Full-scale fire tests in the underwater tunnel section model with sidewall smoke extraction

•Eight groups of fire tests up to 6.6 MW in a 150-m long full-scale underwater tunnel model.•Fire and smoke dynamics are revealed in tunnel with a unique sidewall extraction.•Sidewall extraction slows down the smoke spread and keeps a good stratification.•Propose a framework of establishing full-sca...
