Abstract: A system of virtue reality simulation on emergency evacuation around nuclear power plant is described. We simulated the evacuation process under different scenarios through modeling the influences of population distribution, human behavior, traffic infrastructure and weather condition of the Fuqing nuclear power plant. Major influencing factors on evacuation time were analyzed using the evacuation simulation system. The results indicated that congested roads play an important role in emergency evacuation time under typical accident scenarios. Meanwhile, the increasing fraction of private car usage would also increase the evacuation time.

Key words: nuclear power plant, emergency, evacuation time estimation (ETE), evacuation simulation syste
