored. The results indicate that: (1) The small-scale model demonstrates high precision in simulating wind fields, clearly illustrating the specific effects of terrain on mountain wind fields. (2) On the windward slope, the fire site experiences increased wind speeds, intensifying the upward spread of the fireline. (3) Wind fields parallel to U-shaped wide valleys generate strong mountain-crossing airflows, while wind fields perpendicular to V-shaped narrow valleys are prone to causing "spot fires" during wildfire processes. Wind parallel to V-shaped valleys accelerates within the valley. (4) Mountain winds are prevalent at night, while valley winds are dominant during the day. Additionally, when valley winds transition to mountain winds, the increase in wind speed intensifies fire spread in complex terrains.
