语音报警在地铁系统的疏散中发挥着重要作用，而很少有研究关注列车车厢内的语音报警。在这项研究中，在车厢内的疏散的初始阶段的火灾警报的效果进行了研究。通过问卷调查和地铁列车模型火灾语音报警疏散实验，定量分析了地铁列车火灾语音报警响应阶段疏散人员的行为。根据问卷的分析，从危险信号（烟雾）计算的响应时间适合于评估疏散人员在响应阶段的反应。最小响应时间与平均响应时间之间的Pearson相关系数为0.96，表明第一个人的响应对其他疏散人员的行为有显著影响。此外，不同类别的实验之间的比较表明，危险信号（烟雾），火灾报警铃，和3-4个单位的语音报警与正常和舒适的音调可以提供有效的信息，疏散的初始阶段的疏散。此外，紧急快速的语音报警的效果还需要进一步调查。研究结果可为地铁火灾语音报警系统的设计提供参考，提高地铁火灾疏散效率。
Voice alarms play an important role in the evacuation of metro systems, while few studies focus on voice alarms inside train carriages. In this study, the effect of a fire warning on the initial phase of evacuation in a carriage is investigated. Both a questionnaire investigation and evacuation experiments with different fire voice alarms in a metro train model were conducted to quantitatively analyze the behaviors of evacuees during the response phase of evacuation. According to the analysis of the questionnaire, the response time calculated from the danger signal (smoke) is suitable for assessing the evacuees' response during the response phase. As indicated by the Pearson correlation coefficient between the minimum and mean response times (0.96), the first person's response has a significant influence on the behaviors of other evacuees. Moreover, comparisons among different categories of experiments demonstrate that the danger signal (smoke), fire alarm bell, and 3–4 units of a voice alarm with a normal and comfortable tone can deliver effective information to evacuees during the initial phase of evacuation. In addition, the effect of a voice alarm with an urgent and fast tone still needs further investigation. The results can help design fire voice alarms and improve the efficiency of evacuation in metro systems.
