Abstract

This paper focuses on the distribution of passenger flow in Huoying Station, Line 13 of Beijing subway system. The transformation measures taken by Line 13 since operation are firstly summarized. Then the authors elaborate the facilities and equipment of this station, especially the node layout and passenger flow field. An optimization scheme is proposed to rapidly distribute the passenger flow in Huoying Station by adjusting the operation time of the escalator in the direction of Xizhimen. The authors adopt Queuing theory and Anylogic simulation software to simulate the original and the optimized schemes of Huoying Station to distribute the passenger flow. The results of the simulation indicate that the optimized scheme could effectively alleviate the traffic congestion in the hall of Huoying Station, and the pedestrian density in other places of the hall is lowered; passengers could move freely in the hall and no new congestion points would form. The rationality of the scheme is thus proved.
