Metro rolling stock stagnation zones are quite long. This causes a number of difficulties in choosing and designing a water fire extinguishing system, as it directly affects the pressure loss in pipelines when water is supplied over such a long distance. That is why the task of this work is to design two different types of water fire extinguishing for metro dead ends and to perform hydraulic calculations, based on the results of which to choose the most suitable system for the object under study. The choice of a fire extinguishing system to ensure fire safety of dead ends of rolling stock sludge is made in the favor of the fire extinguishing system with high-pressure water spray.
